Warranty
This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. All tools are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects
for a period of 30 days. Should such a defect occur, the tool will be repaired or exchanged free of charge. This
exchange will not be applicable to altered, misused, or damaged tools. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any
clamping, fixturing, or use of handle extensions voids this warranty.
ServiceGrade™ crimp hand tools are low cost tools used in field repair for a limited number of terminations. If a
high quality tool is required or a higher volume of terminations required, please purchase the corresponding
PremiumGrade™ crimp hand tool. A ServiceGrade™ crimp tool may or may not have a terminal locator and in
some case may need the locator removed to operate properly.
CAUTION
: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling.
CAUTIONS:
1.
Manually powered hand tools are intended for low volume or field repair. This tool is
NOT
intended for
production use. Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
2.
Insulated rubber handles are not protection against electrical shock.
NEVER
perform crimps on active
electrical circuits.
3.
Wear eye protection at all times.

Certification
Molex does not certify or re-certify ServiceGrade™ hand tools but rather supplies the following guidelines for
customers to maintain their hand tools.
%
This tool is qualified to pull force only. To re-certify, crimp a terminal to a wire, which has been stripped
12.7mm (1/2”) long, so there is no crimping of the insulation. Pull the terminal and wire at a rate no faster than
25mm (1.00”) per minute. See the Molex web site for the Quality Crimp Handbook for more information on pull
testing.
%
When the hand tool is no longer capable of achieving minimum pull force, it should be replaced.
