Remove the crimped terminal from the terminal
locator by pulling on the wire.

Visually inspect the crimped terminal for proper

On some large O.D. wires, it may not be possible
to insert the wire with the tool partially closed.
Those wires should be inserted with the hand tool
in the open position. Insert the wire above the
terminal in the punch and against the wire stop
then close the tool. See Figure 6.
