DX Engineering DXE-UT-CRMP2-PWR Die Set Instructions

Die Set Installation Information

for use with

DXE-UT-KIT-CRMP2

This short instruction sheet shows how the DX Engineering Crip Dies are installed
in the DX Engineering Ultra-Grip-2 Crimp Tools. Using the Allen wrench, remove
the two Die Hex Socket Head Screws from the crimper.

DXE-UT-KIT-CRMP2

Insert the Die Set as shown in the picture below. Slightly close the Crimp Tool to help hold the Die Set in place. Re­install the two Die Hex Socket Head Screws. Align the holes and using the supplied 2.5 mm Allen Wrench, insert
the Allen head screws to loosely hold the die set in place as shown below. Squeeze the jaws closed, then tighten the
two Allen head screws to hold the die set firmly in place. Squeeze the crimper completely and it should then
automatically release and you are ready to use the Crimp Tool. There is an adjustment on the Crimp Tool that will
vary the amount of compression when the tool is completely squeezed and a Die Set is installed. The factory setting
should be fine for all of the DX Engineering Die Sets available. If you need to adjust it, loosen the Phillips Head
Screw and move the adjuster to loosen or tighten the compression. Additionally, there is a quick release lever that
will allow you to open the crimp tool if it becomes jammed while compressing a crimp. Pushing this lever toward
the jaws will release the ratchet allowing the tool to open.

When installing the Powerpole® Die Set, use the supplied longer screw and Nyloc Nut and washer to allow for the
addition of the Powerpole® crimp connector holder.

More detailed information on using the crimp tools can be found on www.DXEngineering.com in the detailed
manual for the DXE-UT-CRMP2.
