6. APPLICATOR ADJUSTMENT
6.1 Terminal Feed Position Adjustment.
CAUTION
The following adjustments require the removal
of the safety guards and must only be carried
out by authorized competent persons.
There is a risk of serious crushing injury in
tooling exposed by the removal of the safety
guards . Ensure that fingers are kept away
from the moving parts of the applicator.
When using the MK-L Applicator
Adjust the terminal feed position to adjust the terminal
crimping position. Before making this adjustment be sure
that the applicator is mounted in the crimping machine
correctly and the press ram is at Top Dead Centre.
Loosen the 5mm cap head socket screw and the knurled
collar using a small length of silver steel or similar, as
indicated on the photograph.
With the aid of the silver steel or a flat ended screw-
driver rotate the adjustment shaft so that the feed-finger
places the terminal in the correct position for crimping.
Rotate the shaft counter-clockwise to move the terminal
forward, and clock-wise to move it backwards.
When the adjustments are completed, tighten the
knurled collar first followed by the cap screw.
Rotate the press through one revolution manually (see
page 10), and check the resultant crimped terminal. If the
appearance of the terminal is not correct repeat the
above adjustment operation and check again.
When a satisfactory result is achieved, replace the
guards, connect the crimping machine to the power
supply and recommence the crimping operation.
When using the MKS-L Applicator
Adjust the terminal feed position to adjust the terminal
crimping position. Before making this adjustment be sure
that the applicator is mounted in the crimping machine

To position a terminal at the centre of the die, follow the
procedure below.
Loosen the 5mm cap head socket screw and the knurled
collar using a small length of silver steel or similar, as
indicated on the photograph.
With the aid of the silver steel or a flat ended screw-
driver rotate the adjustment shaft so that the feed-finger
places the terminal in the correct position for crimping.
Rotate the shaft counter-clockwise to move the terminal
to the right (forwards), and clock-wise to move it to the
left (backwards).
When the adjustments are completed, tighten the
knurled collar first followed by the cap screw.
Rotate the press through one revolution manually (see
page 10), and check the resultant crimped terminal. If the
appearance of the terminal is not correct repeat the
above adjustment operation and check again.
When a satisfactory result is achieved, replace the
guards, connect the crimping machine to the power
supply and recommence the crimping operation.
