CAUTION

!

Ensure the latch pin is fully inserted or damage

may occur to the yoke, dies, or latch pin.

3.2. Die Removal

1. Remove latch pin and open yoke.

2. Insert blade of screwdriver under nest and pry

nest out of yoke.

3. Raise ram to full up position.

4. Insert blade of screwdriver under nest and pry

indenter out of ram.

4. WIRE STRIPPING AND CRIMPING PROCEDURE

4.1. Wire Stripping

Strip wire to dimensions listed in Figure 3. Do NOT

nick or cut wire strands.

DANGER

STOP

AVOID PERSONAL INJURY. When operating

power unit, exercise caution while holding

terminals, splices, or wire near crimping area.

4.2. Crimping Procedure

1. Ensure the wire range or size stamped on the

terminal or splice corresponds with the size being

used with the wire size or range stamped on the

nest and indenter.

2. Center terminal or splice in nest as shown in

Figure 4. For best results, when brazed seam on

terminal or splice is visible, position seam toward

indenter.

3. Activate power unit so that ram advances and

holds terminal or splice in place. Do NOT deform

terminal or splice wire barrel.

4. Insert stripped wire into terminal or parallel splice

until end of conductor is flush with or extended

slightly beyond end of wire barrel.

5. Insert stripped wire into butt splice until end of

conductor butts against splice wire stop.

6. Activate power unit to complete the crimp.

NOTE

i

If the terminal sticks in the die after crimping, grasp

the wire close to the crimp and apply a rocking

motion to remove the die.

7. For butt splice, repeat steps 5 and 6 for other wire

barrel.

8. Refer to Paragraph 5.1, Crimp Inspection, for

standard terminal, butt and parallel splice crimp

inspection procedure.
