Controlled Cycle Crimping Tool
Operating, Maintenance and Inspection Instructions
NEW TOOLS – BEFORE PLACING INTO SERVICE
1. VISUALLY INSPECT TOOL
FOR DAMAGE.
All
PANDUIT
crimping tools are calibrated and inspected before they are
shipped from the factory. There is, however, a possibility of damage in
shipment. All new tools should therefore be inspected before being used.
2. CHECK DIE CLOSURE
3. CLEAN EXCESS OIL FROM
CRIMP DIES AND USE.
New tools are shipped factory lubricated, in protective cardboard cases. They
do not require extensive cleaning. After inspection, simply clean any excess
oil from the crimping dies and place into service.
CAUTION: Verify power is “OFF” before
working on wiring with this tool. The
plastic grips are for the user’s comfort—
and are not intended to insulate against
shock while working on live electrical
circuits.
WARNING: Controlled cycle device prevents tool from opening before cycle is completed.
Keep hands and other objects clear of pinch areas before closing.
ATTENTION: TO DISENGAGE CONTROLLED CYCLE DEVICE:
Turn the ratchet release screw counterclockwise and open handles.
The controlled cycle device will automatically reset after screw is released.
