CAUTION
NOTE
1. Hold the tool so that the back (wire side) is
facing you. Squeeze tool handles together and
allow them to open fully.
2. Holding the contact by the insulation barrel,
insert the contact — mating end first — into the
locator slot. Position the contact so that the open
“U” of the wire and insulation barrels face the top of
the tool. Make sure the contact butts against the
adjustment screw. Check that the contact is
centered with the die assembly wire and insulation
anvils. If adjustment is required, refer to Section 5,

This tool is provided with a crimp adjustment
feature. Initially, the crimp height should be
verified as specified in Figure 4. Refer to
Section 6, CRIMP HEIGHT INSPECTION, and
Section 7, CRIMP HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT, to
verify crimp height before using the tool to crimp
desired contacts and wire sizes.
Make sure that both sides of the insulation barrel
are started evenly into the crimping section. Do
NOT attempt to crimp an improperly positioned
contact.

NOTE
4. Insert stripped wire into contact insulation and
wire barrels until it is butted against the wire stop
on the contact, as shown in Figure 3.
5. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles
together until ratchet releases. Allow tool handles
to open and remove crimped contact.
6. Check the contact’s crimp height as described in
Section 6, CRIMP HEIGHT INSPECTION. If
necessary, adjust the crimp height as described in
Section 7, CRIMP HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT.
1. Make a sample crimp according to Section 4,
CRIMPING PROCEDURE. If the crimp is out of
alignment, adjustment is required.
2. To move the contact from side–to–side, loosen
the nut that holds the locator to the frame and slide
the locator until the contact is properly positioned.
Hold the locator in place and tighten the nut.
3. To move the contact in or out, loosen the nut on
the adjustment screw and turn the screw until the
contact is properly positioned. Hold the screw in
