Battery Crimping Tool
1 Introduction
1.1
Product Specification
The battery crimping tool is an electric crimping tool for the Molex interchangeable crimping
system.
The tool is especially developed for industrial applications. Because of the interchangeable tool
heads as well as the crimp die sets of the Molex crimp system, which can easily be adapted, a wide
range of different contacts can be crimped. Adapters, tool heads and die sets can easily be
exchanged without any additional tooling.
The battery crimping tool incorporates an automatic retraction, which returns the ram into its
starting position when the maximum force is reached. Furthermore, the tool is equipped with a
special brake that stops the forward motion of the ram and the dies when the trigger is released.
The low weight, the small and handy design as well as the ergonomic 2-component housing
guaranties a comfortable secure one-handed operation. To simplify operation and gain better
access to tight corners and other difficult working areas, the crimping head may be rotated by hand
360° relative to the body.
All other applications of the battery crimping tool are only permitted with written permission of the
manufacturer. For all unauthorized applications of the battery crimping tool, the manufacturer
cannot be held liable for any resultant damage or injury.
1.2
Conformity
The tool may only be used for the purpose specified in the operating instruction. The
manufacturers and suppliers will not be liable for any damages that may result due to the
tool being used for a purpose other than that for which it was intended. This is done
entirely at the user’s own risk.
RoHS Information
The battery crimping tool complies with the EU-Guideline 2011/65/EU (RoHS2).
CE
The battery crimping tool is CE compliant.
The original declaration of conformity was supplied together with the operating instructions of the
battery crimping tool in the tool case.
1.3
Understanding the Operating Instruction
The operating instruction contains all information concerning operating elements, operation,
commissioning and maintenance work as well as technical data.
The operating instruction must be constantly within reach of the battery crimping tool. Every tool
operator must read and understand the operating instruction to ensure safe and efficient
production with this piece of equipment.

Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of and responsible for the following
maintenance steps:
1. This tool was engineered for durability, but like any fine
piece of equipment, it needs cleaning and lubrication for a
maximum service life of trouble-free crimping.
2. Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a
clean brush or a soft, lint-free cloth.
3. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the
tool.
4. Make certain all pins, pivot points and bearing surfaces in
the tool head are protected with a thin coat of high-quality
machine oil. Do not oil excessively. Using a light oil such as
SAE 30 weight automotive oil every 5,000 crimps or
monthly will significantly enhance the tool life and ensure a
stable calibration. See Figure 8.2 for lubrication points.
5. Store the tool in a clean and dry area when not in use.
