Locator Replacement
See the parts list on the last page of this document for
the proper locator order number. Follow the steps below
to replace the locator:
1.
Open the crimp hand tool.
2.
Squeeze gently on the lower area shown in Figure
6A with your thumb and index finger. The lower
tabs of the locator should disengage from the hand
tool.
3.
Lift and pull away from the hand tool. The top
locator hooks should slip out of the top slots easily.
See Figure 6A.
4.
To reinstall the new locator, make sure the hand
tool is in the open position.
5.
Press the red insert down as far as it will go as
shown in Figure 6B.
6.
Holding onto the lower part of the locator with your
thumb and index finger, insert the locator’s top hooks (2) into the hand tool’s top slots.
7.
Rotate the locator down, and press the lower tabs into the two bottom slots of the hand tool. To secure the
locator into place, the lower tabs must snap into place on the hand tool frame.
