Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure the work area is clean to prevent debris from entering the AC system. Verify that you have selected the correct die size to match your hose diameter. To maintain the device, keep the hydraulic cylinder clean and store it in the provided case after every use to prevent dust accumulation. Regularly inspect the dies for wear or damage to ensure uniform crimping. The tool is designed specifically for AC hoses; attempting to use it on thicker high-pressure hydraulic lines may damage the dies or the internal pump mechanism.
