3. INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL OF DIE ASSEMBLY (Figure 2)
1. Open the tool handles and remove the two die retaining screws from the tool jaws.
2. Place the wire anvil and insulation anvil so that their chamfered sides and their marked surfaces face
outward, when mounted in the moving jaw of the tool frame.
3. Insert the two die retaining pins.
4. Insert the short die retaining screw through the jaw and through both anvil dies, and tighten the screw
just enough to hold the dies in place. Do not tighten the screw completely at this time.
5. Place the wire indenter and insulation indenter so that their chamfered sides and their marked
surfaces face outward, when mounted in the stationary jaw of the tool frame.
6. Insert the two die retaining pins.
7. Insert the long die retaining screw through the jaw and through both indenter dies, and tighten the
screw just enough to hold the dies in place. Do not tighten the screw completely at this time.
8. Carefully close the tool handles, making sure that the anvils and indenters align properly. Continue
closing the tool handles until the ratchet in the tool frame has engaged sufficiently to hold the anvils
and indenters in place, then tighten both die retaining screws.
9. To remove, close the tool handles until the ratchet releases, remove the two die retaining screws and
the four die retaining pins, and slide the anvils and indenters out of the tool jaws.
