INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF
5111A FERRULE CRIMPER
DESCRIPTION:
The 5111A Ferrule crimper is hand operated. It is used in a xed location for small production
runs, or mounted on a carrier as a mobile hose repair unit.
The 5111A crimper is designed for the production or repair of hoses using light or medium weight
ferrules and stems for air or water hose.
INSTALLATION:
The 5111A ferrule crimper is shipped fully assembled, (except for installing handle), less crimping
dies. It should be secured to a bench or carrier.
MAINTENANCE:
The 5111A 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. Install proper stem and ferrule onto hose.
2. Place assembly into opening between the crimping dies and pull handle No. 8 until crimping
dies contact ferrule. A steady pull on the handle will bring the dies through center completing
the crimping operation.

DIE CHANGE:
1. 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 and 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
proper rib orientation.
