CRIMPING PROCEDURE
To begin, use your hose and ttings manufacturer’s crimp specications to
select the correct hose, tting, die and nal crimp diameter for your project
Note: Prior to crimping the hose it is important to verify the insertion length.
This number should be provided by your hose and tting manufacture, or in
your hose and ttings manufacturer’s specications manual.
Set the dial micrometer to the setting recommended by your hose and tting
manufacturer for the combination of hose and tting being crimped,
then lock the micrometer.
Micrometer Setting Example:
Each 100 on the Micrometer represents 1 mm above the closed diameter of
the die set. For example, with a 50mm die installed and the Micrometer set at
250, the nished crimp diameter would be 52.5 mm.
(50mm + 2.5mm) = 52.5 mm
Insert the hose assembly from either direction into the crimper, taking care not
to disturb the die set. Hold the assembly in place until the crimp is complete.
Note: Consult your hose and tting manufacturer’s specications for the
correct insertion depth for the hose and tting being crimped.
• Activate the crimp cycle by pressing and holding the green close
button or the foot switch, until the crimper shuts o indicating the
crimp is complete.
• After the dies retracted remove the hose assembly.
Check the crimp diameter of the nished assembly with calipers or
micrometers, to be certain that it is within the specications as outlined
in your hose and ttings manufacturer’s crimp specications.
Making Small Adjustments:
• If necessary, the crimp size can be adjusted by making small adjustments on
the unit’s micrometer.
Measure the nished crimp diameter, add or subtract the dierence to reach
your target diameter, then set that number on the dial micrometer and make a
crimp. Check the nal crimp diameter with calipers to conrm that it is within
your hose and tting manufacturer’s specications.
Notes:
• If the crimp is under-crimped, turn the dial counter-clockwise.
• If the crimp is over-crimped, turn the dial clock-wise.
