e. Install the proper pusher over the adapter

(reference the chart at the end of this section

for proper pusher selection).

f. Bring the assembly down into the opening

of the die.

g. Jog the ram cylinder down until it meets the

pusher. Make sure that the cylinder plate

contacts the pusher flush.

h. Holding the hose and coupling up against the

pusher hold the “on” button down (or depress

the foot pedal) until the ferrule enters the

opening of the die. Once the ferrule has entered

the die and started to be reduced (approximately

1/3 of the way) it will no longer need the

operator to keep it seated into the pusher.

Continue the swage process until the pusher

meets the die face. Release the “on” button

(or foot pedal).

i. Lift the hose assembly up and remove the

pusher, and die halves from the die bed.

Note: If the gauge reads 10,000 PSI before swaging is

complete, stop. The ferrule or die used for that hose end

may be incorrect. Contact Dixon for further assistance.
