6. Inspect crimped terminals or splices according

to Figure 5. Use only the terminals or splices that

meet the conditions shown in the “ACCEPT”

column. “REJECT” terminals can be avoided by

carefully following the above procedures and by

performing regular tool maintenance, as provided

in Section 4, MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION.

4. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

Tyco Electronics recommends that a maintenance

and inspection program be performed periodically to

ensure dependable and uniform terminations.

Frequency of inspection depends on:

1. The care, amount of use, and handling of the

dies.

2. The presence of abnormal amounts of dust and

dirt.

3. The degree of operator skill.

4. Your own established standards.

The crimping head is inspected before being shipped;

however, Tyco Electronics recommends that it be

inspected immediately upon arrival at your facility to

ensure that no damage occurred during shipment.

Due to the precision design, it is important that no

parts of these heads be interchanged except

replacement parts. Refer to Section 5,

REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR.

4.1. Daily Maintenance

1. Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants

with a clean brush, or a soft, lint–free cloth. Do

NOT use objects that could damage the jaws of

the crimping head.

2. All surfaces should be protected with a thin coat

of any good SAE 20 motor oil. Do NOT oil

excessively.

3. When the head is not in use, store it in a clean,

dry area.
