NOTE
If splice sticks in die after crimping, apply a
rocking action to the splice to remove it from the
die. Wipe light oil on dies to reduce sticking, or
use spray dry lubricant.
9. To crimp the other half of splice, reposition
uncrimped end of splice in the stationary die and
follow the same procedure used to crimp the first
half of splice.
10. Inspect the crimp according to Section 5.

DANGER
Avoid personal injury. When operating the tool,
exercise caution while holding splice or wire near
the crimping area.
1. Strip wires to the dimensions listed in Figure 2.
Do not nick or cut the wire strands.
2. Select the proper color--coded splice for the wire
size. The wire size stamped on the splice and on
the crimping die must match the wire size selected.
3. Insert the stripped wire into the wire barrel of the
end of the splice to be crimped until the wire
bottoms against the wire stop within the splice.
4. Pivot the latch arm away from the yoke to open
the head.
5. Place the splice in the stationary die. Grasp the
end of the splice to be crimped and point the
opposite end toward the top of the head yoke at
approximately a 30_ angle. Rotate the end of the
splice to be crimped into the die. Position the edge
of the window indent against the locator. Refer to
Figure 4.
6. Holding the splice 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 wire in place, activate the tool to
complete first wire barrel crimp.
8. When crimp is completed, pivot the latch arm
away from the yoke to open the head and remove
the splice.

4.3. Crimping Splices With Step- Down Adapter
DANGER
Avoid personal injury. When operating the tool,
exercise caution while holding splice or wire near
the crimping area.
1. Strip wires to the dimensions listed in Figure 2.
Do not nick or cut the wire strands.
2. Select the proper splice, adapter, and crimping
die for the wire size. See Figure 5. Note that the
end of the splice containing the adapter has a
different color code. Use the crimping die for the
larger wire size to crimp both ends of the splice.
For example, use Crimping Die 1901006--1 (for
wire size 8 AWG) to crimp both ends of the splice
with step--down adapter for stepping down from
wire size 8 to 16--14 AWG.
