9. Carefully close the tool handles, making sure
that the anvils and crimpers align properly.
Continue closing the tool handles until the ratchet
engages sufficiently to hold the anvils and crimpers
in place, then tighten both die retaining screws.
10. Remove the screw that secures the pin contact
support onto the locator assembly. With the pin
socket support against the locator assembly,
position the socket contact support against the pin
socket support. Re–insert the screw, and thread
the screw just enough the hold the contact
supports in place while still allowing them to slide
up and down.
11. Place the hole of the locator assembly over the
end of the long screw and against the side of the
tool jaw, then place the lock nut onto the end of the
long screw. Tighten the lock nut just enough to hold
the locator assembly in place while still allowing the
locator to slide up and down.
12. Adjust each contact support until they meet the
dimensions given in Figure 3. Tighten the screw,
and close the tool handles until the ratchet
releases.
13. To disassemble, close the tool handles until the
ratchet releases, remove the lock nut, the locator
assembly (with contact supports), and the two die
retaining pins, then slide the dies out of the tool
jaws.
4. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
NOTE
i
This tool is provided with a crimp adjustment
feature. Initially, the crimp height of a sample
contact should be verified in accordance with
Section 5.
Refer to Figure 1, and select wire of the specified size
and insulation diameter. Strip the wire to the length
indicated in Figure 1, taking care not to nick or cut
wire strands.
Refer to Figure 4, and proceed as follows:
1. Hold the tool so that the back (wire side) is
facing you. Squeeze tool handles together and
allow them to open fully.
2. Holding the contact by the mating end, insert the
contact — insulation barrel first — into the front of
the anvil. Make sure that the insulation barrel and
wire barrel sit on the nest of the anvils and the
open part of the wire barrel faces the top of the
tool.
CAUTION
!
Make sure that both sides of the insulation barrel
are started evenly into the anvil. DO NOT attempt
to crimp an improperly positioned contact.

3. Position the contact so that the locator drops
into the wire stop slot of the contact. Make sure
that the front of the wire barrel butts against the
locator.
4. Hold the contact in position, and squeeze the
tool handles together until ratchet engages
sufficiently to hold the contact. DO NOT deform the
insulation barrel or wire barrel.
5. Insert the stripped wire into the insulation barrel
and wire barrel until it butts against the locator.
6. Holding the wire in place, squeeze the tool
handles together until the ratchet releases. Allow
the tool handles to open, and remove the crimped
contact.

If the crimped contact sticks in the crimping
chamber, remove the contact by pushing
downward on the top of the locator.
7. Inspect the contact crimp height according to
Section 5.
