the handles and remove the cam locking screw with a
1/16" hex wrench.
2) Rotate the cam clockwise to increase handle load or
counterclockwise to decrease the handle load.
3) Position odd numbers on the cam in the locking screw
hole adjacent to the letter "T" and even numbers
adjacent to the letter"T".
4) Lock the cam at the desired handle load setting and re-
measure force. Continue adjusting if needed.

Tool Maintenance
Maintenance and inspection should be performed regularly. Tool should be wiped clean with special
emphasis on the crimping cavities.
Tool may be cleaned by immersing in a suitable commercial solvent or cleaner which does not attack
paints or plastic material. The tool should be re-lubricated after cleaning using a light film of a medium
weight oil on bearing surfaces and pivot pins. When not in use, keep handles closed to prevent
objects from becoming lodged in the crimping dies and store in a clean dry area
