Figure 3 shows a typical tool holder assembly and its associated crimping head being attached to the power
unit. Each tool holder assembly has a unique cam that attaches directly to the piston rod of the power unit.
Once the cam is attached to the piston rod and secured by means of a setscrew, the associated tool holder
assembly is placed over the cam onto the front of the power unit. The locking collar is then threaded onto the
threads on the base of the tool holder assembly, securing the tool holder to the power unit. The associated
crimping head or adapter is then attached to the tool holder assembly. When properly assembled, the power
unit head, with cam and tool holder assembly, should be free to swivel in either direction. This swivel feature
permits the crimping head or adapter to move freely when the operator positions the terminal or splice and wire
into the crimping head or adapter.
2.2. Hand Actuated System (Non- Logic)
DANGER ^{Air pressure must be removed from the unit while head or tool holder is detached.}
The hand actuated system (shown in Figure 4) has a hand switch assembly mounted on the rear of the power
unit. The hand switch assembly contains a manually operated four--way valve with one input port (connects to
main air supply) and two output ports that mate with the input ports of the power unit. The hand switch
assembly, therefore, controls the application of air to either extend or retract the pistons of the power unit.
When the switch lever is pressed inward toward the cylinder body of the power unit, extension occurs. When
released, the spring--loaded switch lever returns to its normal position, causing retraction. As previously
described, any of the tool holder assemblies (with associated crimping head or adapter) can be attached to the
power unit, as shown in Figure 3.
