2 Description
Cordless Electric Power Tool Kit 1976330-1 is a portable, battery powered hand tool kit featuring an integral die
set with two crimping chambers. (Refer to Figure 3.) These crimp chambers allow the tool operator to splice a
wide variety of wire sizes and combinations without having to remove and replace die sets. The kit contains a
crimp tool, a battery pack, a battery charger, and a carrying case.
Figure 1 shows the components of the tool. Splices are crimped by an integral die set with two crimping
chambers. The crimping head can be rotated 330° for better access to tight corners and other difficult working
conditions. The tool has an ergonomically-formed plastic housing and is powered by a rechargeable 3 Ah
lithium-ion battery. A red LED indicates battery charging, tool functions, and faults (see Table 5). A white LED
illuminates the work area. Pressing the control button triggers the crimping action.

Battery
The tool is powered by a removable, rechargeable battery pack, which is supplied with a recharging unit. The
recharging unit operates on 115 Vac line power, and charges the battery pack from full discharge to full charge
in approximately 30 minutes.
With a fully-charged battery pack installed in the tool, the operator places a splice onto the wire to be crimped.
The splice is then loaded into the appropriate crimp chamber of the tool. When the control button is pressed,
the motor starts, operating a hydraulic cylinder that pushes up on the die anvil, bottoming the dies. A special
