How to Adjust Tool Preload
It may be necessary over the life of the tool 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 2mm locking screw from the numbered adjusting wheel using a screw driver. See Figure 3.
2.
Using the same screw driver turn the adjustment wheel to the next highest number.
Note: The uneven numbers are in clockwise (CW) direction and the even numbers are counter clockwise
(CCW).
3.
Example: If the preload is set at number 5, then to increase the preload, turn the adjustment wheel until the 6
th
position is located over the 2mm locking screw tapped hole. If it is necessary to move to the 7
th
position, then
the adjustment wheel should be turned counter clockwise (CCW) until the 7
th
position is over the 2mm locking
screw tapped hole.
4.
Replace the 2mm locking screw, aligning the nearest notch in the setting wheel to locking screw.
5.
Check the crimp specifications and conduct a pull test after tool handle preload force is adjusted. Repeat
these steps until the desired result is obtained.
