Warranty
This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool is made of the best quality materials. All vital
components are long life tested. All tools are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for a period of 30
days. Should such a defect occur, we will repair or exchange the tool free of charge. This repair or exchange will
not be applicable to altered, misused, or damaged tools. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any clamping,
fixturing, or use of handle extensions voids this warranty.
CAUTION:
Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
CAUTIONS:
1.
Manually powered hand tools are intended for low volume or field repair. This tool is
NOT
intended for
production use. Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
2.
Insulated rubber handles are not protection against electrical shock.
3.
Wear eye protection at all times.
4.
Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool.
Notes:
1.
This tool should only be used for the terminals and wire gauges specified on this sheet.
2.
This tool is not adjustable for crimp height; however crimp force is adjustable (See instructions above).
Variations in tools, terminals, wire stranding, and insulation types may affect crimp height.
3.
This tool is intended for standard conductor sizes. It may not give a good insulation crimp support for all
insulation sizes.
4.
Molex does not repair hand tools (see warranty above). The replacement parts listed are the only parts
available for repair. If the handles or crimp tooling is damaged or worn, a new tool must be purchased.
5.
Pull force should be used as the final criteria for an acceptable crimp. Pull force is measured with no
influence from the insulation crimp. The insulation should be stripped long (1/2 in.) so the insulation grips
on the terminal do not grip the wire insulation or the conductor. Refer to Molex Quality Crimping
Handbook 63800-0029 for additional information on crimping and crimp testing.
6.
Molex does not certify crimp hand tools.
CAUTION
: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling.
