Steve,
I want to get a similar tool. Is there markings on the die that show the size and are they in mm or AWG? I ntice some dies have AWG markings and some in millimeter.

I use these JST XH connectors in my projects. You need the proper crimping tool to do it right. The choice of crimping tool and the correct position for your wire gauge is vital.
A lot of the Chinese crimping tools do a poor job of crimping these connectors, I had to buy another tool after the first one with blue colored handle grips made very unreliable crimps. The second tool I purchased YEFYM model SN-2549S (red and blue with a silver colored crimp die) has been doing a great job.
I attached a picture of the second tool.
