3. Unblocking the tool
IMPORTANT: Apply working force on the tool
handles while unblocking. It will prevent hurting
yourself and possible damages to the tool.
Using small screwdriver or similar tool, push the ratchet
relief (A), located inside the moving handle, ( Fig. 7.) in
direction as shown to unblock the tool, and remove
obstruction before continuing with the work.
With this tool only microplugs of appropriate type
have to be used. Crimping microplugs of unsuitable
type may result with unsatisfactory characteristics of
crimped connections and eventually with damaging of
the tools and is to be strictly avoided.

4. Tool regulation procedure
After prolonged work period, tool crimping performance
can change slightly due to final self-adjustment of the
tools’ components. This handtool is equipped with
eccentric axle which allows periodical adjustment of
crimping force and tool recalibration to maintain correct
crimp performance.
1. Loosen and remove allen head screw (A) using a 2.5
mm allen wrench. (Fig.8.)
2. Using a screw driver turn eccentric axle (B) and
toothed adjustment wheel (C) into new position.

4. Maintenance and general remarks
Crimping handtool 298007x-01 is intended to be
used for crimping of SS-39200-0xx modular plugs.
Using this handtool for any other purpose, or for
crimping of any other objects, can result in
damaging the tool and the objects being crimped
and prevention of its normal further functioning, for
what manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
Handtool is equipped with full cycle ratchet
mechanism which with optimized leverage system
within the tools make working with these tools easy
and simple. In case of improper crimp, ratchet
release mechanism allows you to easily open the
handtool and remove obstruction before work is
continued. Check unblocking procedure (item 3.).
Tool itself also incorporates possibility of periodical
adjustment of the crimping force and tool
recalibration via eccentric axle to maintain correct
crimp performance. Check tool regulation
procedure (item 4.).
For removal of dust, moisture and other
contaminants usage of clean brush or soft, lint-free
cloth is recommended. Do not use agressive
agents (thinner, alcohol,...) or hard objects that
could damage the tool.
Make sure that during the work bearing surfaces,
shafts and pivot points are protected with thin coat
of quality machine or motor oil. Do not oil
excessively.
When the tool is not in use, store it in a closed
position – with handles closed. That will keep other
objects from becoming stuck between crimping dies
and damaging them. Keep the tool in a dry and
clean area.
Use only original spare parts.

Professional Crimping tools for SS-39200-
0xx shielded plugs
See www.bel-stewart.com to select the
proper tool to match your plug
please read this brochure carefully before
using the tool for the first time
1. Preparing the tool for work
With this tool only plugs of appropriate type should
be used.
IMPORTANT: Never use cable having outer
diameter larger then specified in table 1.
In order to place the dies-set in the toolframe, close the
handles just as enough as to make the slot on pusher
fully visible (do not close it fully) (Fig.1).
Fig.1.
Insert the dies-set 298007x-01 in the toolframe and
make sure that pulling bolt “A” matches the slot in the
pusher. After the dies-set is properly positioned in the
toolframe, fix it by means of socket head cap screw
“B“
Die Set Type Cable Outer Diameter Range

2980076-01
2980073-01
5.5 mm – 6.1 mm
6.1 mm – 6.6 mm
6.8 mm – 7,5 mm
Table 1.
2. Terminating procedure
Load the plug according to plug manufacturer
instructions.
IMPORTANT: Prior to crimping, close the shield
wings by hand. Width of shield wings shouldn’t
exceed 13 mm (Fig.2).
Fig.2.
Insert the plug assembly in the tool as shown (Fig.3).
Clicking sound of the plugs' locking tab is the end of
inserting process.

Slowly
close tool handles completely to perform full
cycle crimping. (Fig.4.)
In case the tool becomes blocked for any reason,
please follow unblocking procedure (item 3.) found on
the back of this brochure.
Fig.4.
After the full crimping cycle is done, open the tool fully
in order to remove crimped plug. Press release button
(A) (Fig.5.) at the back side of the tool and pull out the
plug assembly. The tool is ready for next crimping
cycle.
