GENERAL INFORMATION
The Hand crimp tool M22520/2-01 consists of a basic hand tool, which should be used with a
positioner.
The contact is correctly crimped when the tool is free to open at the fully closed position, i.e.,
when the ratchet releases. The tool cannot be opened without completing the cycle.
TOOL PREPARATION
1. Check that the tool is in the open position. Remove the safety clip from the positioner
guide (do not discard).
2. Insert the Positioner into the positioner guide and turn it 90° in the direction shown on the
tool, until the bayonet pins lock.
3. Install the safety clip back into the positioner guide (optional).
4. Check Table 1 for the correct crimp tool setting of the wire size you wish to crimp.
5. Remove the safety clip from the selector knob (do not discard).
6.
7. Install the safety clip back into the selector knob.
CRIMPING PROCEDURE
1. Ensure that the wire to be crimped is within the specified range of sizes for the contact and the
crimp tool. Failure to use the specified wire size will result in poor quality crimps and possible tool
damage.
Table 1
2. Cut the end of the cable to be terminated so that there is a clean cut end (Figure A). Strip the cable
IS-01 Issue: 5 Date: 19.07.12 C/Note: 11782 Page 2 of 3
to the correct length (Figure B) using a PTFE Wire stripper, preferably with adjustable rotating cutter.
This should result in all the strands lying together neatly. If the lay of the strands is disturbed, it
may be re-imposed with a slight twist.

3. Position the crimp socket fully into the positioner, with the crimp barrel uppermost.
4. Load the terminated end of the cable into the crimp barrel of the socket. Ensure the wire is fully
inserted, with all strands in place (see Figure C).
5. Squeeze the handles of the crimp tool fully together, until ratchet releases. The handle will return to
the open position. Remove the crimped socket and wire. Check that there is no exposed or stray
wire, and that the insulation is fully within the end of the crimp socket.
Figure C
Note: The cross hole on the crimp barrel, although not an inspection hole (it is designed to assist
with plating processes) may give approximate guidance to the location of the conductor. After
crimping the contact, the indent may overlap this hole.
6. Crimp joints should be checked for:
a) Correct combination of cable, tool setting and crimp termination.
b) Correctness of form and location of crimp.
c) Freedom of fracture, rough edges and flash.
d) Adequate insertion of all conductor strands in the crimp barrel.
e) Absence of damage to the conductor or the insulation.
M80-XXX piece parts are assembled using the Assembly Tool Z80-280. See Instruction Sheet IS-25 for
details on assembly.
K36XX piece parts are assembled using the Assembly Tool ZK3610-00. See Instruction Sheet IS-22 for
details on assembly.
There is virtually no maintenance required for the M22520/2-01 tool. However, it is good practice to keep
the indenter tips free of residual colour band deposits and other debris. A small wire brush may be used
for this purpose.
We strongly recommend that you:
1. DO NOT immerse tools in any cleaning solution.
2. DO NOT spray oil into tool to lubricate.
3. DO NOT attempt to disassemble tool or make repairs.
This is a precision crimp tool and should be handled as such.
