CAUTION: Install only Molex terminals listed above with this tool. Do not crimp hardened objects - damage can
occur to the tool or die.
Open the tool by squeezing the handles together, at the end ofthe closing stroke, the ratchet mechanism will
release the handles, and the hand tool will spring open.
Crimping Terminals
Swing the terminallocator 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 tooland locked. The spring-loaded locator needs to be in the up
position for terminals to load easily.
