• increases tool life
• ensures the quality work done
• minimises the risk accidents
Safety rules
Below are some simple and common
rules that Elpress recommend all
operators follow:
• Before starting work with crimp tool,
a thorough visual inspection should be
carried out.The
hose made for particularly high pressure
and cannot replaced another type. Therefore,
never stand front tool the
direction crimping force. Safety requires that instructions
and directions are available and followed
closely. The tools are
not designed for “Live working”. These instructions
should read carefully before use, the
best interests the operator.2

• The tools must serviced and calibra-
ted regular intervals.
• All operators must wear personal pro-
tective equipment such A51 gloves,
goggles and safety shoes. max mm

• the measurement result exceeds
the ”N”dimension (according the table
that follows) after correct contact crim-
ping, contact the Elpress service centre.
• there suspicion failure a
crimp system, always contact the
Elpress Service Centre.
• Measure with calipers and compare
with the table’s ”N”dimensions.2

• Hydraulic pressure must not applied to
