Detail on crimping pins for ATX Connector
- Holding the tool in your right hand, insert the pin into the larger opening.
- Pin should protrude from the right side of the tool.
- Hold pin in place with the first ratchet click of the tool.
- Insert the wire into the pin, ensuring the insulation of the wire is in the rearmost part of the pin (it's important not to bare the wire insulation back too much, about 4mm is about right)
- Crimp right down
