3.1.4 Checking output pressure
Do NOT use hydraulic brake fluid in this tool. Brake
fluid can damage seals and cause leaks which may
lead to serious personal injury or tool damage.
of use. Heavily used and/or mishandled tools will require more frequent output pressure testing.
Always check the output pressure after the tool has been serviced or refilled with hydraulic fluid.
To check the output pressure of your Y39E1E or Y39E1BHE tool, you will need a force test guage kit.
Note: Use hydraulic fluid recommended by SBI.
3.2 Carrying out a crimping connection with the Y39E1E tool
1. Ensure the dies match the connector being crimped and have been installed correctly (see
chapter before).
2. Place connector and cable in the cavity head.
3. Rotate the reservoir handle clockwise to advance the ram until the die butts against the
connector.
4. Now rotate the reservoir handle counter-clockwise 1 to 1½ turns. This will set the ram retraction
position and allow the tool to slide along the connector when multiple crimps are to be made.
5. Align the dies between the crimp lines on the connector, if present.
6. Pump the handle until the overload valve "pops off." There will be an audible noise and greatly
reduced handle force when the tool reaches pressure and the overload valve pops off.
7. Open the handles part way. Pull the release trigger (located on the handle) to position the
release bar. While holding the release trigger, close the handles to allow the release bar to
depress the release valve. The ram will retract to the position set in step 4.
WARNING
Displace the upper die until reaches the UADP1
adapter in order to install it correctly.
Finally, the dies are correctly installed to the Y39E1E
head.
3.1.3 Die removal
Unblock dies with the button die and displace outside.
CAUTION: It is important to periodically
verify that the output pressure of your tool is
within SBI's recommendation. A tool not
reaching minimum output pressure may result
in unsatisfactory crimp connections.
The frequency of checking the output pressure
of your Tool is dependent upon the frequency
