Tool Calibration 

 

A Certificate of Calibration (See Last Page) was supplied with the tool.  To recalibrate this 
Tool, a soft metal slug or solder should be crimped in the conductor nest and the “

X

” 

Dimension measured 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 7) to recalibrate.
