Note: Check reference sizes after 5,000 crimps (or 6 months).
Visually inspect for loose hardware and broken or missing parts.
Measure conductor height with blade and point micrometer to prevent
false readings which might include crimp flash (burr).
Dimensions vary with different hand tools and operators. Closing handles
beyond ratchet release will reduce crimp height.
