I've also found that if a QD is too light, use a small flat head screwdriver to loosen it. If it's too loose, use a small pliers to tighten in. |

Best crimper I've ever used. --- End quote --- Not certain, but they are probably going to be very expensive compared to the alternatives below. Nephasth recommended http://www.pimfg.com/ as a great source for affordable ratcheting crimpers and I second that. The jaws on page 74 of the catalog PDF work with the HT-336 frame or the Harbor Freight crimpers that MGB and I linked above. The Harbor Freight crimpers are slightly lower quality than the HT-336 -- check the HF crimpers before you buy them to ensure they are working properly. (The first pair I checked weren't functioning/adjusted properly.) These P/Ns are the ones I ended up getting.
