Machine Calibration Procedure
1. Using a straight edge, make sure the front of the transducer is flush with the front of the crimp cylinder and tighten the transducer
brackets.
2. Remove the control box cover and turn the RET LIM screw ten turns clockwise.
(Note: RET LIM is an abbreviation for Return Limit.)
3. Turn the machine on and retract the crimp cylinder using the JOG REV button until the power unit labors, then turn counterclockwise
until red light comes on and add 1/4 turn.
4. Turn the machine off, insert the blue FT1330-200-52 (FT1330-275-M240) die cage, and turn the RET LIM screw 10 turns
counterclockwise.
5. Set the digital encoder to 953 (900) and crimp an FJ9121-0404S fitting (1SA8 socket).
6. If the crimp diameter measures over .485 (.916), loosen the lock nut and turn the adjusting nut on the transducer rod
counterclockwise.
(Note: 1 turn = .015 in. in crimp diameter)
7. If the crimp diameter measures under .485 (.916), loosen the lock nut and turn the adjusting nut on the transducer rod clockwise.
8. Repeat steps 5 thru 7 until the crimp diameter measures .485 (.916).
9. Tighten the lock nut while holding the adjusting nut stationary.
10. Set the digital encoder to 078 (050) and crimp an FJ9121-0808S fitting (1SA12 socket).
11. If the crimp diameter measures over .865 (1.286), turn the SPAN screw inside the control box clockwise.
12. If the crimp diameter measures under .865 (1.286), turn the SPAN screw inside the control box counterclockwise.
13. Repeat steps 10 thru 12 until the crimp diameter measures .865 (1.286).
14. Turn the RET LIM screw 12 turns clockwise and retract the crimp cylinder using the JOG REV button until the power unit labors.
15. Turn the RET LIM screw counterclockwise until the red LED glows brightly and add 1/4 turn.
16. Turn the machine off, replace the control box cover, and remove the die cage.
