CRIMPER SAFETY GC16XD MINI CRIMPER & PUMP SAFETY & OPERATION MANUAL
WARNING
An incorrect hose assembly can rupture or blow apart in use, resulting in serious injury, death,
or property damage.
REMEMBER: Others depend on you to make correct assemblies.
Hose Assembly Fabrication.
■Component inspection: Before creating an assembly be sure to inspect all components to ensure
they are the correct product, cut correctly, and do not have any visually identifiable defects.
■Couplings (compatibillity): Hose fitting components from one manufacturer are not usually
compatable with fitting components supplied by another manufactuerer. Never mix and match hose
couplings from different manufacturers unless approved by both parties.
■Hose assembly equipment (crimpers): Hoses and fittings from one manufacturer should not generally
be assembled with the equipment of another manufacturer.
NOTE: Gates recommends only those hose and coupling combinations specified in the Gates Hydraullic
Product catalogs. Gates disclaims any liabillity for any hose assemblies which have not been produced in
conformance with Gates assembly recommendations.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CRIMPER GC16XD MINI CRIMPER & PUMP SAFETY & OPERATION MANUAL
ELECTRONIC DIAL INDICATOR
The Electronic Dial Indicator (EDI) is the device which will notify
the operator when a crimp is completed. It is located on the
top right of the machine with a red LED on the front. The EDI is
adjustable to suit different crimp diameters with different die sets.
The user will be notified that a crimp is nearing completion when
the silver indicator pin is almost flush with the fron of the EDI
knob. At this position, jog (activate in short intervals) the external
power unit until crimped (if power unit function allows). The hose
assembly is crimped when the red LED illuminates on the EDI.
WARNING: Do not hold the machine under pressure for
extended amounts of time on the power unit. As soon as crimp
is complete, release pressure to allow the machine to retract.
If the EDI’s batteries are flat the unit can still be used to identify a
completed crimp. When the silver indicator is flush with the front
face of the knob, the crimp is completed. You may wish to use
your finger to feel when the indicator pin is flush with the front of
the knob. If the hose assembly is over-crimped, the silver indicator
pin will protrude past the knob face.
The operator MUST stop hydraulic flow to the machine before
the indicator reaches the set point position (light on).
The crimp accuracy is dependant on operator reaction and as
such every completed hose assembly MUST be measured.
Battery replacement work instructions included with start-up kit.
POWER UNITS
The optional hydraulic power device MUST be capable of 10,000 PSI,
these can range from a hand pump, through to pneumatic
assisted, or battery operated.
