– Before using the tool, carefully read instructions in this manual.
– ELECTRIC RISK: do not use these tools on live cables.
These tools are provided with a ratchet controlled mechanism, to prevent the handles opening,
before the crimping operation is complete.
The tools are supplied wrapped in anti-corrosion paper and packed in cardboard carton.
2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
2.1) Strip the cable insulation, to expose a length of conductor as recommended in Table 1, taking
care not to damage or cut any of the strands.
2.2) Open the tool by fully closing the handles, until automatically released.
2.3) Insert and position the connector in the crimp aperture, as detailed in §3.1, §3.2 or §3.3. Close
the handles until the terminal is lightly held between the jaws.
2.4) Insert the stripped cable into the barrel of the connector.
2.5) Crimp the connector by fully closing the tool handles. The handles will automatically release
after completion of the crimp. Once the crimping operation has started the ratchet controlled
mechanism, prevents the jaws from re-opening, until the handles are fully closed.
2.6) Remove the crimped connector and visually check that the "Compression Code" impressed on
the insulation, corresponds to the correct choice of tool (see TABLE 1).
