PROPER USE GUIDELINES
Cumulative Trauma Disorders can result from the prolonged use of manually powered hand tools. Hand tools are intended for occasional use
and low volume applications. A wide selection of powered application equipment for extended-use, production operations is available.

1. INTRODUCTION
SDE-SA Hand Tool Assembly 91391-1 consists of
SDE-SA Frame Assembly 9-1478240-0 and die set
assembly 91391-2. See Figure 1. The tool is used to
crimp 30-20 AWG Micro MATE-N-LOK* Pin and
Socket Contacts.
Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in
millimeters [with inches in brackets]. Figures and
illustrations are for reference only and are not
drawn to scale.
2. DESCRIPTION
The tool frame features two jaws, a handle, ratchet
adjustment wheel, and an emergency ratchet release.
The die set consists of an indenter (upper die) and an
anvil (lower die). The tool frame holds a die assembly
with two crimping chambers. See Figure 1. Die
retaining pins and die retaining screws are used to
position and secure the dies in the tool frame.
The tool features a ratchet and an adjustment wheel
with a range of settings. The ratchet ensures that the
tool has completed the cycle and will not release until
the handles have been FULLY closed, unless the
emergency ratchet release is rotated to manually
release the ratchet. The adjustment wheel controls the
amount of handle pressure exerted on the dies during
the crimping procedure.
The dies bottom before the ratchet releases. This
feature ensures maximum tensile performance of
the crimp. DO NOT re-adjust the ratchet.
