2. RECEIVING/INSPECTION

Adapter Assembly 2119483--1 is thoroughly inspected

during and after assembly. Prior to packaging and

shipping a final series of tests and inspections is

made to ensure proper function of the adapter. The

following inspections should be performed as a

safeguard against potential problems generated in

transit.

1. In a well--lighted area, carefully unpack the

adapter and inspect each component as it is

unpacked.

2. Thoroughly inspect each component for

evidence of damage that may have occurred in

transit. If any of the components are damaged,

file a claim against the carrier and notify Tyco

Electronics immediately.

It is IMPORTANT that these instructions, and

other documents shipped with the tooling (e.g.,

drawings, parts lists, tooling manual, etc.),

remain with the adapter, head, and hand tool for

the benefit of personnel responsible for

installation, operation, and maintenance.

The adapter should be inspected at regularly

scheduled intervals, depending on care, degree of

operator skill, the type and size of product being

crimped, and environmental conditions.

3. INSTALLATION/REMOVAL OF ADAPTER ASSEMBLY

AND DAHT II HEADS

Do not operate the Electro--Hydraulic Hand Tool

without the DAHT head and adapter installed.

Repeated operation in this manner may result in

damage to the Electro--Hydraulic Hand Tool.

To avoid personal injury, be sure to exercise

extreme caution when handling the

Electro--Hydraulic Hand Tool. Remove the power

source (and release hydraulic pressure, if

applicable ---- see 409--10095) before installing or

removing the DAHT tool head or adapter

assembly.

3.1. Adapter Installation/Removal

Refer to the Electro--Hydraulic hand tool manual

(409--10095) for instructions on installing and

removing the adapter assembly and the crimping

heads.

Note that adapter 2119483--1 does not have a

terminal grip thumb button. To remove the adapter,

unscrew it completely and then pull the adapter away

from the cylinder assembly.

3.2. DAHT Head Installation Removal

A. Installation

As supplied, the adapter assembly has two

quick--release pins installed. Refer to Figure 1. The

pins will be used to attach the DAHT Crimping Head

to the DAHT Adapter Assembly.

These pins must be removed prior to installing the

DAHT crimp head.

1. Remove the quick--release pins (see Figure 1).

2. Insert the DAHT tool head into the adapter

cavity.

3. Insert the two quick--release pins through the

holes in the adapter housing and the holes in the

two jaws of the DAHT crimp head. See Figure 1.

The quick--release pins will “snap” into position

when they are properly inserted.

B. Removal

1. Remove the quick--release pins.

2. Remove the tool head from the adapter cavity.

4. OPERATION

The following procedure provides only general

information concerning crimping. Refer to the

instructions packaged with the DAHT crimp head for

detailed information, including wire stripping

dimensions and instructions for positioning terminals

and splices in the crimpers.

To avoid personal injury, keep fingers clear of the

crimping area.

To operate the DAHT crimp head in the

Electro--Hydraulic Hand Tool using the Adapter

assembly, proceed as follows:

1. Insert the contact into the appropriate die cavity.

2. Pulse the trigger (Figure 1) to advance the lower

tooling and hold the contact in place. Do not

deform the terminal insulation or wire barrel.

3. Place a pre--stripped wire in the barrel of the

contact.

4. Squeeze the tool trigger until the jaws release.

When the jaws release, the crimp is complete.

It is not necessary to continue to hold the trigger

to retract the tooling. The tooling will retract

automatically.
