Periodic Pressure Relief Valve Check
Test the crimping tool periodically to ensure that the
pressure relief valve activates at the proper pressure.
Testing the Crimping Tool
1. Center a test slug between the nibs.
2. Close the latch and push the pin completely into
the latch.
Do not operate the crimping tool unless the latch is
completely closed and secured with the latch pin.
Failure to observe this precaution may result in injury
and property damage.
3. Pump the handle to advance the nibs. Continue
pumping until the pressure relief valve activates.
4. After achieving pressure relief, the ram will auto-
matically return to the start position and the nibs will
retract.
5. Evaluate the test slug as follows:
• If the test slug does not t into GO slot, the pres-
sure relief valve is set too high. Send the crimping
tool to an authorized Greenlee service center.
• If the test slug ts into the GO slot, the pressure
relief valve is set correctly.
• If the test slug ts into the NO GO slot, the pres-
sure relief valve is set too low. Send the crimping
tool to an authorized Greenlee service center.
