Die Set Installation
(Figure 5)
If dies to be installed in the tool require insulation adjustment, refer to the instruction sheet packaged with the
dies for adjustment, then proceed as follows:
Each set of dies consists of a moving die and a stationary die. Most moving dies have square corners and the
stationary dies have chamfered corners. Exceptions to this feature will be shown on instruction sheets covering
the use of the particular dies.
1. Remove the battery from the tool.
2. Position the stationary die in the stationary die holder. Turn the die retaining screw sufficiently to hold
the die in place. Do not tighten the screw.
3. Position the moving die in the moving die holder. Turn the die retaining screw sufficiently to hold the
die in place. Do not tighten the screw.

4. Replace the battery and check the alignment by pulsing the trigger to (slowly) close the dies, making
sure the anvil and indenter are properly aligned.
5. With the dies closed, tighten the die retaining screws.

Die Set Removal
To remove or change the dies, simply loosen the die retaining screws and remove the dies.
