ABSTRACT:
A portable, self-contained collet crimping apparatus includes a base having a hand-actuated hydraulic pump assembly mounted thereon is disclosed. A collet crimping machine is pivotably mounted on the base so as to be adjustably oriented at any desired angle. Means are provided for selectively retaining the collet crimping machine in a desired rotational position relative to the base. The hydraulic pump assembly is connected to actuate the collet crimping machine. The collet crimping machine further includes a pusher which secured to the machine to prevent loss, yet which is slidable between extended and retracted positions. In the extended position, the pusher is disposed outwardly away from the collet crimping machine to permit easy replacement of a die assembly. In the retracted position, the pusher is disposed within the collet crimping machine and precisely aligned with the other components thereof for use. A handle may be secured to the pusher to provide a convenient grasping location for an operator to effect sliding movement thereof. Means are provided for positively retaining the pusher in the retracted position for use.
