OPERATION
Open the tool by first closing the jaws sufficiently for the
ratchet mechanism to release.
Crimping Terminals
1. Push up on the locator blade and position the terminal
with the barrel facing up into the color-coded nest with
front edge of the barrel against the locator. See Figure
1. Release the locator blade to hold the terminal in
position.
2. Partially close the tool to hold the terminal in place. See
Figure 2.
3. Insert the properly stripped wire into the terminal barrel. See Figure 2 and 3. The wires
end should butt against the wire stop position of the locator. Cycle the tool.
Note
: The tamper proof ratchet action will not release the tool
until it has been fully closed.
4. Lift the locator blade or wire stop and remove the crimped terminal. Inspect for proper
crimp location, and check for insulation closure. Locator is adjustable up and down to
keep terminals straight after crimping.
5. If the insulation part of the crimp needs to be adjusted, first loosen the M4 screw on the
bottom tool jaw, then insert a 3/32 hex wrench (supplied) into the bottom of the lower
die. See Figure 4. A clockwise (CW) rotation decreases insulation crimp while a
counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation increases insulation crimp. After adjusting retighten
the M4 screw.
