Crimping procedure

Note:
Initially, the crimp height and crimp widths should be verified as specified. Verify the crimp height before
using the tool to crimp the desired contacts and wire sizes.
Select a wire size and insulation diameter from table 1. Strip the wire to the specified length taking care
not to bend or to damage the wire strands. Choose the according contact and identify the appropriate
crimp section according to the wire size marking on the crimping head.
Proceed as follows:
1. Hold the tool so that the crimping dies are facing you. Squeeze tool handles (3) together and allow
them to open fully.
2. Slide the contact up to the stop in the contact locator (see figure 6).
3. Hold the contact in position and squeeze the tool handles together until the ratchet engages
sufficiently to hold the contact in position. Make sure you do NOT deform the contact (see figure 7).
