Notes:
1. Solder crimp heights are supplied for tool calibration only. To
verify tool calibration, insert solder slug (5% tin and 95% lead) into
the crimping profile of the hand tool. Close the hand tool
completely, as if a terminal and wire combination is present.
Measure the solder for crimp height and width. See Figure 1.
Actual crimp heights will vary with every terminal, conductor, and
insulation combinations.
Ψ 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.
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.
Crimping Terminals
1. Place the proper terminal into the correct die profile
(A or B), and into the locator block till the terminal
stops. The front of the terminal should sit a little on
the terminal insulation grip guide. See Figure 1.
2. Partially close the tool until the terminal is held in place.

3. Place a properly stripped wire into the
terminal and down into insulation grip guide.
See Figure 2.
. Close the tool until the ratchet releases.
5. Carefully lift up on the wire and remove the
crimped terminal.
Note: The tamper proof ratchet action will not
release the tool until it has been fully closed.
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 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.
. Wipe excess oil from hand tool, particularly from crimping area. Oil transferred from the crimping area onto
certain terminations may affect the electrical characteristics of an application.
5. When 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 ).
How to Adjust Tool Crimp Force (See Figure )
It may be necessary over the life of the tool to adjust tool-crimping force. Listed
below are the steps required to adjust the crimping force of the hand tool to
obtain proper crimp conditions:
1. Loosen the stud nut on the back of the handle.
2. With a screwdriver in the slot on the other side of the stud, adjust the force.
Clockwise will increase the force, counter clockwise will decrease the force.
3. Retighten the nut.
. Check the crimp specifications after tool force adjustment.

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, we 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 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.
. Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool.
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, however crimp force is adjustable (See instructions above).
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.
. 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 crimp hand tools.
CAUTION: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling.
