OPERATION
To reduce the risk of arc flash,
WARNING
electric shock and property
damage, work on deenergized lines when
possible. Tool is not insulated. Should work
on energized lines be required, ensure all proper
precautions, including those contained in NFPA
70E, have been taken first.
Keep hands away from crimping jaws
while tool is in use. Fingers could be
crushed.
Always wear proper eye protection marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Crimping
Before crimping:
• Inspect the jaws and dies for cracks or other dam-
age. Do not use damaged jaws or dies. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility.
• Ensure retaining pin is properly seated and dies are
properly installed.
• Jaws, dies, connectors, and cables must be used
in an APPROVED COMBINATION. Improper
combinations can result in a faulty crimp.
• Inspect and discard workpieces with cracks or wear
before use. Materials may crack or shatter.
• Follow installation specifications as specified in
Table A or B using an Approved Combination of
jaws, dies, connectors and cables as indicated.
Other uses may cause damage to the tool, acces-
sories, and workpiece.
1. Insert battery pack.
2. Place jaws with installed dies around the connector.
3. Hold tool securely. Press and hold the trigger.
4. When the cycle is complete the tool will switch off
and the indicator will light. Release the trigger.
LED
Indicator Definition
Solid Green Tool completed the operation and
reached full crimping pressure.
Solid Red Tool completed the operation but did
NOT reach full crimping pressure.
Flashing Red Tool did NOT complete the
operation.
Flashing Tool has reached its service interval
Red/Green (40,000 crimps). Red/Green flashing
will begin after the solid Red or Green
(after Solid
indicator for the operation is displayed.
Green or
MILWAUKEE recommends that the
Solid Red)
tool be inspected and preventative
maintenance completed. Return tool
to a MILWAUKEE service facility.
5. Continue crimping according to the instructions
in Table A or B, or the connector manufacturer's
installation instructions.
• Crimps should be uniformly placed on the barrel
of the connector.
• Crimps should be reasonably placed within the
color bands or knurled area of the connector.
• For splices, begin crimping in the center, working
outward while alternating sides.
• For lugs, begin crimping near the pad, working
towards the barrel.
• The orientation of the crimp is not critical on
seamless barrel connectors, but for best results
rotate the tool 180° between crimps.
6. Two LEDs will light the workpiece when the trigger
is pulled.
7. The die identifier is pressed into the connector
during the crimp.
Backup Release Valve
If the jaws need to be opened without completing the
cycle, press and hold the backup release valve. Hold
tool securely until the cylinder retracts fully.
MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug the charger and remove the
battery pack from the charger or tool before
performing any maintenance. Never disassemble
the battery pack, charger, or tool, except as pro-
vided in these instructions. Contact a MILWAUKEE
service facility for all other repairs.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.
Inspect your tool for issues such as undue noise,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, or any other condition that may affect the tool
operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for inspection.
If the tool does not start or operate at full power with
a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts on
the battery pack. If the tool still does not work prop-
erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
