2. DESCRIPTION
Termi-Point air tools, with interchangeable mandrels as listed in the tool and clip selection figures, (see Figures 2
through 16), are used to terminate TE rectangular posts with Termi-Point clips. See the table in Figure 1.
The clips are automatically fed from a reel into the tool in continuous strip form. Unstripped wire, either stranded
or solid, is inserted into the tool mandrel and terminated to the post with a clip.
The hand-operated tool is shown in Figure 1. The semiautomatic tools are very similar to the hand-operated
tools; however a small air cylinder assembled to a bracket on the right side of the tool is used to actuate the wire
funnel lever. See Figure 33.
