How is a KT Terminal Crimping Tool Used?
Crimping Tools have two notches one at the farthest from the tip and is used to squeeze the crimp into a figure 8 shape while the second station is closest to the tip of the pliers and is used to fold the crimp into a nice tube shape.
Slide the Terminal onto one end of the cable. (Strip the end of the cable prior to this step to ensure the terminal is connecting directly with the cable stranding and not the sheath or insulation)
Place the Cable End with the Terminal applied, through the Crimping Tools Teeth (Using the appropriate setting for your terminal)
Squeeze the Crimping Tool Handles together until it clicks, repeat again until it clicks a second time.
Remove the Tool and inspect your crimp to ensure the terminal is directly in contact with the cable stranding.
