The 1765A crimper is an air operated, high speed ferrule crimping machine. It is used in a
xed location where continuous service is necessary for high production runs.
The 1765A crimper is designed for the production or repair of hose assemblies using light or
medium weight ferrules for air and or water hose.
INSTALLATION:
The 1765A ferrule crimper is shipped fully assembled, less crimping dies. It should be secured
to a bench, with the foot pedal in a convenient location.
• The normal operating air pressure is 110 PSI
• Air consumption per cycle is .209 cu. ft. at 80 PSI
MAINTENANCE:
The 1765A ferrule crimper is greased at time of assembly. Periodic inspection, cleaning and
greasing of all moving parts is necessary (use a WD40 type spray).
OPERATION:
1. Stop No. 22, movable on Stud No. 21 must be adjusted to locate the crimp on the ferrule.
2. Insert the pre-assembled hose that has the proper stem and ferrule, through the opening
between the dies until the tting butts against the stop.
3. Holding the assembly steadily against the stop, depress the Foot Pedal No. 30, once. A fast,
easy crimp will occur, after a slight pause, as the dies pass through center. Do not maintain
pressure on the pedal after crimp has occured.

DIE CHANGE:
1. Turn air supply off, and bleed air cylinder by depressing Foot Pedal No. 30 several times.
2. Move stop No. 22 down by releasing thumb screw No. 23.
3. Remove wing nuts No. 6 and lock washers No. 7. Die holder plate No. 3 can now be removed
exposing the crimping dies as well as the die holders No.10, links No. 11 and their pins
No.’s 12 & 13.
2. Crimping dies will slide in and out of the mating dovetails freely.
3. All crimping dies are stamped with their part number. When the die holder plate is removed,
this number is visible on each die. When changing dies, be sure to install each die with the
numbered side facing the die holder plate. This is very important when using ribbed dies for
