Tool Qualification Not s
1. Pull force should be measured with no influence from the insulation crimp.
2. The above specifications are guidelines to an optimum crimp.
Not
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 performed 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 Punch s 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 18 long BHCS and tighten in place. See
Figure 1.

Locator Installation and R moval
Follow the steps below to install or replace the locator. See
Figure 2.
To install th locator
1. Position the locator with the hole over the brass pivot
shaft, and snap it into place.
To r mov th 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 of
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 T rminals
Swing the terminal locator against the crimp tool, and turn the lock up to lock the locator. Terminals can be loaded
easily while the locator is against the crimp tool and locked. The spring-loaded locator needs to be in the up
position for terminals to load easily.
1. To raise the wire stop, press the tab on the wire stop as shown in Figure 3. Insert the proper terminal into the
nest opening, and release the wire stop to lower it. Make sure when choosing the nest opening that it will
correspond with the A or B profile on the hand tool.
2. Insert the proper pre-striped wire over the terminal. Gently touch the wire stop with the end of the wire. See
Figures 4 and 5.
3. Compress the terminal by squeezing the tool handles until the ratchet mechanism cycle has been completed.
Release handles to open the jaws.

Not : The tamper-proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.
4. Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal locator by pressing the tab on the wire stop and gently pulling
on the wire.
5. Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper crimp location and crimp height.
For th Batt ry Pow r 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.
Maint nanc
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 in the tool head are
protected with a thin coat of high-quality
machine oil. Do not oil excessively. This
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. The
use of a light oil such as 30 weight
automotive oil every 5,000 crimps or monthly will significantly enhance the tool life and ensure a stable
calibration. See Figure 6A or 6B for lubrication points.
4. Store the tool in a clean and dry area when not in use.
Miscrimps or Jams for Crimp Hand Tools Only
(S Figur 9)
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 rotating the small slotted screw marked with an arrow. See Figure 9.
Warranty
This tool kit is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool kit 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 kit free of charge. This repair or exchange
will not be applicable to altered, misused or damaged tools.

Handheld crimping tools are intended for low-volume use, prototyping or repair requirements only.
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 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: Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
C rtification
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. mm (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 website for the Quality Crimp Handbook for more information on pull
testing.
% When the hand tool is no longer capable of achieving minimum pull force, it should be taken out of service and
replaced.
% This tool is very difficult to disassemble and reassemble. Customer repair is not recommended.
