The bullet is inserted into the round hole in the crimper and the sliders line up un the groove right behind the bullet end. As you squeeze the handles the siders move in and crimp the connecter to the wire. I always solder the wire end with small diameter solder and trim the end with a sharp cutter.

Those crimpers are described to be similar to Daniels Manufacturing crimpers. I have several sets of them with different dies & positioners. They are generally a 4-way crimper and have a variety of position tools for different pin sizes & types like are used in Cannon plugs for aircraft & military equipment. Thes types are getting to be very expensive now days.
