OPERATION
The VC6FT-SP, VC63-SP, VC7-SP, & VC7FT-SP
hydraulic hand tools are ruggedly designed and
simple to operate. There are no dies to change out.
The tools have built in “nibs” within the head.
Two basic configurations used in VERSA-CRIMP

connectors are 1) the sleeve and 2) the open groove.
The following illustrations and commentary are
provided to show how the tool is operated when
installing these two types of connector configurations:
CONDUCTOR PREPARATION
Strip insulation from the conductor, being careful not
to nick the strands. A proper insulation stripping tool
or using the “Pencil” shaving method is
recommended. Thoroughly clean the conductor by
wire brushing until a bright shiny surface is obtained.
All oxides and foreign matter must be removed.
NOTE: Do not wire brush tin-plated copper
conductors or tinned connectors.
WARNING: Certain small service sleeve connectors
can severely damage the tool by becoming wedged
between nibs of the tool head. The connector should
always be centered in the tool as the nibs are slowly
advanced into position about the connector.

CAUTION
Small connectors may become
wedged between the nibs of the
tool. Center the connector
between the four nibs before
crimping. Failure to observe this
precaution can cause property
damage.
