1. Before connecting the tool head, make sure the pump and hose being used is working
properly, and adjusted to and rated at 10,000 psi. The use of a pump or hose not rated
at 10,000 psi working pressure may cause severe damage and result in personal injury.
2. Connect the tool head to the pump and hose, making sure all coupler connections are
secure. It is important that all connections are tight for tool to function properly.
3. Select appropriate compression die set for the connector and cable being used. The
“U” style Huskie HT-41 series dies are to be used with these tools
4. To insert the dies, depress the die release pin on the ram, and slide die into place. Then
lift release knob on top of “C” head and slide other die half in place. Be sure both die
halves are secure before operating the tool.
5. Position the connector between the dies and operate pump to hold connector in place.
Fully insert cable into the barrel of the connector and operate pump as described
in the pump operations manual until connector is fully crimped. For pumps that are
not equipped with a hold feature, connector and cable must be in alignment before
operating the pump.
6. Always be sure to keep couplers clean and caps in place when the tool is not being
used.
