▲Insulation Crimp Note:
Due to the terminal’s insulation grip design
and/or insulation diameter range, this tool
uses “overlap” form geometry in the insulation
punch. This produces an overlap insulation
crimp (A620 – compliant). While the insulation
punch profile may appear “lopsided”, this is a
normal condition for this tool. See figure to the
right. (Some tools with multiple crimp pockets
may not have the “overlap” profile on all
pockets).
CONDITIONS:
After crimping, the conductor profiles should
measure the following (see notes below).

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.
Note:
A crimp height chart is provided with this manual as Reference Only. Due to the wide range of wires, strands,
insulation diameters, and durometers, actual crimp height measurements may very slightly. An occasional,
destructive, pull force test should be preformed to check hand tool crimp. Pull Force value must exceed the
minimum pull force specifications listed.
CAUTION: Install only Molex terminals listed above with this tool. Do not crimp hardened objects as damage
can occur to the tool or die.
INSTALLATION
To install the Tool Kit into the Power Crimp Head follow the steps below:
Anvils and Punches Installation
1. Insert the Anvils into the bottom slots of the nest. Install the M4 x 10 long BHCS and tighten in place.
2. Insert the Punches into the top slots of the nest. Install the M4 x 1 long BHCS and tighten in place. See

Locator Installation and Removal
Follow the steps below to install or replace the locator. See Figure 2.
To install the locator
1. Position the locator with the hole over the brass pivot shaft and snap it into place.
To remove the locator
1. Open the crimp hand tool.
2. Swing the existing locator open and away from the hand tool.
3. Firmly press down on the brass pivot shaft with your thumb, while
pulling the locator up. Slip the locator off the top of the brass pivot
shaft.
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. Select the desired terminal listed in the preceding charts.
2. Swing the terminal locator away from the crimp tool shown in Figure 4. Some terminals with large insulation
grips may interfere with the crimp tooling when swinging the locator into position. The terminal must then be
loaded into the locator in the closed/crimp position.
3. When using the locator, press down on the wire stop on the locator as shown in Figure 4. Insert the proper
terminal into the proper nest opening. Make sure when choosing the nest opening, it will correspond with the
A or B profile on the hand tool.
4. Return the locator to its original position.
5. Insert the proper wire over the terminal. Some large O.D. wires may need to be placed into the terminal before
closing the tool. Gently touch the wire stop with the end of the wire. See Figure 5.
6. Compress the terminal by squeezing the tool handles until the ratchet mechanism cycle has been completed.
Release handles to open the jaws.

7. Remove the crimped
terminal from the terminal
locator by pressing down
on the wire stop and
gently pulling on the wire.
The terminal locator can
be in either position.
. Visually inspect the
crimped terminal for
proper crimp location.
Note: The tamper proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.
For the Battery Power Tool:
1. Cycle the Battery Power Tool to crimp the terminal to the wire.
2. Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal locator by pressing down on the wire stop and gently pulling on
the wire. The terminal locator can be in either position.
3. Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper crimp location.
Locator Replacement
See the parts list on the last page of this document for the proper locator order number. Follow the steps below to
replace the locator.
1. Open the crimp hand tool.
2. Swing the existing locator open and away from the hand tool.

3. Firmly press down on the brass pivot shaft
with your thumb, while pulling the locator
up. Slip the locator off the top of the
brass pivot shaft. See Figure 6.
4. Replace it with the proper locator by
putting over the brass pivot shaft and
snapping it into place.
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 fine piece of equipment it needs
cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of trouble free crimping. Use a 30 weight automotive (light)
oil used at the oil points, every 5,000 crimps or 3 months, shown in Figure 7A or 7B will significantly enhance
the tool life.
4. 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 pressing the ratchet release lever. See Figure .
How to Adjust Tool Preload (See Figure 8)
This hand tool is factory preset to 25-45 LBS. preload. It may be necessary over the life of the tool to adjust tool
handle preload force. Listed below are the steps required to adjust the crimping force of the hand tool to obtain
proper crimp conditions:
1. Remove or fold back the handle grip from the handle to expose the eccentric axle and setting wheel.
2. Remove the locking screw with a 2mm hex wrench. The wrench set (63 10-0101), is not supplied. It is sold
separately from the hand tool.

3. Turn the eccentric axle and setting wheel with the wrench or pliers Counter-clockwise (CCW) to increase
handle force.
4. Replace the locking screw, aligning the nearest notch in the setting wheel to locking screw.
5. Replace the handle grip.
6. Check the crimp specifications or conduct a pull test after tool handle preload force is adjusted.
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: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling.
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.
4. Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool.
Certi ication
Molex does not certify or re-certify commercial grade hand tools but rather supplies the following guidelines for
customers to re-certify hand tools.
% This tool is qualified to pull force only. To re-certify, crimp a terminal to a wire, which has been stripped
12.7mm (1/2”) long, so there is no crimping of the insulation. Pull the terminal and wire at a rate no faster than
25mm (1.00”) per minute. See the Molex web site for the Quality Crimp Handbook for more information on pull
testing.
% If the tool does not meet minimum pull force values, handle preload should be increased and the pull test
rerun, (See How To Adjust Preload).
% When the hand tool is no longer capable of achieving minimum pull force, it should be taken out of service and
replaced.
