3. Unblocking the tool
•
IMPORTANT: Apply working force on the tool handles while
unblocking. It will prevent hurting yourself and possible damages
on the tool.
• In case of improper crimp, push the ratchet relief (A) in direction shown
to unblock the tool and remove obstruction before continuing with the
work.
With this tool
only
plugs of
appropriate type
have to be used. Crimping
plugs of unsuitable type may result with unsatisfactory characteristics
of crimped connections and eventually with damaging of the tools and
is to be strictly avoided.

4. Tool regulation procedure
• After prolonged work period, tool crimping performance can change
slightly due to final self-adjustment of the tools’ components. This
hand-tool is equipped with eccentric axle which allows periodical
adjustment of crimping force and tool recalibration to maintain correct
crimp performance.
1. Loosen and remove allen head screw (A) using a 2.5 mm allen
wrench.
2. Using a screw driver turn eccentric axle (B) and toothed adjustment
wheel (C) into new position.

5. Maintenance and repair
• For removal of dust, moisture and other contaminants usage of clean
brush or soft, lint-free cloth is recommended. Do not use aggressive
agents (thinner, alcohol, …) or hard objects that could damage the tool.
• Make sure that, during the work, bearing surfaces, shafts and pivot
points are protected with thin coat of quality machine or motor oil. Do
not oil excessively.
• When the tool is not in use, store it in a closed position – with handles
closed. That will keep other objects from becoming stuck between
crimping dies and damaging them. Keep the tool in a dry and clean
area.
• Tool itself also incorporates possibility of periodical adjustment of the
crimping force and tool recalibration via eccentric axle to maintain
correct crimp performance. Check item recalibration procedure.
Change of the tool insert
• If the tool insert is defect it is easily possible to change it. The tool
insert can be order as a spare part with the part-no. 09 45 801 0530.
• In order to place the tool insert in the tool frame, open the handles
completely.
• Unlock the tool insert (A) be removing the fixing screw (B) in front of the
tool and remove the tool insert from the tool frame.
• Insert the new tool insert and fix it with the fixing screw (B) in front of
