Compression cycles

This guide indicates the number of compression cycles that the
TBM62PCR-LI can be expected to perform when the battery is
fully charged. These figures are approximate and will vary
according to the charging and other operating conditions, such
as temperature, humidity, and battery condition.
Conductor Average compressions per charge
4/0 - 4/0 H-Tap
500 kcmil
Switch operation
1. The ram advances when the Trigger is depressed and stops
when the Trigger is released.
2. To retract the ram, depress the Release button. The ram
continues to retract while the Release button is depressed. If
the auto-retract feature is activated, the ram will automatically
retract after the crimp is completed. See "Compression
operation" section, page 4 for instructions on enabling and
disabling the auto-retract function.

Compression operation

1. Retract the Ram fully by pressing the release button
Operation, page 4).
2. Open the tool head by lifting the Latch (Figure 1).
3. Select the appropriate size dies for the connector being used.
4. Loosen the two Die Retaining Screws. Insert one die half into
the C-head and then insert the other half of the die into the
Ram (Figure 2). Tighten the Die Retaining Screws.
5. The tool also accepts Burndy "W" type dies. Use of Burndy "W"
dies requires that the die set DBL be installed first according
to step 4. The "W" dies are then installed over the DBL dies
and are secured in place by the spring loaded pins (Figure 3).
6. Close by lifting the C-Head until it is securely engaged to the
Latch (Figure 4).
7. Place connector between the dies. Press the trigger and
advance the Ram (Switch Operation, page 4) so the connector
is held lightly between the dies. Do not deform the connector.
8. Insert the conductor into the connector.
9. Press the trigger until the compression is complete. A series
of clicks will be heard followed by a release in the pressure
when compression is complete. The LED indicator will display
green followed by an audible beep when a complete
compression is made. During an incomplete compression
cycle, the LED indicator will flash red followed by a series of
multiple audible beeps due to early release of the trigger or a
low battery. The battery level can be checked by observing the
gauge directly on the battery.
10. Press the release button (Switch Operation, page 4) to
retract the ram. The ram continues to retract while the release
button is pressed. The ram stops when it is fully retracted.
11. Remove the compressed connector from the tool.
