4.
Remove the crimped terminal. Inspect for proper crimp location,
and check for insulation damage.
5.
Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper insulation crimp
closure.
6.
If the insulation part of the crimp needs to be adjusted, first loosen
the M4 screw on the upper tool jaw. Then insert a 2.5mm hex
wrench (supplied) into the set screw at the top of the upper die.
See Figure 7. A clockwise (CW) rotation decreases insulation
crimp while a counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation increases
insulation crimp. After adjusting, retighten the M4 screw.
Note
: The tamper proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it
has been fully closed.
For the Battery Power Tool:
1.
Cycle the Battery Power Tool to crimp the terminal to the wire.
2.
Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal locator by pressing down on the wire stop and gently pulling on
the wire. The terminal locator can be in
either position.
3.
Visually inspect the crimped terminal for
proper crimp location.
Maintenance
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 in the tool head are protected with a thin coat of high
quality machine oil. Do not oil excessively. This tool was engineered for durability, but like any fine piece of
equipment, it needs cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of trouble-free crimping. The use of a
light oil, such as 30 weight automotive oil, every 5,000 crimps or monthly, will significantly enhance the tool life
and ensure a stable calibration. See Figure 8A or 8B for lubrication points.
4.
Store the tool in a clean and dry area when not in use.
