4.2. Description of the operation
In order to release the pump lever (Pos.-No. 1) the hook (Pos.-No. 2) must be disengaged
by pushing the lever towards the body of the pump so that the hook (Pos.-No. 2) can be
pushed aside and thus releasing the pump lever.
By actuating the pump lever with the foot the crimping cycle will be initiated. After
continuously actuating the pump lever the pump will switch off automatically when
reaching the max. operating pressure at 700 bar. Reaching this point will be indicated by
an audible „click“. The pump has a double piston which allows a fast approach of the
dies/blades to the cable in a low pressure mode. When the compression starts the pump
will automatically switch over to the high pressure mode.
After reaching the max. operating pressure the piston can be returned into the starting
position by actuating the release lever (Pos.-No.3).
If a pressure pick up is available the pressure increase can be observed.
