Description

The Greenlee RK1550 15-ton, single-acting, die-type

crimping tool is intended to crimp splicing sleeves

and termination lugs using Kearney PH14 dies

it to be used with Thomas & Betts 15-ton dies,

Burndy 15-ton dies, Kearney 12-ton dies, and industry

12-ton U-style dies.

This crimping tool requires an external 700 bar

(10,000 psi) hydraulic power source, such as Greenlee

975, 976-22, 980 and 980-22. It may also be powered

using a hydraulic intensier capable of develop-

ing 700 bar (10,000 psi), such as the Greenlee Utility

Dynapress®.

Optional accessories include the following hoses with

one male and one female coupler:

• 90558509 3 m (10') Conductive Hydraulic Hose

• 90558517 3 m (10') Non-Conductive

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Electrical shock hazard:

This tool is not insulated. When using

this unit near energized electrical

lines, use only certied non-con-

ductive hoses and proper personal

protective equipment.

Failure to observe this warning could

result in severe injury or death.

Skin injection hazard:

• Do not use ngers or hands to

check for leaks.

• Depressurize hydraulic system

before servicing.

High pressure oil easily punctures

skin causing serious injury, gangrene

or death. If injured seek medical help

immediately to remove oil.

Wear eye protection when using this

tool.

Failure to wear eye protection could

result in serious eye injury from ying

debris or hydraulic oil.

Pinch points:

Keep hands away from closing dies.

Failure to observe this warning could

result in severe injury or death.

Use proper die, connector, and wire combinations.

Mismatched components can result in an incomplete

crimp. Failure to complete a crimp could result in

severe injury, death, or re if a connection separates

or if it has high electrical resistance.

Inspect tool and dies before use. Replace any worn or

damaged parts. A damaged or improperly assembled

tool could break and strike nearby personnel with suf-

cient force to cause severe injury or death.

• Do not operate crimping tool without dies in place.

Damage to the ram or crimping tool head may

result.

• Do not perform any service or maintenance other

than as described in this manual. Injury or damage

to the tool may result.

Follow the operating instructions and safety informa-

tion supplied with the hydraulic power source.

Note: Keep all decals clean and legible, and replace

when necessary.
