The Greenlee HK06FT comes with a steel carrying case, a test gauge, and test slugs. This crimping tool uses four indentors for crimping. Its two - speed pump quickly moves the ram to start the crimp, cutting down on crimp time. After the crimp is done, the ram retracts automatically. It's UL and cUL classified for #4AWG - 750 kcmil (MCM) copper and #6AWG - 750 kcmil (MCM) aluminum color - coded connectors from top brands like Anderson, Blackburn, FCI Burndy, ILSCO, Panduit, Penn - Union, and Thomas & Betts. The flip - top design allows easy removal from the connector with a pull pin. It's compact and has a 360° rotating head. Measuring 21 - 1/16' (535 mm) in length and weighing 9.0 lbs. (4.1 kg), it's a great tool for various applications.
Using the Greenlee HK06FT is easy. First, make sure you have the right color - coded connector for your wire size. Place the connector and wire in the tool's head. The two - speed pump will quickly move the ram to start the crimp. Just wait for the crimp to finish and the ram will retract on its own. To remove the tool from the connector, use the pull pin on the flip - top head. When it comes to maintenance, keep the tool clean and dry. After use, put it back in the steel carrying case. If you're not sure about a particular connector, refer to the UL and cUL classification list. Always follow safety guidelines when using this tool. Also, check the test gauge and test slugs regularly to ensure accurate crimping.
