WARNING:
To prevent serious injury:
•Keep away from all moving parts! If bodily contact should occur with a
moving part, immediately release CRIMP button or foot pedal.
•Do not operate crimper with hand, fingers, or any body part in crimper mouth.
Serious injury can occur.
•Keep additional personnel away from crimper while operating.
G. Remove coupling and measure crimp diameter. Crimp diameter must measure
1.000" +/- .003". If the crimp diameter is acceptable, no adjustment is
necessary.
•If crimp diameter is not acceptable, crimper must be calibrated. Proceed
as follows:
a. Press OPTIONS then TOOLS on the TOUCH SCREEN control panel.
Press OFFSET. Then press Open Keypad. Type in 4296 and press ENTER.
b. Use Calibration equation to determine approximate new setting.
Adjusted Setting = Factory Offset Value- [ (Actual COD - Target COD) x 2200]
Changing the Offset Value by approximately 2 will change crimp diameter
0.001”. Changing the Offset Value by approximately 50 will change crimp
diameter approximately 0.025”.
c. Type in the Adjusted Setting and press ENTER.
NOTE- If the ENTER key is not pressed, the new offset value will not be loaded!
H. Repeat calibration steps until published crimp diameter is achieved. Crimper is
now calibrated.
2- Calibration with the GC96-610 die and the GC96 Calibration Piece
A. Install the GC96-610 die set using the die removal tool (Prod. No 7482-9181).
B. Set the Set Point Value to 8.56.
C. While holding the end of the GC96 Calibration Piece (Prod. No. 7482-9200),
insert the piece into crimper.
D. Press and hold top blue CRIMP button. Crimper will close down to position
defined by the Set Point Value. Once it reaches that position, crimper will
automatically shut off.
NOTE: CRIMP button and foot pedal operate on a “dead man” control. It only
operates as long as you depress the CRIMP button or hold foot pedal down. It stops
immediately when switch is released.
