SCOPE

Krimptite Flag Rings and Spades Terminals 14-16 AWG.

Testing

Mechanical

The tensile test, or pull test, is a means of evaluating the mechanical properties of the

crimped connections. The following charts show the specifications for various wire sizes.

The tensile strength is shown in pounds and indicates the minimum acceptable force to

break or separate the terminal from the conductor.

Wire Size (AWG)

*UL 486A

*UL - 486 A - Terminals (Copper conductors only)

The following is a partial list of the product part numbers and their specifications that

OPERATION

Open the tool by first closing the jaws sufficiently for the

ratchet mechanism to release.

Crimping Terminals

1. Slip the ring or spade of the flag terminal under the

locator tab and center the terminal barrel into the

conductor punch of the lower jaw. Make sure the open

side of the barrel is facing down, (See Figure 1).

2. Partially close the tool to hold the terminal in place

(See Figure 2).

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

closed.

3. Insert the properly stripped wire into the terminal barrel (See Figure 2 and 3).

4. Now close the handle completely and release. The jaws will open when the tool has

fully closed.

5. Remove the crimped terminal. Inspect for proper crimp.

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

64003-0800 (RHT-1300) was engineered for

durability, but like any fine piece of equipment it needs cleaning and lubrication for a

maximum service life of trouble-free crimping. A light oil, such as 30 weight

automotive oil used at the oil points shown in Figure 4, every 5,000 crimps or 3 months

will significantly enhance the tool life and ensure a stable calibration.

4. 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.

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 Fig.5).

How To Adjust Tool Preload (See Figure 5)

Over the life of the tool, it may be necessary to adjust tool handle preload force. Listed

below are the steps required to adjust the crimping force of the hand tool to obtain proper

crimp conditions:

1. Remove the screw and plastic cover

washer. Note the setting wheel

position.

2. Lift the setting wheel off the axle.

Turn the eccentric axle with a

screwdriver.

3. Turning the eccentric axle counter-

clockwise (CCW) will increase

handle force.

4. Replace the setting wheel to the

axle, aligning the nearest notch in

the setting wheel to the dowel pin.

5. Replace the plastic cover washer and screw.

6. Check the crimp specifications after tool handle preload force is adjusted.

Tool Calibration

A Certificate of Calibration (see last page) was supplied with the tool. To recalibrate this

Tool, Pin Gauge measurements should be taken in each conductor nest and compared to

this chart. The tool should be lubricated prior to recalibration to ensure consistent

measurements. Handle preload is factory set to 25-45 LBS. See How to Adjust Tool Preload

(see Figure 5) to recalibrate.
