INTRODUCTION Ribbon Cable Notcher 854449- -[ ] is used to separate individual wires of ribbon cable for application onto the connectors listed Figure 1. Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in millimeters [with inches in brackets]. Figures are not drawn to scale. The ribbon cable notcher is designed to be used with any one of the following power units: — Manual Arbor Frame Assembly 58024- -1 (408- -6923) This frame assembly is not recommended for use on connectors with more than 14 positions. — Pneumatic Applicator Frame Assembly 91112- -2 (408- -7763) — 2700- -lb Pneumatic Power Unit 312522- -1 (409- -5843) with Adapter Kit 854468- -2 (408- -9687) — AMP- -O- -LECTRIC* Model “K” Terminating Machine 2- -565435- -2 or 565435- -5 (409- -5128) with Adapter Kit 854468- -1 (408- -9687) Machine 565435- -5 is no longer available for new applications, but can still be used for existing applications. For operation and adjustment of the power units, refer to the instruction sheet (408- -series) or customer manual (409- -series) included with the power unit.

408- 9515Ribbon Cable Notcher 854449- [ ] Rev C2 of 5 Tyco Electronics Corporation 1.1. European Regulatory Information A technical file document, as required by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 1992, has been prepared for Ribbon Cable Notcher 854449- -[ ] for use with Pneumatic Applicator Frame Assembly 91112- -2 and 2700- -lb Pneumatic Power Unit 312522- -1. These components are CE approved only when used in conjunction with each other, and arenot approved separately. Refer to Product Drawing 356767 for Declaration of Conformity. 1.2. Noise Level The noise level generated by the combination of the ribbon cable notcher and the following power units are: POWER UNIT NOISE LEVEL RANGE (dB) Pneumatic Applicator Frame Assembly 91112- -2 82- -88 2700- -lb Pneumatic Power Unit 312522- -1 86- -90 Noise levels generated by periodic depression of the air control valve are in the range of 104 to 106 dB. 2. DESCRIPTION The ribbon cable notcher consists of a cable support plate, pressure plate, upper tooling, die scrap chute, air control valve, upper die plate subassembly, and cable stop plate. See Figure 1. The cable support plate provides initial alignment of the ribbon cable in the notcher. The pressure plate aids in positioning the cable during the notching process. The upper tooling and die notches the cable. The scrap chute and air control valve is used for scrap removal. The cable stop plate positions the cable for end notching. 3. PRESSURE PLATE ADJUSTMENT Due to dimensional variations in ribbon cable, itmight be necessary to adjust the height of the pressure plate. Four brass laminated shims (0.051 [.002] per lamination) have been provided to adjust the height of the pressure plate. The ribbon cable should fit snugly under the pressure plate with a slight drag and no side- -to- -side movement. If adjustment to the pressure plate is required, refer to Figure 2, and proceed as follows: 1. Remove the guard. Remove the retaining rings and upper die plate subassembly. 2. Carefully remove the upper tooling and compression springs. 3. Remove the pressure plate and curved spring washers. 4. Peel and place shims under the curved spring washers as necessary. Both curved spring washers must have an equal amount of shims. 5. Re- -assemble the notcher, making sure that the compression springs are properly seated in the counterbores. 4. INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL (Manual Arbor Frame and Pneumatic Applicator Frame) Refer to the instructions included with the corresponding adapter kit for installation and removal of the notcher for the pneumatic power unit and the terminating machine.

Remove the two socket head screws securing the cable stop plate, and remove and store the c a b l es t o pp l a t e . DO NOT bend or otherwise damage the cable stop plate during removal. 2. Place the cable on the cable support plate, and align the cable with the flutes of the plate. 3. Slightly press down on the cable (to keep the cable aligned with the flutes in the plate), and slide the cable into the notcher until desired length. R e f e rt oF i g u r e4 . 4. Cycle the power unit. 5. Advance the cable to the location of the next notch. 6. Remove the cable by pulling the cable either straight front or back and out of the notcher. 7. Refer to Figure 5, and inspect the cable according to the specifications listed in Figure 1. 5.3. Scrap Removal The frequency of scrap removal will depend on the number of notches. Compressed air used for scrap removal must be reduced to less than 206.8 kPa [30 psi]. Effective chip guarding and personal protective equipment (including eye protection) must be used. 1. Connect the air control valve to a suitable air supply. 2. Periodically depress the air control valve button to remove scraps. Depress the button for a maximum of two seconds. 6. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION 6.1. Daily Maintenance It is recommended that each operator be responsible for the following four steps of daily maintenance: 1. Remove dust, moisture, and outer contaminants with a clean, soft brush or a soft, lint- -free cloth; or clean the notcher with compressed air. Compressed air used for cleaning must be reduced to less than 206.8 kPa [30 psi]. Effective chip guarding and personal protective equipment (including eye protection) must be used. 2. Make sure that the upper tooling is in place and secure. 3. Lubricate the upper tooling dowel pins and pressure plate dowel posts daily with an extreme pressure (EP) lithium grease or equivalent. DO NOT lubricate excessively. For location of components, refer to the drawing included with the notcher. 4. When not in use, store the notcher in a clean, dry area. 6.2. Periodic Inspection Regular inspection should be performed by quality- -control personnel. A record of scheduled inspections should remain with the notcher or be supplied to personnel responsible for notcher. Though recommendations call for at least one inspection a month, the frequency should be based on amount of use, working conditions, operator training and skill, and established company policies.

Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by immersing the dies in a suitable commercial degreaser that will not damage the dies. 2. Make certain all components are in place. 3. Check all surfaces for wear. Replace worn parts. 4. Inspect the upper tooling and dies for flattened, chipped, or broken areas. 7. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR For location of parts and replacement component part numbers, refer to the drawing included with the notcher. Replacement parts are listed in Figure 6. Parts other than those listed should be replaced by Tyco Electronics to ensure quality and reliability.
