1. Position the splice into the proper color-coded nest.
2. Partially close the tool to hold the splice in place.
3. Insert the properly stripped wire into the splice. The wires end
4. Remove the crimped splice. Inspect for proper crimp location.
5. Rotate the butt splice terminal 180°, so that the opposite end of
6. Repeat steps 2 thru 4.
Note: Whenever crimping without the locator, make sure the seam of the terminal is oriented up or down in the tool if using
unbrazed product, as this will provide higher pull force values.
Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware
of, and responsible for, the following maintenance steps:
1. Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a clean
2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the

oil excessively. The 64001-4500 (RHT-5771) was
engineered for durability, but like any fine piece of
equipment, it needs cleaning and lubrication for a maximum
service life of trouble-free crimping. A light oil, such as 30
weight automotive oil used at the oil points shown in Figure 5, every 5,000 crimps or 3 months will significantly enhance the tool
life and ensure a stable calibration.
