6. To crimp other half of splice, rotate the
splice/tool 180_, making sure the stripe marking on
splice is inside the assembly, facing up, and in
alignment with dot on nest. See Figure 6. Follow
the same procedure used to crimp first side of
splice (Steps 1 through 5).
4. CRIMP INSPECTION MARK
A crimp inspection mark is featured on each crimped
terminal or splice. The mark consists of a dimple on
the face of a cylinder which is embossed in the
primary crimp area of the terminal or splice. The
inspection mark must appear as shown in the artwork
presented in Section 3.5 of Application Specification
114–2134.
The inspection mark must appear as indicated in
Application Specification 114–2134, in order to qualify
Wire
the terminal or splice as an acceptable termination.
The terminal or splice is unacceptable and should be
rejected if the identification mark is deformed.
If the mark is deformed, refer to Figure 3 of this
View
instruction sheet to verify proper wire CMA and
terminal/die combination.

CAUTION
!
Do NOT turn or twist the wire/splice during
insertion.
NOTE
i
When using splices with a color coded band
around end of splice, use correct copper
conductors in the color coded end.
4. Holding wire in place, activate power unit again
to complete crimp.
5. When crimp is completed, remove the splice.
Verify that crimping dies fully bottom during crimp
cycle. Also, determine if dies are in proper
configuration by gaging the crimp chamber specified
in Paragraph 5.2.B.
5. MAINTENANCE/INSPECTION
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, always disconnect
electrical and/or air supply to power unit before
performing, adjustments, inspections, and
repairs.
These instructions have been approved by Tyco
Electronics Design, Production, and Quality Control
Engineers to provide documented maintenance and
inspection procedures. Through Tyco Electronics test
laboratories and the inspection of production
assembly, the procedures described herein have
been established to ensure the quality and reliability
of crimping die assemblies.
Customer–replaceable parts are listed in Figure 7. A
complete inventory should be stocked and controlled
to prevent lost time when replacement of parts is
necessary.
NOTE
i
If splice sticks in die after crimping, apply a
rocking action to remove it from the die. Wipe
light oil on dies to reduce sticking, or use spray
dry lubricant.
Die assemblies are inspected before shipment. It is
recommended that the die assembly be inspected
immediately upon arrival at your facility to ensure that
it has not been damaged during shipment.
