Parkrimp Assembly Instructions
Turn on the pump by pressing the “ON” switch.
Pull the valve handle forward to bring the pusher
down for crimping. When the split die ring con-
tacts the base plate, the crimp is complete. Push
the valve handle back to lift the pusher, open the
dies, and release the finished assembly.
Note:
You do not have to remove any tooling to
insert or remove straight fittings. The front half of
the split die ring and the front die train must be
removed to insert and remove bent tube fittings.
With the pusher in the
full up position, lift the
back half of the split die
ring. Lock it in the up
position by pushing the
slide pin in. (The slide
pin is located inside the
pusher at the back.)
Lubricate die bowl using a
premium quality lithium-
base grease. Carefully
insert the adapter bowl,
83C-OCB, into the base
bowl. The adapter bowl
must be tilted toward the
back of the crimper during
insertion.
