1 Handles with integrated mechanism for the transmission and automatic lock
2 Release lever to release the automatic lock after an incorrect crimping
3 Toothed wheel to adjust the torque (with locking screw)
4 Insert pair
Replacing the insert pairs
There are a total of 3 insert pairs in the package (one of them is already inserted in the crimp pliers.
Both parts of the insert pair are labled respectively with “A”, “D” or “F”.
To remove an insert pair from the crimp pliers, open the crimp pliers and then simply pull the two parts
of the insert pair forward and out. Afterwards, insert the other desired insert pair fully into the crimp
pliers until it clicks into place.
Pay attention that you always insert the two matching parts of an insert pair into the crimp
pliers (which have the same labelling, e.g. “A”, “D” or “F”). Otherwise, you won’t be able to
carry out the crimping correctly, and you run the risk of damaging the crimp pliers or the
inserts.
Crimping process
Depending on the available crimp-type connector, select the suitable insert pair for the crimp pliers and
insert the crimp-type connector into the correct opening.
Press the handles (1) of the crimp pliers firmly together. The transmission mechanism in the handle
causes an increase of the torque.
If the torque selected via the toothed wheel (3) is attained, the forced lock and thus the handles are
automatically released and the crimp-type connector can be removed.
Adjusting the torque
First, unscrew the locking screw of the toothed wheel (3) completely.
In this process, the crimp pliers must not be pressed together; rather,
the handles have to be fully open.
Move the toothed wheel in the “-” direction to decrease the torque or
in the “+” direction to increase the torque.
Secure the toothed wheel (3) again with the screw that you un-
screwed at the beginning (under the toothed wheel there are three
threads (see circle in the image to the right) so that the adjustment of
the torque in a total of 18 stages is possible).
Releasing the automatic lock via the release lever
In the event of a wrong crimping, the automatic lock of the crimp pliers can be released before complet-
ing the process by pushing the release lever (2) toward the front side (inserts).
Afterwards, the handles can be moved apart and you can remove the faulty crimp-type connector.
Maintenance and cleaning
The product does not require any maintenance and should never be disassembled for any reason.
