Before completing crimping:
-
Check that the butt connector is correctly located in the crimp tool forming section.
-
Check the cables are still in the correct position in the butt connector.
If the butt connector is not correctly located, abort the crimp operation.
On most crimp tools of this type there is a locking device that can be released to open the tool. See picture.
Complete the crimping operation:
-
Press the tool grips together to close the jaws
Do not release pressure on the grips until the tool has fully completed the crimp operation. Not until then will complete crimping have occurred and the
tool can be opened.
Inspect the crimped butt connector
If the butt connector has been correctly crimped both crimping points should be uniformly compressed.
All cables should be crimped in place towards the center of the butt connector and not displaced towards the ends.
Pull the cables to ensure that none are loose.
