1. INTRODUCTION

“T”--HEAD Crimper 217202--1 is designed to crimp

PIDG* and PLASTI--GRIP* terminals on wire sizes

22--14 AWG. The crimper is used with 626 Pneumatic

Tooling Assemblies 189721--1, 189722--1, 189723--1,

and 189724--1. For information concerning the setup

and operation of the pneumatic tools, refer to

Customer Manual 409--5862.

This instruction sheet provides:

S

Installation and removal of the crimper from the

tool holder assembly.

S

Maintenance, inspection, and repair information

for the crimper.

For information concerning wire preparation, crimping

procedures, and crimp inspection, refer to the

associated instructions supplied with the terminals.

Read these instructions thoroughly before

proceeding.

Measurements are in metric units [followed by

U.S. customary units in brackets]. Figures and

illustrations are not drawn to scale and are for

reference only.

The “T”--HEAD Crimper attaches (via four quick pins)

to the tool holder assembly of the pneumatic power

unit. When actuated, a cam extends through the tool

holder into the crimper, driving an internal, roller--

guided envelope. The other end of this mechanism is

connected to an anvil and, as the cam pushes against

the roller--guided envelope, the anvil moves in a

straight line and bottoms against a stationary

indenter. When the cam of the pneumatic tool

retracts, the force is removed from the envelope.

The envelope must then be manually retracted by use

of a plastic slide switch. The plastic slide switch

permits opening and closing of the anvil for insertion

and removal of terminals or splices.

Before installing the crimper, refer to Customer

Manual 409--5862 for instructions on installing the

appropriate tool holder assembly (including cam) on

the pneumatic tool. After the appropriate tool holder

assembly has been installed, proceed as follows:

Removal is the reverse of installation.
