855 crimper
860 crimper
How To:
Before operating the 855, 855A or 860 Crimper, close the machine and adjust the
screw opposite the end where the handle attaches until the screw just touches the
end stop. Never turn the screw tighter than this. The screw should be looser if
the hose barb fits very tightly and the ferrule ID is close to the hose OD.
A properly placed ferrule will t snugly on to the hose before crimping and will be difcult
to rotate by hand.
1) Place ferrule on the hose.
2) Lubricate the inside of the hose with Dixon
Coupling Lubricant before inserting tting to
make the tting slide in more easily.
3) Insert hose barb.
4) Open hose crimper by raising handle.
5) Place hose into hose crimper, centering the
ferrule on the proper die.
6) Press down on handle until it hits the end
stop. Lift up and rotate hose 90°. Repeat.
