It is not an image of a terminal listed in the scope. Insulation Crimp Note: Due to the terminal's insulation grip design and/or insulation diameter range, this tool uses "overlap" form geometry in the insulation punch. This produces an overlap insulation crimp (A620 - compliant). While the insulation punch profile may appear "lopsided", this is a normal condition for this tool. See figure to the right. (Some tools with multiple crimp pockets may not have the "overlap" profile on all pockets).

Pull Force should be measured with no influence from the insulation crimp. 2. The above specifications are guidelines to an optimum crimp. Note: A crimp height chart is provided with this document as Reference Only. Due to the wide range of wires, strands, insulation diameters, and durometers available, actual crimp height measurements may very slightly. An occasional, destructive, pull force test should be performed to check hand tool crimp. Pull Force value Must exceed the Minimum pull force specifications listed. LOCATOR IN DOWN POSTION HANDLE WILL SPRING OPEN OPERATION CAUTION: Crimp only the Molex terminals listed in the scope for this tool. Do not crimp hardened objects as damage can occur to the tool frame and/or crimp dies. SQUEEZE HANDLES TOGETHER Figure 2 PUSH ON THE LOCATOR BUTTON Figure 1 Open the tool by squeezing the handles together. At the end of the closing stroke, the ratchet mechanism will release the handles and the hand tool will spring open. See Figure 1. Crimping Terminals 1. Select the desired terminal listed in the preceding charts. 2. Make sure the center of the locator is in the down position. With the locator attached, push the locator button on the back of the hand tool to bring the locator forward through the tooling. See Figure 2. 3. While holding the locator button in, load the terminal into the proper nest opening in the locator based on the wire gauge or terminal type markings on the hand tooling. See Figure 3.

Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal locator by pulling on the wire. 9. Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper crimp location. 10. On some large O.D. wires, it may not be possible to insert the wire with the tool partially closed. Those wires should be inserted with the hand tool in the open position. Insert the wire above the terminal in the punch and against the wire stop then close the tool. See Figure 6.

Right or Left Hand Operation This hand tool has an added feature that can be converted from a right handed application to a left handed application. It is necessary to reverse the tooling if using the left handed application along with the locator. Follow the steps below: Figure 7B LOWER TABS JAWS OPEN TOOLING PULL OPEN TOOLING MATCH UP MARKS M3 BHCS Figure 9 Figure 8 FRONT BACK PUSH ON HANDLE 1. The locator must be removed before reversing the tooling. 2. Remove the M3 BHCS which is holding the upper tooling. 3. Flip the upper tooling to the opposite side and replace the M3 BHCS. Make sure the small markings on the front and back of the hand tool frame, match up and are on the outside of the hand tool frame. See Figure 8 and 9. 4. Do the same thing with the lower tooling and tighten the M3 screws. Be sure the small markings line up. 5. Reinstall the locator by following the Instructions in the locator replacement section.

Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants with a clean brush, or soft, lint free cloth. 2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool. 3. Make certain all pins; pivot points and bearing surfaces are protected with a thin coat of high quality machine oil. Do not oil excessively. The tool was engineered for durability but like any other equipment it needs cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of trouble free crimping. Light oil (such as 30 weight automotive oil) used at the oil points, every 5,000 crimps or 3 months, will significantly enhance the tool life. 4. Wipe excess oil from hand tool, particularly from crimping area. Oil transferred from the crimping area onto certain terminations may affect the electrical characteristics of an application. 5. When tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in the crimping dies, and store the tool in a clean, dry area. LUBRICATION POINTS (BOTH SIDES) LIGHT OIL (EVERY 3 MONTHS OR 5,000 CRIMPS) Figure 10 RATCHET RELEASE LEVER Miscrimps or Jams Should this tool ever become stuck or jammed in a partially closed position, Do Not force the handles open or closed. The tool will open easily by pressing up on the ratchet release lever in the movable handle. See Figure 11. How to Adjust Tool Preload (See Figure 12) This hand tool is factory preset to 25-45 LBS. preload. It may be necessary over the life of the tool to adjust tool handle preload force. Listed below are the steps required to adjust the crimping force of the hand tool to obtain proper crimp conditions: RATCHET RELEASE LEVER Figure 11 SQUEEZE THE LINK IN THE HANDLE HOLD THE HAND TOOL IN POSITION 1. Hold the hand tool in the palm of your hand as shown in Figure 10. Using the index finger squeeze the link Figure 12 towards the top of the hand tool frame. This will release the preload SETTING WHEEL adjustment wheel. 2. Rotate the setting wheel counterclockwise (CCW) to increase handle force. The numbers will display higher. To decrease handle force rotate the setting wheel clockwise (CW).

Release the link to lock the setting wheel in place. 4. Check the crimp specifications or conduct a pull test after tool handle preload force is adjusted. Warranty This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool is made of the best quality materials. All vital components are long life tested. All tools are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for a period of 30 days. Should such a defect occur, we will repair or exchange the tool free of charge. This repair or exchange will not be applicable to altered, misused, or damaged tools. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any clamping, fixturing, or use of handle extensions voids this warranty. CAUTION: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling. CAUTIONS: 1. Manually powered hand tools are intended for low volume or field repair. This tool is NOT intended for production use. Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided. 2. Insulated rubber handles are not protection against electrical shock. 3. Wear eye protection at all times. 4. Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool. Certification Molex does not certify or re-certify hand tools but rather supplies the following guidelines for customers to re-certify hand tools. This tool is qualified to pull force only. To re-certify, crimp a terminal to a wire, which has been stripped 12.7mm (1/2") long, so there is no crimping of the insulation. Pull the terminal and wire at a rate no faster than 25mm (1.00") per minute. See the Molex web site for the Quality Crimp Handbook for more information on pull testing. If the tool does not meet minimum pull force values, handle preload should be increased and the pull test rerun, (See How to Adjust Preload). When the hand tool is no longer capable of achieving minimum pull force, it should be taken out of service and replaced.
