Specifications and accessories
ET1000 Crimp machine and accessories
NOTE:
Your new crimp machine
has been calibrated and filled with
hydraulic oil in the factory. Do not
remove any plugs or caps until
necessary. Excess air in the hydraulic
system may cause erratic cylinder
movement during retraction. Refer
to the Setup and Assembly section
for instructions on removing air
from the hydraulic system.

1.
Your new ET1000 crimp
machine comes disassembled
for ease of shipment. Before
use, the machine must be
assembled to the base with the
supplied quick release pins. Pins
should be installed from the
inside of the machine to avoid
any contact between the pins
and tooling during the crimping
process (See Figure A).
2.
Remove the plug from the top
cylinder port and install the
–06 size ORB,90 degree adapter
using 23-24 ft. lbs. assembly
torque. Orient the adapter so
that it points to the rear of the
crimp machine, away from the
operator.
3.
Install the pump connecting
hose assembly to the cylinder
adapter with the –06 size 37
degree swivel nut fittings using
18-20 ft. lbs. assembly torque.
4.
Do not exceed an 8” minimum
bend radius of the pump con-
necting hose when attaching the
hose to the pump and cylinder.
5.
If using your own pump, make
sure it has the requirements list-
ed in the Specifications section
above.
6.
Place the pump on the work
surface to either side of the
crimp machine. Install the 90
degree adapter to the pump
pressure port (Male NPTF threads
should be tightened following
the hex-marking procedure of 2
to 3 turns past hand tight).
7.
Remove excess air from the
hydraulic system. This can be
accomplished by placing the
pump at a higher level than the
cylinder and cycling the machine
approximately five times.
8.
Secure the machine frame to
a stable work surface using lag
screws or other suitable fasten-
ers.
