DI ...... DANIE:LS MANUFACTURING M ND G T HA TOOL - W CORPORA 710N DATASHEET THIS HAND TOOL MUST NOT BE USED IN ANY POWERED SEE PAGE 3 FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING PRES AS DEFINED BY OSHA CFR 1910.211 (46) LIMITED WARRANTY, AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Construct a Calibration Fixture and position tool assembly as shown in Figure 1. Compress handles and gage by turning the drive screw clockwise. Note the compression force required for the pawl to release from the last tooth of the ratchet. To adjust ratchet, tool must be in open position. Using a 1 /2 inch wrench, loosen the screw cap about 1 /2 a turn. Next, turn the eccentric screw clockwise to increase the compression force (causing a tighter crimp) and counter clockwise to decrease the compression force. While holding eccentric screw in desired position, tighten screw cap about 1 /8 turn after snug. CAUTION: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN SCREW CAP - TOOL WILL JAM. Repeat this procedure until desired force of 405 lb. is achieved.

W CORPORATION DATASHEET DAILY MAINTENANCE A properly crimped terminal is controlled by the following maintenance and inspection procedures. A. Clean all dust, dirt, moisture and other foreign matter from the crimp jaws that could damage the crimp area of the dies. B. The pivot pin and retched pawl bearing surface should be lubricated to ensure a smooth operation. C. When storing the tool, close the handles until the ratchet pawl is about to be released from the last tooth of the ratchet. This will help prevent the dies from being damaged. PERIODIC INSPECTION PROCEDURE Visual inspections should be performed on the tool based on the amount of use, working conditions and operator skill and care. A. Clean tool die area with solvent or brush. B. Check crimp area of dies for damage. C. If tool jams or locks, check the ratchet for dirt and lubrication. CARE OF TOOL It is a good practice to keep indenter tips free of residual color band deposits and other debris. A small wire brush may be used for this purpose. We strongly recommend that you: 1. DO NOT immerse tools in cleaning solution. 2. DO NOT spray oil into tool to lubricate except as noted in Section B under Daily Manitenance. 3. DO NOT attempt to disassemble tool or make repairs. This is a precision hand crimping tool and should be handled as such. DMC offers complete refurbishing and recalibration services.
