FEATURES This tool is designed to cover complete wire range (18-26AWG stranded wire) without adjustment, and has a positive action cycle controlled ratchet mechanism. The intended use covers field maintenance, small production and model shop or laboratory crimping requirements. 6. Tool Calibration & Crimp Tensile Assurance Although the only valid method of determining that the tool is correctly adjusted and performing properly is to: 1/ Perform pull-test on crimped termination. (See min tensile value chart). 2/ Take dimensional measurements from cavity of tool (see calibrating instructions). Calibrating Instructions 1/ Crimp a piece of 0.10” diameter soft solder in either cavity and check height and width dimensions (see chart). 2/ Without contact in tool measure ratchet release pressure at a point 1.75” from handle end; the pressure required is 55-65lbs.
