5.4 Setting the stripping length (L models)
You can adjust the length of the insertion path of the fer-
rules for the Crimpfix L models.
► Pull the tool unit forwards.
Figure 5.7 Release device adjustment (set: 0)
► Turn the adjusting wheel so that the desired configura-
tion can be seen on the right:
0 Standard
+ Insertion path extended
- Insertion path shortened
-- Insertion path considerably shortened
► Bring the tool unit back into the operating position.
5.5 Performing a stripping test
Each time the material to be processed has been changed,
a stripping test must be conducted.
► Switch on the mains switch.
► Switch to "Stripping mode" operating mode on the touch
display (see section 6.6).
► Insert a wire for stripping.
► Check the result: Is all the stranded wire undamaged?
Has stripping been performed straight and evenly?
► Use an uncrimped wire-end ferrule to check whether the
stripping length fits and whether the selected combina-
tion of wire and ferrule are a perfect match. Switch to
S-ferrules if required.

5.6 Setting the cutting depth
Depending on hardness and thickness, adjusting the cut-
ting depth for the stripping may be required. To do this, the
blade distance must be modified by shifting the two eccen-
trics.
► To get to both eccentrics, press the tool unit backwards
and swing it to the right.

Figure 5.8 Stripping unit
► Release both eccentrics screws (1) and (2)
(2.5 mm Allen key).
► To reduce the cutting depth, move both eccentrics
towards "+" (larger blade spacing).
► To increase the cutting depth, move both eccentrics
towards "–" (shorter blade spacing).
► Re-apply both eccentrics screws.
The configuration of both eccentrics must match
one another.
