IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Read and understand all of the

instructions and safety information

in this manual before operating or

servicing this tool.

Failure to observe this warning will

result in severe injury or death.

•Do not expose to rain.

•Do not use in wet or damp

locations.

Failure to observe these warnings

could result in severe injury or death.

Electric shock hazard:

•Connect the power cord to a

receptacle of proper voltage for

the tool in use on a ground fault-

protected circuit only.

•Do not modify the power cord or

plug.

•Inspect the power cord before use.

Repair or replace the cord if

damaged.

•Do not pull or carry by cord, use

the cord as a handle, close a door

on the cord, run over the cord, or

pull the cord around sharp edges

or corners. Keep the cord away

from heated surfaces.

•Do not unplug by pulling on the

cord. To unplug, grasp and pull the

plug—not the cord.

•Disconnect from power before

servicing.

Failure to observe these warnings

could result in severe injury or death.

Do not use this crimping tool in a

hazardous environment. Hazards

include flammable liquids, gases, or

other materials. Using this crimping

tool in a hazardous environment can

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

An incomplete crimp can cause a fire.

•Use proper die, connector, and cable combina-

tions. Improper combinations can result in an

incomplete crimp.

•An audible “pop” indicates that the crimping tool

has achieved a complete crimp. If you do not

hear a “pop,” the crimp is incomplete.

Failure to observe these warnings could result in

severe injury or death.

Do not operate the tool while wearing loose clothing.

Loose clothing can get caught in moving parts.

Failure to observe this warning could result in severe

injury or death.

Wear eye protection when operating

or servicing this tool.

Failure to wear eye protection could

result in serious eye injury from

flying debris or hydraulic oil.

Skin injection hazard:

Do not use hands to check for oil

leaks. Oil under pressure easily

punctures skin. If injured, seek

medical attention immediately to

remove oil.

Failure to observe this warning could

result in serious injury, gangrene, or

death.

Do not use solvents or flammable

cleaners to clean the tool body.

Solvents could ignite, causing

serious injury or property damage.

Pinch points:

Keep hands away from the crimping

tool head when crimping.

Failure to observe this warning could

result in severe injury or death.

Note: Keep all decals clean and legible, and replace

when necessary.

Do not perform any service or maintenance other

than as described in this manual. Injury or damage

to the tool may result.

Failure to observe this precaution may result in

injury and property damage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Inspect tool before use. Replace any worn or

damaged parts with Greenlee replacement parts.

A damaged or improperly assembled tool can break

and strike nearby personnel.

Failure to observe this warning could result in severe

injury or death.

•Do not operate the tool without dies. Damage to

the ram or crimping tool head can result.

•This tool is not designed for continuous use.

After 30 to 40 crimping cycles, allow the crimping

tool to cool for 15 minutes.

•Do not place the tool in a vise. The crimping tool

is designed for hand-held operation.

•Ensure that all bystanders are away from the

work area when operating the tool.

•Ensure that the work area is clean, dry,

uncluttered, and well-lit.

• Use this tool for the manufacturer’s intended

purpose only.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in

injury or property damage.

Extension cords:

•Use only 16, 14, or 12 AWG

extension cords.

• Do not use extension cords that

are longer than 30 m (100').

•Repair or replace damaged

extension cords.

Failure to observe these warnings

could result in severe injury or death.

returns to the start position and the dies retract.

9. When using KC12-type dies, complete the number

of crimps listed on the “Connector Selection” chart in

this manual. For other dies, complete the number of

crimps specified by the manufacturer.

10. Remove the connector from the crimping tool.

Note: After completing the last crimp on an aluminum

connector, wipe off the excess oxide inhibitor.

Maintenance

Wear eye protection when operating

or servicing this tool.

Failure to wear eye protection could

result in serious eye injury from

flying debris or hydraulic oil.

Skin injection hazard:

Do not use hands to check for oil

leaks. Oil under pressure easily

punctures skin. If injured, seek

medical attention immediately to

remove oil.

Failure to observe this warning could

result in serious injury, gangrene, or

death.

Do not use solvents or flammable

cleaners to clean the tool body.

Solvents could ignite, causing

serious injury or property damage.

Daily

Before use:

1. Inspect dies for wear or damage, such as cracks,

gouges, or chips.

2. Inspect the crimping tool for damage or leaks.

After use:

1. Use a damp cloth and mild detergent to clean the

housing. Allow the housing to dry.

2. Fully retract the ram. Place the crimping tool in the

carrying case and store in a cool, dry place.

Monthly

1. Thoroughly clean all surfaces.

2. Check the oil level.

3. Perform the “Periodic Pressure Relief Valve Check.”

Annually or After 10,000 Crimps

1. Replace the hydraulic oil.

2. Send the tool to an authorized Greenlee service

center for inspection.

Checking the Oil Level

1. Remove the two screws that retain the tank housing

cover. Remove the tank housing cover.

2. Point the crimping head downward and remove the

oil reservoir plug. Fill reservoir if necessary.

3. Replace the oil plug and tank housing cover.

Periodic Pressure ReliefValve Check

The crimping tool’s relief valve may require occasional

adjustment. To determine whether this adjustment is

necessary, periodically test the crimping tool with a

Greenlee model 35887 Load Cell (purchased

separately).

1. Insert the test die into the tool (refer to steps 3 and 4

under “Operation” in this manual). Position the load

cell so that the load cell piston is centered between

the two test dies.

2. Press the trigger until the crimping tool achieves

pressure relief and note the position of the needle

when the pressure relief is achieved. The needle

should indicate the “12T” range; if the needle is

outside of this range, send the crimping tool to an

authorized service center for adjustment.

Note: If some other type of load cell is used, the ratio

between the area of the tool and the area of the load

cell may be different. The appropriate corresponding

pressure range depends upon this ratio.

Relief valve adjustments must be done by an

authorized service center.

Pinch points:

Keep hands away from the crimping

tool head when crimping.

Failure to observe this warning could

result in severe injury or death.
