Close the pressure release valve and operate the pump handle
until the audible bypass is heard, then pump three additional
times. Leave the crimping clamp closed until the cut conductors
are removed.
Operate the PRESS/RELEASE control to the PRESS position
and hold until the pressure bypass is heard to operate. This signi-
fies a completed crimp. Leave crimping clamp closed until the cut
conductors are removed.
Note:
To avoid damaging the retainer spring, do
not attempt to remove all the conductors at
once.
Note:
An adjustment screw on crimping clamp
can be set to limit return on crimping bar.
This screw can be adjusted to reduce the
number of strokes required for crimping a
two-wire splice when using the hand
pump, but must be completely backed off
for crimping 3-wire bridge splices..
5.3.1.3 Remove one fourth to one third of the cut con-
ductors at a time by lifting them straight up
from the retainer spring.
