1. Select the desired terminal listed in the preceding charts.

2. Make sure the center of the locator is in the down position. With the

locator attached, push the locator button on the back of the hand tool to

bring the locator forward through the tooling. See Figure 2.

3. While holding the locator button in, load the terminal into the proper nest

opening in the locator based on the wire gauge or terminal type

markings on the hand tooling. See Figure 3.

4. Release the locator button, allowing the locator to return to the crimping

position.

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.
