RECEIVING AND INSPECTION
Each kit is thoroughly inspected during and after assembly. Prior to packaging and shipping a final series of
tests and inspections is made to ensure proper function of the tool. The following inspection should be
performed as a safeguard against potential problems generated in transit.
1. In a well-lighted area, carefully uncrate the kit and inspect each component as it is removed from the
crate.
2. Thoroughly inspect each component for evidence of damage that may have occurred in transit. If any
of the components are damaged, file a claim against the carrier and notify TE Connectivity
immediately.
3. Keep this manual and all drawings and product samples with the kit for the benefit of operation and
maintenance personnel.
Inspect the crimping tool at regularly scheduled intervals (every 40 hours of use or less). Base your inspection
schedule on care, degree of operator skill, the type and size of the product to be crimped, and environmental
conditions.
