2. DESCRIPTION
Main components of the crimping head are: a yoke
which houses the stationary die and retains the
terminal assembly for crimping, a removable latch pin
which allows pivoting of the yoke on the pivot pin
(typically required for splice terminations), a cylinder
which contains the head’s hydraulic chamber, a piston
(ram) which holds and controls the moving die, and a
quick connect/disconnect coupler which mates with
the coupler on the hose to release or supply pressure.

1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet provides application, inspection,
and maintenance procedures for Crimping Head
1752877--1. (see Figure 1). This crimping head uses
interchangeable crimping dies and is used to crimp
products listed in Figure 2. The instructions include
general information for the insertion of dies and the
crimping procedure. Refer to instructions packaged
with specific die sets for compatible products, wire
ranges, strip dimensions, and application procedures.
NOTE
i
Dimensions on this sheet are in millimeters [with
inches in brackets]. Figures and illustrations are
for reference only and are not drawn to scale.
DANGER
To avoid injury when using hydraulic crimping
equipment, observe the following precautions:
- Do NOT modify the crimping equipment in any
way.
- Use only dies, terminals, and wire specified for
the head.
- Do NOT perform repairs other than those
specified in the instructional material supplied
with the equipment.
3. CRIMPING HEAD INSTALLATION
Each crimping head is shipped with a coating of
lubricating oil to prevent rust and corrosion. Wipe the
oil off before installing the crimping head on the power
unit. Note that the crimping head is shipped without
oil inside the cylinder. To install crimping head,
proceed as follows:
DANGER
Make sure that hydraulic pressure to the hose is
released and that power supply is disconnected
to electric power unit, if applicable.
1. Remove protective dust caps from both quick
connect/disconnect couplers.
2. Thoroughly clean coupling area of hose
assembly and crimping head. See Figure 1.
