▲To achieve IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 2 Crimps, the following overall wire insulation diameter ranges are recommended:
Profile A: 1.40-1.55mm (.055-.061”)
Profile B: 1.30-1.45mm (.051-.057”)
Profile C: 1.35-1.60mm (.053-.063”)
Tool Qualification Notes
1. Pull force should be measured with no influence from the insulation crimp.
2. The above specifications are guidelines to an optimum crimp.
Notes
1. This tool should only be used for the terminals and wire gauges specified on this sheet.
2. This tool is not adjustable for crimp height. Variations in tools, terminals, wire stranding,
and insulation types may affect crimp height.
3. This tool is intended for standard conductor sizes. It may not give a good insulation crimp
support for all insulation sizes.
4. Molex does not repair hand tools (see warranty above). The replacement parts listed are the
only parts available for repair. If the handles or crimp tooling is damaged or worn, a new
tool must be purchased.
5. Pull force should be used as the final criteria for an acceptable crimp. Pull force is
measured with no influence from the insulation crimp. The insulation should be stripped
long (1/2 in.) so the insulation grips on the terminal do not grip the wire insulation or
the conductor. Refer to Molex Quality Crimping Handbook 63800-0029 for additional
information on crimping and crimp testing.
6. Molex does not certify hand crimp tools.

OPERATION
Open the tool by squeezing the handles together. At the end of the closing stroke, the ratchet
mechanism will release the handles, and the hand tool will spring open.
1. With the hand tool in the open position, pivot the terminal
locator open by pulling on the locator knob and lift the wire
stop blade. See Figure 1.
2. Insert the terminal into the correct profile until the terminal
is fully seated and stops. Make sure the wire stop blade is
fully in the up position.
3. Gently pivot the locator closed.
4. Bring down the wire stop blade. Make sure the wire stop
blade is fully seated on the terminal behind the
conductor grip section.
5. Slide the pre-stripped wire into the terminal.
Make sure to aim the wire brush toward the tip
point on the wire stop blade. See Figure 2. Align
the wire so that it is parallel and sitting into the
terminal. Maintain a light and constant pressure
on the wire that is seated in the terminal at all
times. (Do not let go of the wire.) Be sure to hold
the wire and terminal in place until the terminal
is fully crimped. See Figure 3.
6. Close the tool until the ratchet releases. The tool
handles will then spring open.
7. Lift the wire stop blade.
8. Carefully remove the crimped terminal. Pivot the terminal locator slightly outward if
necessary. See Figure 4.

TERMINAL LOCATOR REPLACEMENT
This section describes the procedure for changing locators:
Removal
1. With the tool in the open position, pivot the terminal locator outward.
2. Remove the M4 BHCS. See Figure 5.
Installation
1. Place the locator on the hand tool. Install the M4 BHCS. See Figure 5.
2. Tighten the screw just enough to hold the locator. Make sure the locator can still float freely
with hand pressure.
3. Fully insert the proper terminal into the correct profile slot until the terminal is completely
seated and stops. Then, gently pivot the locator closed.
4. With hand pressure, slowly slide the locator to the correct position. See Figure 6.
5. Gently pivot the locator open without disturbing the location.
6. Hold the locator firmly in place, and slowly tighten the M4 BHCS.

MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of and responsible for the following
maintenance steps:
1. Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a clean brush or a soft, lint-free cloth.
2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool.
3. Make certain all pins, pivot points and bearing surfaces are protected with a thin coat of high-
quality machine oil. Do not oil excessively. The tool was engineered for durability, but like
any other equipment, it needs cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of trouble-
free crimping. Light oil (such as 30 weight automotive oil) used at the oil points every 5,000
crimps or 3 months will significantly enhance the tool life.
4. Wipe excess oil from the hand tool, particularly from the crimping area. Oil transferred from
the crimping area onto certain terminations may affect the electrical characteristics of an
application.
5. When the tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming
lodged in the crimping dies, and store the tool in a clean, dry area.
Miscrimps or Jams
Should this tool ever become stuck or jammed in a partially closed position, do not force the
handles open or closed. The tool will open easily by lifting the ratchet release lever. See Figure 10.
Warranty
This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool is made of the best quality
materials. All vital components are long-life tested. All tools are warranted to be free of
manufacturing defects for a period of 30 days. Should such a defect occur, Molex will repair or
exchange the tool free of charge. This repair or exchange will not be applicable to altered, misused
or damaged tools. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any clamping, fixturing or use of handle
extensions voids this warranty.
CAUTION: Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
CAUTIONS
1. Manually powered hand tools are intended for low-volume use or field repair. This tool is
NOT intended for production use. Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
2. Insulated rubber handles are not protection against electrical shock.
3. Wear eye protection at all times.
4. Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool.
CAUTION: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and
tooling.
