shall not be open

and no wire allowed out

of the crimping area

Not s:

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. Variations in tools, terminals, wire stranding, and insulation types

may affect crimp height.

3. This tool is intended for AWG conductors with UL1007 insulation. It may not give a good insulation crimp

support for other insulation styles.

4. Molex does not repair hand tools (see Warranty on page 3). The replacement parts listed are the only parts

available for repair. If the handles or 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. Refer to Molex Quality Crimping

Handbook 63 00-0029 for additional information on crimping and crimp testing.

6. Molex does not certify crimp hand tools.

OPERATION

Open the tool by squeezing the handles together, at the end of the closing stroke, the

ratchet mechanism will release the handles, and the hand tool will spring open.

Pr paring T rminals for Crimping

The terminals must be cut from the reel as shown. See Figure 2. The carrier strip hole is used to assist in loading

the terminal in position over the crimp anvils. The carrier strip will help maintain terminal position during crimping

and can be broken off after the crimp is complete.

Crimping T rminals

1. Load the terminal with carrier strip into the proper crimp profile.

Make sure the carrier strip pilot hole fits over the positioning pin.

2. Push the wire stop downward (into the tool frame).

3. Place the properly stripped wire into the open terminal barrel.

Push the wire into the tool until the end of the wire contacts the

wire stop, making sure that all wire strands are inside of the

conductor barrel. See Figures 3 and 4.

4. While holding the wire with one hand, slowly squeeze the tool

handles together to close the tool jaws until the ratchet

mechanism releases. At this point the handles can be released

and will spring open.

5. Remove the crimped terminal and inspect for acceptable crimp

attributes.

Not : The tamper proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.

Maint nanc

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 hand tool, particularly from crimping area.

Oil transferred from the crimping area onto certain terminations

may affect the electrical characteristics of an application.

5. When tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in the crimping dies,

and store the tool in a clean, dry area.

Pull T st Proc dur

Pull testing is to be done with no influence from the insulation crimp.

Pull testing can be done by the following steps:

1. Open the tool by squeezing the handles together, at the end of the closing stroke, the ratchet mechanism will

release the handles, and the hand tool will spring open.

2. Load the terminal with the carrier strip into the proper profile make sure the carrier strip pilot hole fits over the

positioning pin on the locator.

3. Do Not close the wire stop.

4. Position a wire form the back side of the Hand Tool and into the conductor crimp area only. See Figure 5.

5. Carefully crimp the terminal. Open the tool and remove the crimped terminal.

6. Flatten the crimped (empty) insulation grips. This area will be inserted and held in the pull tester grip.

7. Install crimped terminal into the pull tester as shown to perform the pull test. Be careful not to grip wire brush.

See Figure 6.

Miscrimps or Jams

Should this tool ever become stuck or jammed in a partially closed position, Do Not force the handles open or

closed. The tool will open easily by lifting the ratchet release lever. See Figure 6.

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. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any clamping,

fixturing, or use of handle extensions voids this warranty.

CAUTION: Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.

CAUTIONS:

1. Manually powered hand tools are intended for low volume or field repair. This tool is NOT intended for

production use. Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.

2. Insulated rubber handles are not protection against electrical shock.

3. Wear eye protection at all times.

4. Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool.

CAUTION: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling.

Applications for th Modular Crimp H ad

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

below 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.
