DESCRIPTION
Each die assembly features a stationary die, a moving die, and a locator assembly (see Figure 1). Both the
stationary and moving die have a shank (with a flat), which aligns and secures each die in the crimping head.
The locator assembly helps position the terminal in the stationary die.

CRIMPING
DANGER
Moving parts can crush and cut. To avoid injury while operating the power unit, exercise caution when holding terminals or
wires near the crimping area.
1. Select a wire of the correct size and insulation diameter for the terminal (see Table 3). Verify that the
same wire size is stamped on the terminal and the dies.
2.
Strip the wire to the length listed in Table 3.
Do not nick or cut wire strands.
