SAVETHESE INSTRUCTIONS
Additional copies of this manual are available
upon request at no charge.
Before using this load cell, read and understand
the manual supplied with your crimper.
Operation
1. Disconnect crimper from the hydraulic power source.
2. Remove crimping dies from the crimper.
3. Install the test dies.
4. Connect crimper to a hydraulic power source.
5. Position the load cell so that the pressure pad is
centered between the test dies.
6. Activate the crimper.
7. Continue to operate the crimper while monitoring the
gauge on the load cell. Note the reading on the
gauge when the relief valve activates. Make five
consecutive tests and record all of the readings.
8. See the manual supplied with your crimper for the
proper relief valve pressure range. If the highest
pressure displayed by the load cell is outside of this
range, adjust the relief valve setting as described in
the crimper manual or send the crimper to an
authorized service station for adjustment.
