A. Normal Production Operation
This procedure assumes that the tool head and dies have been installed.
1. Connect the provided power cord into the receptacle at the rear of the terminator, and then into the
power outlet.
2. Move the ON/OFF button to Position No.“|”.
The green signal lamp should light when the ON/OFF switch is in Position No. “|”. If the signal lamp does
not light, check the fuses at the rear of the terminator. These fuses can be checked after rotating and
removing the the back fuse holders.
3. Connect the foot pedal to the foot pedal socket at the rear of the terminator. Lock the pedal in place
by turning the connector clockwise.
The foot pedal is equipped with a safety lock, which prevents operation of the terminator when the foot
pedal has been completely floored due to excessive pressure applied to the foot pedal.. This safety lock
can be released by turning the knob on the foot pedal back to its original position. Now the terminator is
ready for operation again.
The dies are normally closed, for safety reasons. The dies are opened (retracted) with the control lever at the front of
the tool head in order to insert the connector to be crimped.
4. After the connector is properly positioned in the crimp dies, release the control lever to allow the dies
to spring shut, holding the connector in position.
5. Insert the stripped wire, then apply moderate pressure to the foot pedal to cycle the terminator.
The foot pedal must be held down constantly to ensure a complete working cycle.
6. Open the dies by depressing the control lever, and remove the completed crimp.
B. Vario–Operation
(Figure 9)
The terminator can be operated also in “double step” mode. When the terminator has been switched to
Vario–operation, it can be operated with two separate and distinct steps: First step for holding the inserted
contact, second step for crimping and moving back into the final position.
The Vario–position can be adjusted to the respective contact material (1 = min; 6 = max.) by means of the
knob for Vario–adjustment (refer to Figure 3).
C. Reverse Rocker Switch
If it is necessary to retract the dies without completing the crimping cycle, depress and hold the reverse
rocker switch to return the guide ram of the tool head to the lowest position.
