FEATURES

A full cycle ratcheting hand tool ensures complete crimps Ergonomic soft grip handles for comfortable crimping For crimps conforming to industry standards such as UL, USCAR21, and WHMA-IPCA620 Class 2, please use the 63811-4400 Premium Grade™ hand tool for the Molex terminal SCOPE Products : MX150L™ Crimp Terminals, 14-22 AWG. Crimping Information: Crimp the terminal and appropriate gauge wire in the specified profile.

Note: An occasional, destructive, pull force test with the terminal and wire crimped should be performed to check hand tool crimp. The pull force value must exceed the terminal’s minimum pull force specifications listed above. If values do not exceed the minimum pull force when all instructions are followed then a new tool is required.

Hand Crimp Tool for MX150L™ Crimp Terminals Doc No: ATS-640160035 Release Date: 06-25-12 UNCONTROLLED COPY Page 3 of 4 Revision: B Revision Date: 06-25-12 Note: The illustration is a general representation. Some of the terminals may look different and be held in a different area of the terminal. 6. Continue to close the tool handles until the anti-backup ratchet releases. Allow the handles to open. 7. Remove the crimped terminal from the tool. 8. Inspect the crimp for loose wire strands, missing crimp, or other damage. Any minor terminal bending may be straightened by hand. Maintenance It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of, and responsible for, the following maintenance steps: 1. Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants with a clean brush, or soft, lint free cloth. 2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool. 3. Make certain all pins; pivot points and bearing surfaces are protected with a thin coat of high quality machine oil. Do not oil excessively. Light oil (such as SAE30W oil) applied at the oil points, shown in Figure 3, every 5,000 crimps or 3 months, is recommended. 4. Wipe excess oil from hand tool, particularly from crimping area. Oil transferred from the crimping area onto certain terminations may affect the electrical characteristics of an application. 5. When tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in the crimping dies, and store the tool in a clean, dry area. Miscrimps or Jams If the tool ever becomes jammed in a partially closed position, DO NOT force the handles open or closed. The tool will open by lifting the ratchet release lever. See Figure 4. Tool Handle Preload Tool handle preload should not require adjustment upon receipt of tool. This hand tool is set from the factory to a preload that will fully close the tool jaws without excessive force from the operator. Over the life of the tool the tool linkage can wear and handle preload force may decrease and preload can be adjusted. It is the operator’s responsibility to periodically perform a tensile pull test on the crimped wire. If the pull test value falls below the specification, the preload should be adjusted. If after adjustment, the crimp does not meet the pull test value, then the tool should be replaced. Fig ure 3 Fig ure 4 RATCHET RELEASE LEVER TERMINAL Figure 2 WIRE CONDUCTOR ANVIL INSULATION ANVIL

Hand Crimp Tool for MX150L™ Crimp Terminals Doc No: ATS-640160035 Release Date: 06-25-12 UNCONTROLLED COPY Page 4 of 4 Revision: B Revision Date: 06-25-12 Warranty This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. All tools are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for a period of 30 days. Should such a defect occur, the tool will be repaired or exchanged free of charge. This exchange will not be applicable to altered, misused, or damaged tools. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any clamping, fixturing, or use of handle extensions voids this warranty. ServiceGrade™ crimp hand tools are low cost tools used in field repair for a limited number of terminations. If a high quality tool is required or a higher volume of terminations required, please purchase the corresponding PremiumGrade™ crimp hand tool. A ServiceGrade™ crimp tool may or may not have a terminal locator and in some case may need the locator removed to operate properly. CAUTION : Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals and tooling. CAUTIONS: 1. Manually powered hand tools are intended for low volume or field repair. This tool is NOT intended for production use. Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided. 2. Insulated rubber handles are not protection against electrical shock. NEVER perform crimps on active electrical circuits. 3. Wear eye protection at all times. 4. Use only the Molex terminals specified for crimping with this tool. Certification Molex does not certify or re-certify ServiceGrade™ hand tools but rather supplies the following guidelines for customers to maintain their hand tools. % This tool is qualified to pull force only. To re-certify, crimp a terminal to a wire, which has been stripped 12.7mm (1/2”) long, so there is no crimping of the insulation. Pull the terminal and wire at a rate no faster than 25mm (1.00”) per minute. See the Molex web site for the Quality Crimp Handbook for more information on pull testing. % When the hand tool is no longer capable of achieving minimum pull force, it should be replaced.
