INSPECTION
The contact’s mating dimensions can be checked after crimping by gauge plates.
0.1mm thickness gauge should go through mating area.
0.2mm thickness gauge should not go through mating area.
TOOL CARE
We strongly recommend that you:
1. DO NOT open the handle when the handle is tightened halfway.
2. DO NOT crimp any contact and cable other than those recommended.
3. DO NOT drop the crimp tool or damage it in any way.
4. DO NOT use any other power for crimping except the hand.
5. DO NOT take the crimp tool apart.
TOOL MAINTENANCE
1. Keep the tool clean and free from dirt and foreign matter. Use a small brush to clean the
crimped jaws before and after use.
2. At regular intervals, check the crimp tool jaws for wear or damage, and inspect sample
crimps for form and function
3. Spray lubricating oil on moving areas if the crimp tool movement feels unnatural.
4. Store the crimp tool in a closed position, covered and in a dry location.
