• Make sure the insertion depth of the fittings, mark a line around the surface of hoses, then mount the fittings to the hoses until the ferrule aligned with the mark.

• Check the crimping range of the crimper you use, select the suitable crimper die, you could follow the reference sheet from the machine.

• Turn on the machine, adjust the vernier dial to the size you need, hold the hose into the machine, the crimping pross only need few seconds.

• Don't forget to measure the diameter of the hose after crimping.
