5. Close the tool handle until the first ratchet position engages. See Figure

4.

6. Insert the properly stripped wire through the terminal and against the wire

stop. See Figure 5.

7. Crimp the terminal by squeezing the tool handles until the ratchet

mechanism cycle has been completed. Release the handles to open the

jaws.

Note: The tamper-proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.

8. Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal locator by pulling

on the wire.

9. Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper crimp location.

10. On some large O.D. wires, it may not be possible to insert the

wire with the tool partially closed. Those wires should be inserted

with the hand tool in the open position. Insert the wire above the

terminal in the punch and against the wire stop, and then close

the tool. See Figure 6.
