6PC PROFESSIONAL DEUTSCH RATCHETING CRIMPING TOOL SET
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read the manual and familiarize yourself with matching the correct jaw sets with
the various types of terminals. This is important for proper operation and a secure crimp of the terminal. The jaws are a 2 piece matched set and must be kept together to prevent mismatching of the jaw sets and causing damage to the jaws.
2. This crimping tool is provided with a ratcheting locking system with an automatic
and manual release. The handles lock as they are squeezed together to prevent reversing, until the handles are together and the crimp is complete. The lock will then automatically release, allowing the jaws to fully open. The manual release lever is located on the inside of the handle to release the lock if the lock does not release automatically, or if releasing the lock is necessary prior to crimping the terminal. (See TROUBLESHOOTING to the right)
3. Choose the correct jaw set for the type of terminal to be crimped.
(See chart below)
4. To change the jaw set, squeeze the handles together until the automatic release
opens the jaws. Remove the jaws by pulling straight out of the end of the crimping tool. The jaws are easily removed and installed, since they are retained by spring loaded steel balls, which seat into a detent on the jaws. Install the correct jaws by pushing the jaws into the end of the crimping tool until the jaws lock securely into place. The jaws can also be switched to the opposite side of the crimping tool for desired right or left hand operation.
5. To begin operation, strip electrical wire to the correct length, slide terminal onto
wire, insert terminal into the correct size opening of the jaw, and squeeze handles together until the terminal is crimped and the jaws release automatically. Inspect the crimped terminal to assure that the crimp pressure is adjusted properly. (See Adjustment and TROUBLESHOOTING to the right if jaws do not release automatically, or if the terminal is not crimped properly)
6. Adjustment: The adjuster is located on the side of the handle. (See page 2)
Remove screw, turn adjuster clockwise to decrease crimp pressure and to automatically release jaws sooner. Install screw after adjustment is made. Turn adjuster counterclockwise to increase crimp pressure. If the jaws do not release automatically with the handles squeezed together, the pressure should be decreased until the automatic release opens the jaws. (See photo to the right)
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. During operation of crimping the terminal, if the jaws do not release automatically, squeeze the handles completely together and release hand pressure from handles. If the jaws still do not release automatically, squeeze the handles to release tension on the release lever, push the release lever forward, and release hand pressure from handles until the jaws release to the open position. (Arrow is pointing to release lever in photo below)

2. Please check the following if the crimping tool does not crimp the terminal properly, or if the jaws do not release automatically:
a) Incorrect jaw set installed for the terminals being crimped. b) Mismatched jaw set installed, or jaws are not locked into place. c) Undersize or oversize terminals. d) Crimping tool may need adjusted. (See Adjustment in the Operating Instructions)
