For specific dimensions on these tools, refer to the specific Customer Drawing from the TE service network. Contact the
Tooling Assistance Center number.
2.2. Precautionary Information
The following precautions must be observed when using these tools:
Do not exceed maximum air line pressure of 655 kPa [95 psi], or tool damage may occur. If shop air pressure exceeds
655 kPa [95 psi], use an air regulator. Refer to Paragraph 8.14. Also, for proper functioning of the tool, air line pressure
should never fall below 551.6 kPa [80 psi] during terminating cycles.
Disconnect or turn off air pressure, as instructed in the procedures, when changing tooling or performing any maintenance
on the tool.
Never hold the nose of the tool against the hand or body when squeezing the trigger. The tool nose must be clear of all
objects, or properly positioned on the terminal post, when the tool is actuated.
Never cycle the tool without having the side cover and top cover securely installed on the tool.
Before operating the tool, be sure that the compatible post, clip, wire, and wire insulation are being used.
It is also recommended that quick-disconnect fittings are used to connect the tool to the air supply. If not using
quick-disconnect fittings, provide a pneumatic lock-out on the air line that bleeds air after it is turned off.
3. TERMI-POINT TOOL AND CLIP SELECTION DATA
The following information is used to determine the proper tool, mandrel and clip for this TE post and the wire
being used. After post size, wire size, and insulation diameter range have been established, select the desired
tool and mandrel. Then, select the proper clip for the post, wire, and tool mandrel combination. The clips and
mandrels are color-coded to visually check component compatibility (i.e., red clip - red mandrel, orange clip -
orange mandrel, etc.).
For wire, clip, and tooling combinations other than those listed, contact your TE Representative or the Tooling Assistance
Center.
