- Make sure that the ratchet is released. Squeeze the tool handles together and allow them to open fully. 3. Looking straight into the back of the tool, insert the terminal (insulation barrel first) into the front of the crimp section. See Figure 3. 4. Position the terminal in th e crimping area so that the locator/insulation stop enters the locator slot in the terminal. 5. Hold the terminal in this position and squeeze the too l handles together until the insulation anvil starts entry into the insulation crimper. Do NOT deform the insulation barrel or wire barrel. 6. Insert a properly-stripped wire through the wire slot of the locator and into the wire barrel of the terminal until the wire insulation butts against the locator/insulation stop. 7. While holding the wire in place, squeeze the tool h andles together until the ratchet releases. 8. Allow the tool handles to open fully and remove the crimped terminal.

Daily Maintenance Remove all foreign particles with a clean, soft brush or a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Make sure the proper retaining pins are in place and are secured with the proper retaining rings. If foreign matter cannot be removed easily, or if the proper replacement parts are not available, return the tool to your supervisor. Make sure all pivot points and bearing surfaces are protected with a thin coat of any good SAE† 20 motor oil. Do NOT oil excessively. When the tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged between the jaws, and store the tool in a clean, dry area. 4.2. Periodic Inspection Regular inspection should be performed by quality control personnel. A record of scheduled inspections should remain with the tool and/or be supplied to the supervisory personnel responsible for the tool. 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. These inspections should be performed in the following sequence: A. Visual Inspection 1. Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by immersing the tool (handles partially closed) into a suitable degreaser that will not affect paint or plastic material. 2. Make certain all retaining pins are in place and ar e secured with the proper retaining rings. If replacements are necessary, refer to Figure 5. 3. Close the tool handles until the ratchet releases, an d then allow the handles to open freely. If they do not open quickly and fully, then the spring is defective and must be replaced (see Section 5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR). 4. Inspect the tool, with special emphasis on chec king for worn, cracked, or broken crimping jaws. If damage to any part of the head is evident, return the tool for evaluation and repair (see Section 5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR). B. Crimp Height Inspection Crimp height inspection is performed through the use of a micrometer with a modified anvil, commonly referred to as a crimp height comparator. TE does not market crimp height comparators. Refer to Instruction Sheet 408-7424 for detailed information on obtaining and using a crimp height comparator. Refer to Figure 4.and proceed as follows: 1. Refer to the table in Figure 4 and select a terminal and a wire (maximum size) for the hand tool 2. Refer to Section 3, CRIMPING PROCEDURE, a nd crimp the terminal accordingly. † SAE is a trademark of Society of Automotive Engineers.

Using a crimp height comparator, measure the wire barrel crimp height as shown in Figure 4. If the crimp height conforms to that shown in the chart, the tool is considered dimensionally correct. If not, return the tool for evaluation and repair (refer to Section 5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR). For additional information co ncerning the use of the crimp height comparator, refer to Instruction Sheet 408-7424. C. Ratchet Inspection Obtain a 0.025 [.001] shim that is suitable for checking the clearance between the bottoming surfaces of the crimping jaws. Proceed as follows: 1. Select a terminal and maximum size wire for the ha nd tool. 2. Position the terminal and wire between the crimping jaws , as described in Section 3, CRIMPING PROCEDURE. 3. Holding the wire in place, squeeze the tool ha ndles together until the ratchet releases. Hold the handles in this position, maintaining just enough tension to keep the jaws closed. 4. Check the clearance between the bottoming sur faces of the crimping jaws. If the clearance is 0.025 [.001] or less, the ratchet is satisfactory. If the clearance exceeds 0.025 [.001], the ratchet is out of adjustment and must be repaired. If the tool conforms to these inspection procedures, lubricate it with a thin coat of any good SAE 20 motor oil and return it to service. 5. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR The parts listed in Figure 5 are customer- replaceable. A complete inventory can be stocked and controlled to pr event lost time when replacement of parts is necessary. Order replacement parts through your TE representative, or call 1-800-526-5142, or send a facsimile of your purchase order to 1-717-986-7605, or write to: CUSTOMER SERVICE (038-035) TYCO ELECTRONICS CORPORATION PO BOX 3608 HARRISBURG PA 17105-3608 For customer repair service, call 1-800-526-5136. 6.
