Section 4

e. Install the proper pusher over the adapter

(reference the chart at the end of this section
for proper pusher selection).

Bring the assembly down into the opening
of the die.

g. Jog the ram cylinder down until it meets the

pusher. Make sure that the cylinder plate
contacts the pusher flush.

h. Holding the hose and coupling up against the

pusher hold the “on” button down (or depress
the foot pedal) until the ferrule enters the
opening of the die. Once the ferrule has entered
the die and started to be reduced (approximately
1/3 of the way) it will no longer need the
operator to keep it seated into the pusher.
Continue the swage process until the pusher
meets the die face. Release the “on” button
(or foot pedal).

i. Lift the hose assembly up and remove the

pusher, and die halves from the die bed.

Note: If the gauge reads 10,000 PSI before swaging is
complete, stop. The ferrule or die used for that hose end
may be incorrect. Contact Dixon for further assistance.
