DANGER
3. Install the lower die (anvil) into the lower die
holder and partially secure it with the cap screw
provided with the die assembly.
NOTE
4. Slide the lower subassembly under the ram and
against the stop on the base plate.
NOTE
5. Lower the ram to engage the upper die holder
subassembly with the lower die holder
subassembly. Tighten the lower die assembly cap
screw.
6. Install the plastic guard assembly onto power
unit using the six button head cap screws provided
with the die holder assembly.
7. Connect the air supply to raise the ram.
8. After the ram has reached its uppermost
position, the power unit will re--cycle. The power
unit is ready to operate when the cycle is complete.
1. DISCONNECT the power unit from the air
supply.
2. Using a hex wrench, remove the cap screw from
each die; then lift the die assembly out from the die
holding plates.
3. Re--install the cap screws into each die
component and mate and place the die assembly
in a suitable container. Store it in a clean dry area.

6. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
1. Remove the upper and lower die holders used
for the AMPLIMITE connector.
2. Install the lower die holder used for the SDL
connector onto the lower tooling assembly; locate it
against the clamping block and align it with the
tapped hole using the alignment gage. Secure the
die holder to the lower tooling assembly.
3. Assemble the locator to the upper die holder
used for the SDL connector using two 8--32
screws.
4. Assemble the upper die holder to the upper
tooling assembly. Align the upper die holder with
the lower die holder using the alignment gage.
Secure the upper die holder to the upper tooling
assembly.
5. Remove the alignment gage, and install the
appropriate die assembly used for the SDL
connector as described in Section 4, DIE
ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL.
1. Slide the lower die holder out from under the
ram of power unit.
2. With the ferrule properly positioned on the
connector (cable assembly), position the ferrule in
the “target area” of the die assembly. Allow the
front of the connector shell to rest in the slot of the
connector support bracket of the die holder
subassembly.
3. Position the cable into the cable clamp springs.
4. Slide the lower die holder subassembly back
against the stop. The lower die holder should be
aligned with the upper die holder.
NOTE
i
The ram will automatically lower when lower die
holder is positioned against stop.
