These tools are members of the CERTI--CRIMP hand
crimping tool family. The ratchet ensures full crimping
of the product. Once engaged, the ratchet will not
release until the handles have been FULLY closed.
The crimping jaws bottom before the ratchet
releases. This design feature assures maximum
tensile performance of the crimp. DO NOT
re--adjust the ratchet.
3. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
Refer to Figure 3 to ensure that the correct tool and
product combination is being used. Figure 3 also lists
the number of dots (or dots and rib) that appear
embossed on a crimped product when it is crimped
using the correct tooling.

1. Strip the wire to the dimension provided in
Figure 3 being careful to avoid nicking or cutting
the conductor(s).
DO NOT use wire with nicked or missing
conductor(s).
2. Open the tool jaws by closing the tool handles
until the ratchet releases, then allow the handles to
open fully.
