7 Operation
1. At first the handle needs to be closed slightly until the inserted contact is held in the inlet bevel of the
crimping profile.
2. Now the wire is inserted so that the insulation ends between the insulation barrel and the wire barrel
(see figure 6).

3. Now the cable must be held in this position and at the same time the handle must be closed
consistently. The integrated ratchet prevents premature opening and guarantees that the contacts are
crimped with the correct force. In Case of an operating fault the crimp tool can be opened prematurely by
unlocking the integrated ratchet. Therefore the handles are squeezed slightly and the ratchet release
turned anticlockwise with the help of a slotted screwdriver.
4. In the end the handle is opened again and the cable with the crimped contact can be removed (see
figure 7).
