2.  Check crimp diameter. 

  The measured crimp diameter must be within 0.010” of the published crimp 

diameter. 

  If the measured crimp diameter is too large, re-crimp to proper crimp diameter. If 

it is too small then discard.  

 
3.  Adjust the crimp diameter (if necessary). 

  If crimp diameter is not within specified crimp tolerance, an adjustment to the 

crimp set point value needs to be made.  

 

  To obtain a smaller crimp diameter, change 

Set Point Value

 to a smaller 

number.  

  To get a larger crimp diameter, change Set Point Value to a larger number. 

Changing the Set Point Value by approximately .02 will change crimp diameter 
.001”.  

  After the correct diameter is achieved, record this new setting in your crimp data 

manual for future reference. 

 

Maintenance 

 
This crimper requires minimal maintenance.  However, the following practices are 
recommended to ensure maximum reliability and service. 
 
Lubrication 
Lubricate sliding surfaces of die cone whenever they become shiny or approximately 
every 250 crimp cycles. Use

 

Lubrimatic Moly EP Grease or equivalent

 

 

 

Press CRIMP button to close crimper mouth and expose grease fittings.

 

  Shut power switch off. 

  Using grease gun, grease through both front and back die shoe grease fittings 

until grease appears on die cone surface. 

  Operate crimper through a full CRIMP and RETRACT cycle 5 times to distribute 

grease evenly. 

 
Check oil level. 

  Check hydraulic oil level in pump reservoir after every 10 hours of use.  

  Hydraulic oil should be visible in sight glass.  To check oil level, push CRIMP 

button to fully close crimp head.  If oil level drops below the site glass, oil is 
needed. 

  Add Tellus AW 46 (Grade 46) hydraulic oil or equivalent.
