4.1.1 Use of crimping dies

When using the 22 style dies (see tab 4) the retaining clips have to be actuated while the dies will be inserted conse-
qutively from the side into the head respectively the adapter.
During the crimping process the connecting material is positioned in the stationary half of the die whereas the moving
part of the die is approaching the compression point3.
After having reached the maximum crimping force the dies return into the starting position automatically.
