POST02_TOOL05 Cable crimp tool. Used to crimp either ferrules or other items onto the en ds of cables. Interchangeable jaws, the pins allow you to easily ID which j aws are where. In particular, PIDG crimpers made by AMP for red insulated crimp terminals covering 22 Ga through 16 Ga stranded wire. The red colored handle tip sh ows that. The second color (yellow) is for a double-layer insulation versi on of the next size down (26-24 Ga). The older ones were marked 22-16 Ga, but are better restricted to 22-18 Ga, and moving to the blue insulated ter minals for 16-14 Ga, and to the crimper with blue and green handle tips. Th is one is missing the terminal orientation holder, which mounted via the sc rew hole in one of the jaws. The pins and holes are to adjust how thick a wire insulation is crimped by the extended plastic insulation sleeve -- if the terminals are from AMP, t hey will have a metal liner which is folded back at the entry to offer bett er pull-out resistance for the insulation grip. (P.I.D.G. stands for "Pre I nsulated Diamond Grip", the "diamond" being the shape of the insulation cri mp. And on these particular crimpers, one pin is in hole 1, while the othe r is in hole 3. They should both be in the same numbered hole.)
