OPERATION
CAUTION: Install only Molex terminals listed above with this tool. Do not crimp hardened objects as damage can
occur to the tool or die.
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.
See Figure 1.

the back of the hand tool to bring the
locator forward through the tooling.
See Figure 2.
