sure the core crimp tails are facing the forming jaws.
3. Gently apply pressure to handles of tool until crimpers just
secure the core crimp tails.

ition wire so that short pair of crimp tails squeeze bare
wire strands, while long pair squeeze over the insulation.

matically opens when the crimping sequence is complete.

the ratchet trigger (2).
