Step 8:
Set the
Micro-Crimp Adjuster
to the setting recommended by
the hose and fitting manufacturer for the combination of hose and fitting
being crimped.
NOTE: The Metric Micro-Crimp Adjuster is a direct reading
micrometer. Add the setting on the micrometer to the closed
diameter of the die set to obtain the finished crimp diameter.
For example: With a 23mm die set and the Micro-Crimp Adjuster set at
3.0, the finished crimp diameter would be 26.0 mm (23mm + 3.0mm).
Note:
Each die set has a limited range of diameters for which a satisfactory
crimp can be obtained. Always consult your hose and fitting manufacturer
for the correct die set for the hose and fitting being crimped.
Step 9:
Recheck the fitting for the correct alignment in the die set and
depress the start/stop switch.
Depress and hold the Start/Stop switch, until the micrometer touched the
electronic red button as shown, “count one mississippi” the automatic
stop switch will shut the pump off, and the ram will return to the retracted
position. Allow the pusher to return to the retracted position as well.
Step 10:
Check the final crimp diameter with calipers to confirm that
it is within manufacturer’s specifications.
Note:
Always consult with your
hose and fitting manufacturer to obtain
the must current crimp specifications.
