Crimping Cable

1.  Press the locking flange and open the crimping 

head.

2.  Insert the properly assembled connector into the 

crimping head.

3.  Close the crimping head.
4.  Pull the trigger to make the crimp.
5.  Hold the trigger down until the crimping tool 

achieves pressure relief and the ram retracts.

6.  The crimping tool returns automatically.
7.  Position the crimping tool for next crimp. Repeat 

Steps 4 through 6 for the number of crimps as 

described in this manual.

8.  Open the crimping head and remove the connector.

Notes:  If it is necessary to retract the ram before a 

crimping cycle is completed, push the retract button. 

Pushing the retract button will result in the complete 

retraction of the ram.
After completing the last crimp with W-type dies on an 

aluminum connector, wipe off the excess oxide inhibitor.

An incomplete crimp can cause a fire.
•  Use proper die, connector, and cable combina-

tions. Improper combinations can result in an 

incomplete crimp.

•  The relief valve sounds and the ram automatically 

retracts to indicate a completed crimp. If you do 

not hear the sound of the relieve valve or the ram 

does not automatically retract, the crimp is not 

complete.

Failure to observe these warnings could result in 

severe injury or death.
