Abstract
A tool for crimping a connector onto a cable includes a crimping device which is mounted on a forward end of an axially movable piston, and a localizing device for detachably holding a cable and a connector in position for coaction with the crimping device while crimping the connector onto the cable. The piston is journalled in a hollow spindle and is driven reciprocatingly at a pre-determined length of stroke by means of a drive mechanism. The tool further has a distance setting means, including an external screw thread on the spindle and a nut surrounding the spindle and engaging the screw thread thereof, for continuous setting of the distance between the crimping device, when the piston is located in its retracted position, and the localizing device.
