Place hose into hose crimper, centering the
ferrule on the proper die.
6)

BRASS CRIMPER TOOL
Before operating the 855, 855A or 860 Crimper, close the machine and adjust the
screw opposite the end where the handle attaches until the screw just touches the
end stop. Never turn the screw tighter than this. The screw should be looser if
the hose barb fits very tightly and the ferrule ID is close to the hose OD.
