I have the same crimpers. The stripe pattern on the
terminal barrel indicates how many crimps to make. I
suspect the dies that Spehro is describing make the
required number of crimps in one shot.

Yes, one shot.
BTW, here's an interesting product that might help-- I have not seen

The hammer type crimper is on that page as well. I'm not fond of
them myself at least when used with a hammer. You never know when
you've got enough crimp or to much. I'm sure they'd work ok in a
press.

I made one that works great in my treadle hammer (60 pound hammer).
