IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY 

ALERT 

SYMBOL

This symbol is used to call your attention to hazards 

or unsafe practices which could result in an injury or 

property damage. The signal word, defined below, 

indicates the severity of the hazard. The message 

after the signal word provides information for pre-

venting or avoiding the hazard.

Immediate hazards which, if not avoided, WILL result 

in severe injury or death.

Hazards which, if not avoided, COULD result in 

severe injury or death.

Hazards or unsafe practices which, if not avoided, 

MAY result in injury or property damage.

Read and understand all of the 

instructions and safety information 

in this manual before operating or 

 servicing this tool.
Failure to observe this warning could 

result in severe injury or death.

Electric shock hazard:
This tool is not insulated. When using 

this unit on or near energized electri-

cal lines, use proper personal protec-

tive equipment.
Failure to observe this warning could 

result in severe injury or death.

Wear eye protection when operating 

or servicing this tool. 
Failure to wear eye protection could 

result in serious eye injury from flying 

debris or hydraulic oil. 

Skin injection hazard:
Do not use hands to check for oil 

leaks. Oil under pressure easily punc-

tures skin. If injured, seek medical 

attention immediately to remove oil.
Failure to observe this warning could 

result in serious injury, gangrene, or 

death.

Do not use solvents or flammable 

liquids to clean the tool body.

ignite and cause serious injury or 

property damage.

An incomplete crimp can cause a fire.
•  Use proper die, connector, and cable combinations. 

Improper combinations can result in an incomplete 

crimp.

•  The relief valve sounds and the ram automatically 

retracts to indicate a completed crimp. If you do not 

hear the sound of the relieve valve or the ram does 

not automatically retract, the crimp is not complete.

Failure to observe these warnings could result in 

severe injury or death.

Pinch points:
•  Remove battery before changing 

dies, adapters, or jaws

•  Keep hands away from the crimp-

ing tool head when crimping.

Failure to observe these warnings 

could result in severe injury or death.
