5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE
The die assembly is inspected prior to shipment,
however, Tyco Electronics recommends that the die
assembly be inspected immediately upon arrival.
Tyco Electronics recommends that a maintenance
and inspection program be performed periodically to
ensure continued reliability of the die assembly. The
inspection frequency should be based on the amount
of use, working conditions, operator training and skill,
and established company standards.
