Tool Qualification Notes:
1. Pull Force should be measured with no
influence from the insulation crimp.
2. The above specifications are guidelines
to an optimum crimp.

Insulation Crimp Note
:
Due to the terminal’s insulation grip design
and/or insulation diameter range, this tool
uses “overlap” form geometry in the
insulation punch. This produces an overlap
insulation crimp (A620 – compliant). While
the insulation punch profile may appear
“lopsided”, this is a normal condition for this
tool. See figure to the right. (Some tools with
multiple crimp pockets may not have the “overlap”
profile on all pockets).
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Install only Molex terminals listed
above with this tool. Do not crimp hardened
objects as damage can occur to the tool or die.
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. See Figure 1.
Crimping Terminals
1.
Select the desired terminal listed in the
preceding charts.
2.
Make sure the center of the locator is in the down position. With the locator attached, push the locator button
on the back of the hand tool to bring the locator forward through the tooling. See Figure 2.
