crimp a loose piece contact using the setting which
corresponds to the insulation diameter: (1) –– small; (2)
and (3) –– medium; or (4) –– large. If the crimped
insulation barrel is too tight or loose, change the setting
by pulling out and rotating the adjustment knob to the
desired setting.
4. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE
It is recommended that a maintenance and inspection
program be performed periodically to ensure dependable
and uniform terminations. Frequency of inspection
depends on:
The hand tool is inspected before being shipped;
however, it is recommended that the tool be inspected
immediately upon its arrival at your facility to ensure that
the tool has not been damaged during shipment.
4.1. Daily Maintenance
4.2. Lubrication
Lubricate all pins, pivot points, and bearing surfaces with
SAE 20 oil as follows:
Wipe excess oil from tool, particularly from crimping
area. Oil transferred from the crimping area onto certain
terminations may affect the electrical characteristics of
an application.
4.3. Periodic Inspection
CERTI-CRIMP II Straight Action Hand Tools
1. Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants
with a clean brush, or a soft, lint–free cloth. Do NOT
use objects that could damage the tool.
2. Make certain that the retaining pins are in place
and that they are secured with retaining rings. See
Figure 4.
3. All pins, pivot points, and bearing surfaces should
be protected with a thin coat of any good SAE 20 oil.
Do not oil excessively.
4. When the tool is not in use, keep handles closed to
prevent objects from becoming lodged in the crimping
jaws. Store the tool in a clean, dry area.
Tools used in daily production – lubricate daily
Tools used daily (occasional) – lubricate weekly
Tools used weekly – lubricate monthly
1. Hand tool may be immersed (handles partially
closed) in a reliable commercial degreasing
compound (suitable for plastics) to remove
accumulated dirt, grease and foreign matter.
2. Close tool handles until ratchet releases and then
allow them to open freely. If they do not open quickly

4.4. Crimp Height Inspection
This inspection requires the use of micrometer with a
modified anvil as shown in Figure 3.
A recommended Crimp Height Comparator is
RS–1019–5LP, which can be purchased from:
Crimp Height Comparator 3–576692–6 is recommended
in Great Britain; Crimp Height Comparator 675836–0
and –1 are recommended in Germany.
Proceed as follows:
For additional information concerning the use of the
crimp height comparator, refer to Instruction Sheet
408–7424.

and fully, the spring is defective and must be
replaced. See the Section 5.
3. Inspect head assembly for worn, cracked, or
broken jaws. If damage is evident, return it for
evaluation and repair.
1. Select a contact and a wire (maximum size) for
each crimp section listed in the appropriate table at
http://tooling.tycoelectronics.com.
2. Refer to the Section 3, and crimp the contact(s).
3. Using a crimp height comparator, measure wire
barrel crimp height as shown in Figure 3. If the crimp
height conforms to that marked on the tool, the tool is
considered dimensionally correct. If not, return the
tool to Tyco Electronics for evaluation and repair
(refer to Section 5).
