3 — The contact beams are NOT deformed. If
damage is apparent, replace the contacts in
accordance with the instructions packaged with the
connector.
4 — The wire insulation is NOT nicked or cut in
any area other than the two contact slots.
5 — The wire extends past the wire retainer (strain
relief) of the connector.
5. TERMINATING PROCEDURE
5.1. Discrete Wire and Jacketed Cable
1. There is no preparation required for discrete
wire. Prepare jacketed cable according to Figure 5.
2. Insert the connector into the left side of the
head. Refer to Figure 6.
4. WIRE INSERTION DEPTH ADJUSTMENT (See Figure 4)
1. Remove the head from the handle assembly.
Jacketed Cable Preparation
2. If the wire is inserted too deeply (more than the
required wire insertion depth), reduce the wire
insertion depth by turning the adjuster ¹/₆ of a
revolution clockwise. The wire insertion depth will
be reduced by approximately 0.20 mm [.008 in.].

CAUTION
!
If the wire is bottomed in the contact slot, this
indicates that the adjuster is set to the maximum
wire insertion depth Ċ DO NOT turn the adjuster
counterclockwise; otherwise damage to the head
may occur.
If the wire is not inserted deeply enough (less than
the required wire insertion depth), increase the wire
insertion depth by turning the adjuster ¹/₆ of a
revolution counterclockwise. The wire insertion
depth will be increased by approximately 0.20 mm
[.008 in.].

CAUTION
!
When turning the adjuster counterclockwise,
make sure to check the wire insertion depth after
EACH ¹/₆ revolution. If the adjuster is set past the
maximum setting, damage to the head may
occur.

3. Align the contact to be terminated with the wire
inserter of the head (shown in Figure 1). Make sure
that the locating pawl rests between the connector
index ribs.
4. Insert the unstripped wire into the funnel area
between the contact and the wire inserter until it
bottoms on the tool base. See Figure 6.
5. Squeeze the cam handle (manual) or depress
the trigger (pneumatic) of the handle assembly,
and hold it until the ratchet releases (manual) or
the wire inserter bottoms (pneumatic).
