PROPER USE GUIDELINES 

Cumulative trauma disorders can result from the prolonged use of manually powered hand tools. Hand tools 
are intended for occasional use and low-volume applications. A wide selection of powered application 
equipment is available for extended-use production operations. 

The Commercial Hand Crimping Tool is a commercial-grade tool, and is designed primarily for field installation, 
repair, maintenance work, or prototyping in industrial, commercial, or institutional applications. Product crimped 
with this tool meets the crimp height requirement for hand tools in the appropriate Application Specification 
(114-series), but may not comply with other feature parameters of the specification. 

TE Connectivity offers a variety of tools to satisfy your performance requirements. For additional information, 
contact Product Information at 800-522-6752.
