4.2. Measuring Die Opening
5. PARTS REPLACEMENT
The die assembly will perform correctly as long as:
(1) the product specified is correct for the application,
(2) the specific die assembly is used, (3) the die
assembly has been measured to ensure that the
openings are correct, and (4) the tool has been
adjusted correctly.
Figure 5 provides information on die opening sizes.
4.3. Ratchet Adjustment (Figure 6)
The ratchet mechanism features an adjustment wheel
with eight settings. The adjustment wheel controls the
amount of handle pressure exerted on the tool jaws
and crimping dies during crimping. If the crimp is not
acceptable, adjust the ratchet as follows:
1. Sufficiently loosen the screw at the ratchet
adjustment wheel so that the wheel can be rotated
above the post that engages the teeth in the wheel.
2. If the crimp is too loose, turn the wheel to a
higher notch (for example, if the wheel is set at
notch no. 5, move the wheel to notch no. 6). If the
crimp is too tight, move the wheel to a lower notch
Customer--replaceable parts are shown in Figure 1.
