2. Insert platform adapter into tool holder as shown

in Figure 1.

3. After platform adapter is properly aligned, insert

and tighten quick pins provided with the tool holder

assembly (refer to Figure 1).

We recommend using LOCTITE{ 242 removable

threadlock, or equivalent, to prevent the quick

pins from loosening..

4. Connect pneumatic tool to an adequate air

supply between 620 and 690 kPa [90 and100 psi].

For specific information on air line requirements

and air hose installation, refer to the instructions

packaged with the pneumatic tooling assembly.

B. Removal

To avoid personal injury, ALWAYS disconnect tool

from air supply before removing platform adapter.

Remove quick pins from platform adapter; then

remove platform adapter from tool holder.

Strip the wire to the appropriate length according to

Application Specification 114--2123. Proceed as

follows:

Do NOT operate the tool without the platform

adapter or die assembly properly installed.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the tool,

always keep fingers clear of jaws, and frequently

check the quick pins to ensure that they are

secure.

1. The locator stop must be adjusted to

accommodate the terminal series size, which is

marked on the terminal insulation (.110, .187,

or .250). Rotate the blue plastic locator stop until

the series size matches the terminal series size.

If crimping a flag terminal, the locator stop does

NOT need to be adjusted.

2. Open the dies by squeezing the adapter rollers

together.

3. Center the terminal wire barrel in the appropriate

crimping chamber on the lower die.

a. For straight terminals, insert mating end into

crimping chamber with the flat side facing the

locator assembly (for Adapter --1) as shown in

Figure 4, or the upper die (for Adapter --2). Allow

terminal to butt against the locator stop.

b. For flag terminals, orient the terminal as

shown in Figure 4. The mating end must be

seated on the locator assembly (for Adapter --1),

or the upper die (for Adapter --2).

4. After terminal is properly positioned, release the

adapter rollers to allow the dies to spring shut,

holding the terminal in place.

5. Insert stripped wire into wire barrel until the wire

bottoms.
