8. When crimp is completed, remove latch pin, open yoke, and remove the butt splice.
NOTE
If butt splice sticks in die after crimping, apply a rocking action to the butt 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 butt splice, reposition un-crimped end of splice in the stationary die and
follow the same procedure used to crimp the first half of splice.
NOTE
Be sure to re-assemble locator onto stationary die after crimping PLASTI-GRIP butt splices.
10. Inspect the crimp according to Section 5.
5. CRIMP INSPECTION
Inspect crimped terminals and splices by checking the features described in Figure 9. Use only the terminals
and splices that meet the conditions shown in the “ACCEPT” column.
6. MAINTENANCE / INSPECTION
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, ALWAYS release hydraulic pressure to hose or control and disconnect power unit from power supply
before performing maintenance or inspection procedure.
Each crimping die is thoroughly inspected before packaging. Since there is a possibility of damage during
shipment, the crimping die should be inspected immediately upon arrival at your facility.
Regular inspections should be performed by quality control personnel. A record of scheduled inspections
should remain with the dies and/or be supplied to supervisory personnel responsible for the dies. Though
recommendations call for at least one inspection a month, the inspection frequency should be based on the
amount of use, ambient working conditions, operator training and skill, and established company standards.
CAUTION
Regular inspections should include checking torque setting of (4) screws in accordance with Figure 8.
