Work Process Safety; Testing Calibration To 2.0 Mm Using The Gauge - Rennsteig DigiCrimp0,14 – 6,0 mm Bedienungsanleitung

Operating Instructions
Four-indent crimping tool DigiCrimp® with digital display and wear monitoring

6 Work process safety

All crimping tools are subject to mechanical wear that will affect your crimper's lifespan
differently depending on load (cable gauge, materials...)
There is a certain amount of tolerance for this wear, and you can compensate for it by
recalibrating your crimper. Your crimper will reach its wear limit between fifty and two hundred
thousand uses depending on how heavily you use it.
The crimper display (5) will show you when to calibrate or recalibrate your crimper as follows:
· After a battery change (CAL)
Recalibration is essential in order to restore the crimper to working order.
· After your crimper has reached a certain number of crimps (REC)
If the crimper display (5) shows E1 after several recalibration attempts, then the dies in your
crimper are worn to the limit; you will need to have your crimper repaired.

7 Testing calibration to 2.0 mm using the gauge

Check the default setting of your crimper (2 mm crimp) before use.
· Switch on your crimper by pressing the ON/OFF switch (7).
· Set to the default setting (2.0 mm) using the adjustment wheel (8). Make sure that the
gauge measurement is always taken from a larger value, such as from 2.05 mm down
to 2.0 mm.
· Close the crimper and place the 2.0 mm gauge between the dies. Make sure:
· That you can move the gauge between the dies without play. If there is no
deviation in measurement, you can use the crimper immediately.
· If you can move the gauge between the dies with play, or you cannot insert the
gauge into the crimper, you have a deviation in measurement and will need
to recalibrate the crimper.
