CR5974 H<strong>and</strong> Crimp Tool for “SPOX”2.50 pitch Terminals<br />
OPERATION<br />
Open the tool by squeezing the h<strong>and</strong>les together, at the end of the closing stroke, the<br />
ratchet mechanism will release the h<strong>and</strong>les, <strong>and</strong> the h<strong>and</strong> tool will spring open.<br />
Crimping Terminals<br />
1. Lift the locator blade <strong>and</strong> place the terminal into the correct die profile (A or B),<br />
release the locator blade. Not all tools are equipped with a locator or locator<br />
blade.<br />
TERMINAL<br />
2. Partially close the tool until the terminal is held in place, (See Figure 2).<br />
Figure 1<br />
3. Place a wire into the terminal <strong>and</strong> up against the locator blade, (See Figure 3). On tools without locators line the wire up with the<br />
conductor <strong>and</strong> insulation grips visually.<br />
4. Close the tool until the ratchet releases, (See Figure 4).<br />
5. Lift the locator blade or wire stop up.<br />
6. Carefully remove the crimped terminal.<br />
Maintenance<br />
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of, <strong>and</strong> responsible for, the following maintenance steps:<br />
1. Remove dust, moisture, <strong>and</strong> other contaminants with a clean brush, or soft, lint free cloth.<br />
2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool.<br />
3. Make certain all pins; pivot points <strong>and</strong> bearing surfaces are protected with a thin coat of high quality machine oil. Do not oil<br />
excessively.<br />
4. When tool is not in use, keep the h<strong>and</strong>les closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in the crimping dies, <strong>and</strong> store the tool<br />
in a clean, dry area.<br />
Miscrimps or Jams<br />

Should this tool ever become stuck or jammed in a partially closed position, Do Not force the h<strong>and</strong>les open or closed. The tool will<br />
open easily by lifting the ratchet release lever (See Figure 4).<br />

CR5974 H<strong>and</strong> Crimp Tool for “SPOX”2.50 pitch Terminals<br />
How To Adjust Tool Crimp Force (See Figure 4)<br />
It may be necessary over the life of the tool to adjust tool-crimping force. Listed below are the steps required to adjust the crimping<br />
force of the h<strong>and</strong> tool to obtain proper crimp conditions:<br />
1. Remove the screw <strong>and</strong> washer. Located over the adjustment ring.<br />
2. Lift the adjusting ring slightly, off of the locating pin.<br />
3. Turn the adjusting ring in the desired direction (L= less force, T= more force) to increase or decrease crimp pressure.<br />
4. Press the adjusting wheel flat against the tool <strong>and</strong> engage the locking pin.<br />
5. Replace the washer <strong>and</strong> screw.<br />
6. Check the crimp specifications after tool crimp force is adjusted.<br />
Warranty<br />
This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool is made of the best quality materials. All vital components are long<br />
life tested. All tools are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for a period of 30 days. Should such a defect occur, we<br />
would exchange the tool free of charge. This will not be applicable to altered, misused, or damaged tools. This tool is designed for<br />
h<strong>and</strong> use only. Any clamping, fixturing, or use of h<strong>and</strong>le extensions voids this warranty.<br />
H<strong>and</strong> held crimping tools are intended for low volume, prototyping, or repair requirements only.<br />
Notes:<br />
Caution: Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.<br />
1. This tool should only be used for the terminals <strong>and</strong> wire gauges specified on this sheet.<br />
2. This tool is not adjustable for crimp height, however crimp force is adjustable (See instructions above). Variations in tools,<br />
terminals, wire str<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> insulation types may affect crimp height.<br />
3. This tool is intended for st<strong>and</strong>ard conductor sizes. It may not give a good insulation crimp support for all insulation sizes.<br />
4. <strong>Molex</strong> does not repair h<strong>and</strong> tools (see warranty above) The replacement parts listed are the only parts available for repair. If the<br />
h<strong>and</strong>les or crimp tooling is damaged or worn, a new tool must be purchased.<br />
5. Pull force should be used as the final criteria for an acceptable crimp. Pull force is measured with no influence from the<br />
insulation crimp. The insulation should be stripped long (1/2 in.) so the insulation grips on the terminal do not grip the wire<br />
insulation or the conductor. Refer to <strong>Molex</strong> Quality Crimping H<strong>and</strong>book 63800-0029 for additional information on crimping<br />
<strong>and</strong> crimp testing.<br />
6. <strong>Molex</strong> does not certify crimp h<strong>and</strong> tools.<br />
CAUTION: <strong>Molex</strong> crimp specifications are valid only when used with <strong>Molex</strong> terminals, applicators <strong>and</strong> tooling.<br />
