▲To Achieve IPC-A-620 Class 2 Crimps, the following over-all wire insulation diameter ranges are recommended:
Profile A: (UL1061) 1.10mm –1.20mm (0.043in –0.047in)
Profile B: (UL1007) 1.30mm –1.40mm (0.051in –0.055in)
Profile C: (UL1061) 1.05mm –1.15mm (0.041in –0.045in)
Profile D: (UL1007) 1.20mm –1.30mm (0.047in –0.051in)
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 crimp hand 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 up. 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 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 towards 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 up.
8. Carefully remove the crimped terminal. Pivot the terminal
locator slightly out if necessary. See Figure 4.
Note: The tamper proof ratchet action will not release the tool
until it has been fully closed.
Note: To maintain good brush control and a consistent bell
mouth the crimping instructions must be followed.

Terminal Locator Replacement/Change Over
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 4.
Installation
1. Place the replacement locator on the hand tool. Install the M4 BHCS.
See Figure 6.
2. Tighten the screw enough to hold the locator. Make sure the locator can still float freely with hand pressure.
3. Insert the proper terminal fully into the correct profile slot
until the terminal is fully 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 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 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 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, 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.
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.
