Crimp the terminal by squeezing the tool handles until the ratchet mechanism cycle has been
completed. Release the handles to open the jaws.
Note:
The tamper-proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.
8.
Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal
locator by pulling on the wire.
9.
Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper
crimp location.
10.
On some large O.D. wires, it may not be possible to
insert the wire with the tool partially closed. Those
wires should be inserted with the hand tool in the
open position. Insert the wire above the terminal in
the punch and against the wire stop, and then close
the tool. See Figure 6.
