Adjusting
The shut height is pre-set at the factory and should not require further adjustment unless it is necessary to
replace parts. Before you make any changes to the machine, contact your local Field Service
Representative, or call the Tooling Assistance Center at 1-800-722-1111.
CAUTION
Never
attempt to adjust the shut height without
first
trying an applicator that is known to produce terminations of the correct
crimp height. If this applicator produces correct terminations, the trouble is in the original applicator and the shut height
must
not be changed
.
If the shut height must be adjusted, use the following procedure:
DANGER
To avoid personal injury,
always
turn the machine OFF and disconnect the power supply to the machine before making any
adjustments. If the applicator is an air-feed type,
disconnect
the air lines to the valve located on the right side of the machine.
1. Check shut height as described in
on page 27
2. If the shut height is incorrect, proceed as follows:
a. Remove three socket head cap screws which secure the ram post adaptor.
b. Remove the ram post adaptor and shims.
c. Change the shim thickness as required to adjust the shut height. Shims contain .051 mm
[.002-in.] peel-type laminations.
NOTE
If additional shims are required, order TE PN 2326019-1 See section 11 for ordering instructions.
d. Re-install the ram post adaptor.
e. Insert screws in the ram post adaptor.
f.
Place the shims over the screws and onto the adaptor post.
g. Re-install the socket head cap screws into the ram assembly to secure the ram post adaptor.
h. Re-tighten the screws.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 as necessary until the proper shut height is attained.
NOTE
The miniature applicator is an integrated assembly consisting of upper tooling, lower tooling, and adjustment mechanisms.
The applicator requires a fixed shut height (the distance between the bottom of the ram and the base mount when the ram is
fully
bottomed). The required adjustments for crimp height are made by using the wire and insulation discs within the
applicator. Refer to the instruction sheet supplied with the applicator for adjustment procedures.

Guard insert
A guard insert (PN 2326448-1) is supplied with the machine and is mounted on the upper guard. The safety
switch actuator is mounted to the guard insert. The machine does not operate without the guard insert and
safety switch actuated mounted in place.
