1. INTRODUCTION
Die Assemblies 45218, 45221, 69303--2 (shown in
Figure 1), and 69820 are used with the following tools
to crimp vinyl closed--end splices and nylon
closed--end splices onto solid and stranded wire sizes
22 through 10 AWG. For specific information
concerning the tools, refer to instruction sheet
(408--series) or customer manual (409--series) listed.
NOTE
i
Dimensions on this instruction sheet are in
millimeters [with inches in brackets]. Figures are
not drawn to scale.
Reasons for reissue of this instruction sheet are
provided in Section 8, REVISION SUMMARY.
2. DESCRIPTION
The die assembly consist of an insert indenter
(moving die) and an insert anvil (stationary die).
The stationary die is identified by the chamfered
corners. The stationary die is marked with the die
assembly part number, wire size (AWG), and splice
type. When mated, the die assembly forms one
crimping chamber. Each die is secured in the tool by
a single screw.
3. DIE INSTALLATION
Install the die assembly onto the tool according to the
instructions supplied with the tool. If using the
pneumatic tooling assembly, follow the instructions
supplied with the applicable crimper or adapter.
4. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
NOTE
i
Die Assembly 69820 requires an insulation crimp
adjustment. Before crimping any splices, refer to
Section 5 for proper adjustment.
1. Select proper wire combinations as stated in the
applicable wire combination chart specified in
Figure 2. Strip wires to length indicated in Figure 2.
Do not use wires with nicked or missing strands.
NOTE
i
If conductors are twisted together to form a tight
bundle before inserting them into the splice, the
strip length must be maintained after twisting.

Read these instructions and referenced documents
before crimping any splices.
2. Insert the splice, wire barrel first, into the ejector
of the stationary die until splice bottoms. For nylon
splices, the shoulder must rest against the ejector;
for vinyl splices, the end of the wire barrel of must
rest against the locator. Die Assembly 69820 does
not have a locator; therefore, the wire barrel must
rest against the wire barrel section of the die. See
Figure 3. Close dies until splice is held in place.
3. Insert stripped wires into splice wire barrel until
conductors bottom. See Figure 3.
DANGER ^{Always keep fingers clear of dies during tool}
operation.
