16, 20 and 25mm. Only Auspex approved tools can be

used.

The adjusting screw has 4 flat faces in a square shape

for the locking bolt to fix on. Therefore the adjusting

screw must always be vertical or horizontal in orientation

and never at an angle or the locking bolt will damage it

Retighten the locking bolt

Crimp a new trial joint as a test away from the working

location and test with the gauge

If OK, continue to use the tool

If the gauge fails, repeat adjustment until trial crimped joint is

correct. More detailed instructions are included with the tool.

Pinched Ring

When crimping Auspex fittings, care should be taking to

ensure the tooling is positioned correctly so to not pinch the

crimp ring. Fittings that are damaged in this manner should

be replaced.
