12. Replace the ram assembly in the applicator
and re–install the applicator in the terminating
machine.
13. Slowly hand–cycle the terminating machine
several times to make sure there is no binding or
tooling interference.
Inspect the spring for damage and replace if
necessary.
6. Remove the wire and insulation crimp disks
from the ram post.
7. Remove the “snap–fitted” pins from the wire disk
by pushing them from the top. See Figure 7. The
chamfers on the pins and in the holes of the plastic
carrier insure that they can move in only one
direction. Remove pins that you need to replace,
being careful to note the position of the A, B, C, or
D legend molded into the plastic outer edge.

crimp height of the finished terminal. If necessary,
correct any problem.

When storing applicator, or taking it out of
machine for any reason, use the following
procedure to keep tooling from being damaged
by bottoming of ram assembly.
1. Cut terminal strip one or two terminals from end
