To remove the locator
1.
Open the crimp hand tool.
2.
Swing the existing locator open and away from the hand
tool.
3.
Firmly press down on the brass pivot shaft with your
thumb, while pulling the locator up. Slip the locator off the
top of the brass pivot shaft.
OPERATION
Open the tool by squeezing the handles together, at the end of the closing stroke, the ratchet mechanism will
release the handles, and the hand tool will spring open.
Loading and Crimping Terminals
Terminals may be loaded when locator is swung open, however when swinging the locator into crimping position,
the spring loaded locator may need to be pushed down to clear the tooling. Swing the terminal locator against the
crimp tool and turn lock up to lock the locator. Terminals may also be loaded easily while locator is up against the
crimp tool and locked. See Figure 3 and 4.
1.
Insert the terminal with the barrel into the nest
and the square edge of the flag facing out. Make
sure the back of the flag terminal is against the
locator. When the locator is against the crimp
tool and locked, the terminal is now in proper
position for crimping.
2.
Partially close the tool to hold the terminal in
place.
3.
Insert the properly stripped wire into the terminal
barrel. See Figure 5. The wire ends should butt
against the inside of the connector. See Figure
6. Cycle the tool.
Note
: The tamper proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.
