Troubleshooting Tips
Remember: The electric motor only runs during the crimping process. The motor energizes when the crimp switch is
pressed and de-energizes when the crimp switch is released or when the crimp cycle is completed. While retracting, the
hydraulic dump valve is energized. When the valve is energized, oil flow is directed from the pump to the cylinder. When
the valve is de-energized, oil flows from they cylinder back to the reservoir.
