This hand tool has an added feature that can be
converted from a right handed application to a left
handed application. It is necessary to reverse the
tooling if using the left handed application along with the
locator. Follow the steps below:
1. The locator must be removed before reversing the
tooling.
2. Remove the M3 BHCS which is holding the upper tooling.
3. Flip the upper tooling to the opposite side and replace the M3 BHCS.
Make sure the small markings on the front and back of the hand tool
frame match up and are on the outside of the hand tool frame. See
Figure 8 and 9.
4. Do the same thing with the lower tooling and tighten the M3 screws. Be
sure the small markings line up.
5. Reinstall the locator by following the Instructions in the locator
replacement section.
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of, and
responsible for, the following maintenance steps:
1. Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants with a clean brush, or soft, lint free cloth.
2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool.
3. Make certain all pins; pivot points and bearing surfaces are protected
with a thin coat of high quality machine oil. Do not oil excessively. The
tool was engineered for durability but like any other equipment it needs
cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of trouble free
crimping. Light oil (such as 30 weight automotive oil) used at the oil
points, every 5,000 crimps or 3 months, will significantly enhance the tool
life.
4. Wipe excess oil from hand tool, particularly from crimping area. Oil
transferred from the crimping area onto certain terminations may affect
the electrical characteristics of an application.
5. When tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in the crimping dies,
and store the tool in a clean, dry area.

force the handles open or
