IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY

ALERT

SYMBOL

This symbol is used to call your attention to

hazards or unsafe practices which could result in

an injury or property damage. The signal word,

dened below, indicates the severity of the hazard.

The message after the signal word provides infor-

mation for preventing or avoiding the hazard.

Immediate hazards which, if not avoided, WILL

result in severe injury or death.

Hazards which, if not avoided, COULD result in

severe injury or death.

Hazards or unsafe practices which, if not avoided,

MAY result in injury or property damage.

Read and understand all of the

instructions and safety information

in this manual before operating or

servicing this tool.

Failure to observe this warning

could result in severe injury or

death.

Electric shock hazard:

This tool is not insulated. When

using this unit near energized

electrical lines, use proper personal

protective equipment.

Failure to observe this warning

could result in severe injury or

death.

Wear eye protection when operat-

ing or servicing this tool.

Failure to wear eye protection could

result in serious eye injury from

ying debris or hydraulic oil.

Skin injection hazard:

Do not use hands to check for

oil leaks. High pressure oil easily

punctures skin causing serious

injury, gangrene, or death. If injured,

seek medical help immediately to

remove oil.

Do not use solvents or ammable

liquids to clean the crimping tool.

Solvents or ammable liquids could

ignite and cause serious injury or

property damage.

An incomplete crimp can cause a re.

Use proper die, connector, and cable combina-

tions. Improper combinations can result in an

incomplete crimp.

The relief valve will sound to indicate a completed

crimp, and the ram will retract. If you do not hear

the sound of the relief valve, the crimp is not

complete.

Failure to observe these warnings could result in

severe injury or death.

•

Keep hands away from the crimp-

ing head when crimping.

Failure to observe this warning

could result in severe injury or

death.

Do not allow anything to contact the battery

terminals.

Do not immerse the batteries in liquid. Liquid may

create a short circuit and damage the battery.

If batteries are immersed, contact your service

center for proper handling.

Do not place the battery into a pocket, tool

pouch, or tool box with conductive objects.

Conductive objects may create a short circuit and

damage the battery.

Do not place a battery on moist ground or grass.

Moisture may create a short circuit and damage

the battery.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in

injury or property damage.

•

Do not store the battery at more than 60 °C

(140 °F). Damage to the battery can result.

Do not use another manufacturer’s charger. Other

manufacturers’ chargers may overcharge and

damage the battery.

Do not attempt to open the battery. It contains no

user-serviceable parts.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in

injury or property damage.

•

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.

Note: Keep all decals clean and legible, and replace

when necessary.

Do not dispose of batteries in a re. They will vent

fumes and may explode.

Failure to observe this warning could result in

severe injury from harmful fumes or burns from

ying debris.

Inspect tool and dies before use. Replace any

worn or damaged parts. A damaged or improp-

erly assembled tool can break and strike nearby

personnel.

Failure to observe this warning could result in severe

injury or death.

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.

This tool may be used in damp or wet environ-

ments, however, we recommend air drying the

tool before use if it becomes soaked. Damage

may result when the tool is operated prior to

drying out when electrical components are

soaked.

Use this tool for the manufacturer’s intended

purpose only.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in

Operation (continued)

Installing Dies

1. Select the proper dies for the connector to be

crimped.

2. Install dies in jaws making certain that they are

properly secured by the spring-loaded detents.

Preparing Cable

Follow the lug manufacturer’s instructions for appro-

priate cable strip length.

Crimping Procedure

1. Insert conductor into the connector and align the

tool and die on the connector. Start in the center

for splices and on the end, nearest the pad, for

terminals.

2. Activate the tool by pulling the trigger. Continue to

hold the trigger until the ram retracts. This is the

signal that the crimp is complete.

3. Continue crimping the connector until the correct

number of crimps has been completed. Work from

the center to the outer edges for splices, alternat-

ing sides if possible, for the best compression

connections.

An incomplete crimp can cause a re.

Use proper die, connector, and cable combina-

tions. Improper combinations can result in an

incomplete crimp.

The relief valve will sound to indicate a completed

crimp, and the ram will retract. If you do not hear

the sound of the relief valve, the crimp is not

complete.

Failure to observe these warnings could result in

severe injury or death.

seek medical help immediately to

remove oil.

After use:

1. Wipe all tool surfaces clean with a damp cloth and

mild detergent.

Do not use solvents or ammable

liquids to clean the crimping tool.

Solvents or ammable liquids could

ignite and cause serious injury or

property damage.

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

case. Store in a cool, dry place.

3. Charge the battery.

Monthly

1. Thoroughly clean all surfaces.

2. Oil the pin joints.

Annually or After 10,000 Crimps

Return the tool to an authorized Greenlee service

center for inspection.

Troubleshooting

Before You Begin

1. Make sure that the battery is charged. Recheck

the battery after several minutes to make sure the

battery is holding its charge.

2. Use a nonﬂammable contact cleaner or pencil

eraser to clean the electrical contacts on the

battery and crimping tool.

3. Reinstall the battery and check the tool again.
