If the cam is not lined up, use the following
procedure.
a)
Disconnect the air supply with the cam
in the retracted position trigger is up.
b)
Grasp the center section of the cam
with a long nose plier and rotate the
cam clockwise (CW) until the center
line of the wedge line up with (2) #1/4-
20 holes in power unit. See Figure 5
for the correct alignment.
c)
Replace the head before cycling the
tool. Be sure both screws are in place
and tightened.
4.
To replace the crimp tool head, hold power
unit in left hand as shown in Figure 6.
5.
Grasp the crimp tool head with the right
hand and with the terminal locator facing
you. Slide the crimp tool head assembly
into the body of the power unit until the side
plates of the crimp tool head butt against
the steps in the power unit. Be sure the jaw return springs clear the cam in the power unit. See Figure 6.

2.2 Insulation Support Crimp Adjustment
(Older style fixed jaw air powered crimp tools heads)
1.
The crimp tool heads for the insulated terminals and
the connectors feature an adjustable insulation
support crimp to accommodate varying wire insulation
diameters (See Figure 7) for old style crimp tool head.
2.
The adjustment screw on each crimp head tool is set
at the factory at the M position. This setting will give
the best crimp on most wires. Two other adjustment
settings are available: S, the smallest configuration
and L, the largest configuration.
3.
Crimp a terminal or connector and inspect the
insulation support sleeve crimp or configuration. A
properly crimped sleeve snugly grasps the wire
insulation.
4.
If the crimp configuration is too loose, change the
adjustment setting by removing the air powered crimp
tool head from the AT-200 and setting adjustment screw to the S position. Re-insert the air powered crimp tool
head into the AT-200 and crimp, and inspect the insulation support sleeve.
5.
If crimp configuration is too tight, change adjustment setting by removing the air powered crimp tool head from
the AT-200 and setting adjustment screw to the L position. Re-insert the air powered crimp tool head into the
AT-200 and crimp, and inspect insulation support sleeve.
