Modular Crimp Head for HCS-125 Pin and Socket Crimp Terminal
WARNING: NEVER operate, service, install, or adjust this Modular Crimp Head without proper instruction
and without first reading and understanding the instructions in the proper Manual or Specification Sheet.
See Chart above for the correct Manual or Specification Sheet.
WARNING: NEVER install tooling or service this tool while it is into any power source. Disconnect the
power by unplugging or turn off the Actuator from its power source.
CAUTION: Keep fingers away from the crimping area when operating this tool. It may cause severe injury.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses when operating or serving this tool.
OPERATION
The Modular Crimp Head can be installed into various applications. Refer to the chart on the previous page
and see Figures 1 through 3.
Crimping Terminals
1. Place the terminal into the correct die profile (A or B) until the terminal stopped by the locator.
2. Place a pre-striped wire into the terminal and align the wire with the conductor and insulation grips
visually. See Figure 4 and 5.
3. Cycle the tool.

Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of, and responsible for, the following
maintenance steps:
1. 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 the tool, particularly from crimping area. Oil transferred from the crimping area onto
certain terminations may affect the electrical characteristics of an application.
5. Store the tool in a clean and dry location when not in use.
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.
Notes:
1. This tool should only be used for the terminals and wire gauges specified on this sheet.
2. This tool is not adjustable for crimp height; however crimp force is adjustable (See instructions above).
Variations in tools, terminals, wire stranding and insulation types may affect crimp height.
3. This tool is intended for standard conductor sizes. It may not give a good insulation crimp support for all
insulation sizes.
4. Molex does not repair hand tools. (see warranty above) The replacement parts listed are the only parts
available for repair. If the crimp tooling is damaged or worn, a new tool must be purchased.
5. Pull force should be used as the final criteria for an acceptable crimp. Pull force is measured with no
influence from the insulation crimp. The insulation should be stripped long (1/2 in.) so the insulation grips
on the terminal do not grip the wire insulation or the conductor. Refer to Molex Quality Crimping
Handbook 63800-0029 for additional information on crimping and crimp testing.
6. Molex does not certify crimp tools.
CAUTION: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling.
