5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
DANGER
To avoid injury, DISCONNECT TOOL FROM AIR
SUPPLY before performing any maintenance or
inspection procedures.
It is recommended that a maintenance and inspection
program be performed periodically to ensure
dependable and uniform terminations. The tool holder
should be inspected once a week. Frequency of
inspection should be adjusted to suit your
requirements through experience, and depends on:
1. Care, amount of use, and handling of the tool.
2. Type and size of the products crimped.
3. Degree of operator skill.
4. Presence of abnormal amounts of dust and dirt.
5. Your own established standards.
The tool holder is thoroughly inspected before
packaging. Since there is the possibility of damage
during shipment, the tool holder should be inspected
immediately upon arrival at your facility.
5.1. Maintenance
A. Cleaning
Wipe excess grease from tool holder, particularly from
jaw or die closure areas. Grease transferred from the
jaw or die closure area onto certain terminations may
affect the electrical characteristics of an application.
5.2. Periodic Inspection
Regular inspections of the tool should be performed
by quality control personnel. A record of scheduled
inspections should remain with the tool or be supplied
to supervisory personnel responsible for the tool.
Inspection frequency should be based upon amount
of use, working conditions, operator training and skill,
and established company standards.
1. Inspect the tool holder for missing pins or parts.
If parts are missing or defective, replace them by
referring to Section 6.
2. Check all bearing surfaces for wear. Make sure
the rollers on the crimping head turn freely with
minimal resistance. Replace any worn parts.
3. Inspect crimping jaws or dies for flattened,
chipped, or broken areas. Worn or damaged
surfaces are objectionable and will affect the
quality of the crimp.
4. When the tool is not in use, store in a clean, dry
area.
6. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR
Replaceable parts are listed in Figure 4. Parts other
than those listed in Figure 4 should be replaced by
