620 Class 2 Crimps, the following overall wire insulation diameter ranges are recommended:
Profile 10: 4.20-4.50mm (0.165-0.177 In) Profile 12: 3.50-4.15mm (0.138-0.163 In)
OPERATION
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.
Crimping Terminals
1. Place the terminal into the correct die profile (10-12) until the
terminal is stopped by the locator.
2. Partially close the tool until the terminal is held in place.
3. Place a pre-stripped wire into the terminal, and align the wire
with the conductor and insulation grips visually. See Figure 1.
4. Close the tool until the ratchet releases.
5. Carefully remove the crimped terminal.
Note: The tamper-proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.
Note
This tool is equipped with a flip top feature and a movable locator to allow
easier access for use with larger terminals. See Figures 2 and 3.
1. To use the flip top feature, pull the locking pin away from the face of
the tool.
2. Lift the upper part of the crimp head, and swing it open.
