INSTALLATION/REMOVAL OF CRIMP TOOLING
CAUTION
Do not operate the tool without the crimp head installed. Repeated operation in this manner will result in damage to the
cylinder.
CAUTION
Do not operate the tool without the dies. Damage to the crimp head can result.
CAUTION
Do not operate the tool with the TE label facing down. Operating the tool in this orientation could cause slow operation of the
tool.
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, be sure to exercise extreme caution when handling the crimp tool. Remove the power source (and
release hydraulic pressure, if applicable) before installing or removing crimp tooling.
NOTE
For additional information on the crimping heads, refer to the instructions packaged with the crimping heads.
4.1.
Installation/Removal of CERTI-CRIMP II Tool Adapters
The adapters (CERTI-CRIMP II tools only) have the same interface as the crimping heads. The installation and
removal procedures for the adapters are identical to the installation/removal procedures for the crimping heads.
4.2.
Installation/ Removal of Crimping Head
Installation
To install a crimp head assembly, first be sure the power source is removed from the tool. Second, loosen
the head retaining screw with a 2.5 mm hex wrench. Next, carefully engage the threads with the cylinder
assembly and tighten into place. Fully tighten the head, and then rotate in the loosening direction one half
of a revolution. Tighten the head retaining screw and check for proper installation. If the head is installed
properly, the head will not be able to rotate more than one full revolution. If the head can rotate more than
one full revolution after installation, do not use the tool until installation is correct.
NOTE
The most likely cause of an improperly retained head assembly is a missing or misadjusted head retaining screw. See
Figure 2.
CAUTION
Do not reconnect the power to the tool until a crimping die is installed.
