1. Retract the Ram fully by opening the pump handle and rotating it fully
clockwise. Close the pump handle while maintaining its rotated
position to make contact with the release pin on the tool body (2.1).
2. Select the appropriate size dies for the connector being used.
3. Insert the dies into the crimping head and ram by sliding the dies in
while pressing the die release pins (Figure 1).
4. Place connector between the dies. Operate pump handle and advance the Ram (2.1) so the connector is held lightly
between the dies. Do not deform the connector.
5. Insert the conductor into the connector.
6. Continue operating pump handle until the compression is complete. The tool has a built in bypass cartridge which
automatically activates when full pressure is reached. There will be a noticeable decrease in handle force at full pressure
indicating a complete compression.
7. Retract the Ram according to step 1.
8. Remove the compressed connector from the tool.
