“Tool Calibration for 1” MIL3 Crimp Maker Tool”All crimp tools wear, which increases the crimp diameter after many crimps . When your crimp start to approach the maximum ring diameter, then adjust to hex pin in the moving jaw.

HOW TO MAKE CRIMP CONNECTIONSPlease read the instructions thoroughly before beginning.• STEP 1 Squarely cut tubing with the pipe cutter. Burrs, jagged or irregular cuts may result in an improper connection.• STEP 2 Slide the correct sized copper crimp ring over the PEX tubing.• STEP 3 Insert the fitting into the tubing up to the fitting shoulder.• STEP 4 Using a calibrated crimp tool for the correct size, centre the crimping tool jaws over the ring. HOLD THE TOOL AT 90º to the the fitting and close the jaws completely. Crimp only one time. If crimped more than once, you must cut out the connection and begin at Step 1.
CHECK EVERY CRIMP! Each crimp connection should be checked with a 'Go / No Go' gauge to ensure proper installation. When checking the crimp with the 'Go / No Go' gauge, make sure to push straight down on the crimp ring. A proper crimp has been established if the'Go' side of the gauge fits over and can rotate around the circumference of the crimp ring.'GO' / 'NO GO' GAUGE Normal wear and tear can effect gauge accuracy so periodically check gauge with a measuring device or change to a new gauge regularly to ensure accuracy.An improper crimp is when (1) the 'Go' side does not fit over the ring -OR- (2) the 'No Go' side doesfit over the crimp ring.
