5. CRIMP HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The tool frame assembly features a ratchet
mechanism and adjustment wheel with a range
of settings. The ratchet mechanism ensures that
the tool has completed the cycle. The adjust-
ment wheel controls the amount of handle pres-
sure exerted on the tool jaws and crimping dies
during the crimping procedure. Although the
ratchet is preset prior to shipment, it is important
that you verify the crimp height. Also, general
use and subsequent wear may cause the tool to go out of adjustment. It is recommended that the crimp height be inspected — and
adjusted, if necessary — on a regular basis by quality control personnel.
1. Crimp a contact onto a properly–prepared wire of the correct size.
2. If the crimp height is greater than recommended, remove the ratchet wheel adjustment screw and rotate the
3. If the crimp height is less than recommended, remove the ratchet wheel adjustment screw and rotate the adjustment
