5. Loosen the set screw in the ram.
6. Insert the shank of the moving die into the ram
and tighten the set screw.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the dies, be sure that the
moving and stationary dies are properly oriented.
7. Activate the tool to allow the ram to return to the
“down” position.
8. Pivot the yoke and latch arm toward each other
until the locking flange secures the latch arm to the
yoke.
CAUTION
Always make sure the yoke and latching arm are
secured by the locking flange before cycling the
tool.
3.2. Die Removal
1. Pivot the latch arm away from the yoke to open
the head.
2. Loosen the set screw in the yoke and remove
the stationary die.
3. Extend the ram until the ram set screw is visible.
4. Loosen the set screw in the ram. Remove the
moving die.
4. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
4.1. Crimping Terminals
DANGER
Avoid personal injury. When operating the tool,
exercise caution while holding terminals or wire
near the crimping area.
1. Strip wire to the dimensions listed in Figure 2.
Do not nick or cut the wire strands.
2. Select the proper color--coded terminal for the
wire size. The wire size stamped on the terminal
tongue and on the crimping die must match the
wire size selected.
3. Insert stripped wire fully into terminal wire barrel.
The end of the conductor must not protrude more
than 1.60 mm [.063 in.] beyond the edge of the
wire barrel.
NOTE
Do NOT turn or twist the wire or terminal during
insertion.
4. Pivot the latch arm away from the yoke to open
the head.
5. Place the terminal in the stationary die with the
edge of the wire barrel resting against the locator
and the bottom of the terminal tongue facing the
stationary die. See Figure 3.
6. Holding the terminal in place, pivot the yoke and
latch arm toward each other until the locking flange
secures the latch arm to the yoke.
CAUTION
Always make sure the yoke and latching arm are
secured by the locking flange before cycling the
tool.
7. Holding the wire in place, activate the tool to
complete the crimp.
8. When the crimp is completed, pivot the latch
arm away from the yoke to open the head and
remove the terminal.
NOTE
If terminal sticks in die after crimping, apply a
rocking action to the terminal to remove it from
the die. Wipe light oil on the dies to prevent
sticking, or use spray dry lubricant.
9. Inspect the crimp according to Section 5.
