Operation with the Crimp Quality Monitor and automatic cable clamp
NOTE
For the automatic cable clamp to work, Crimp Quality Monitoring and the automatic cable clamp must be selected by the set-
up person on the display screen prior to termination.
NOTE
The automatic cable clamp can be set to open manually (operator must push on handle to open the grip jaws) or open
automatically (clamp air cylinder will open the grip jaws and reset the handle) after a good crimp or after a defective crimp is
acknowledged.
1. Load a terminal into the die holder.
2. Load a wire or cable into the die holder and close the clamp jaws by lifting up on the handle.
NOTE
The jaws only help locate the cable. They do not lock the cable in place before and during crimping. They allow the cable to
slide in the jaws due to terminal extrusion during crimping. Cable should be supported outside of the guarding to prevent cable
movement before termination.
3. Press the Guard Control push button to close the guard.
