Feed Pawl Replacement
1. Remove the hex head cap screw that holds the Feed Pawl to the Feed Pawl Holder.
2. Replace the Feed Pawl using the reverse procedure.
Note
: If a new Feed Pawl is installed, verify the
part number agrees with the number on the applicator parts list.
3. Adjust the Feed Pawl as described in Paragraph 5.3 or 5.4, as applicable.
Crimper Replacement
1. Loosen the Crimper Bolt slightly and remove the ram assembly from the applicator by pulling upward.
It may be necessary to move the Feed Pawl forward to release the ram assembly.
2. Remove the Crimper Bolt and the Front Shear Depressor, Front Shear Depressor Spacer, Tubular
Spacer, Insulation Crimper, Crimper Spacer, and Wire Crimper. Note order/position of parts for re-
installation.
3. Re-install the parts using the reverse procedure.
Note
: The upper end of the Wire Crimper must be up
against the shoulder of the ram assembly. Tighten the crimper bolt only finger-tight.
NOTE
Crimpers must be positioned with the part number facing up. If new parts are used, verify the part numbers agree with the
numbers on the applicator parts list.
4. Put the ram assembly back into the applicator and install the applicator in machine.
5. Lift the Feed Pawl and pull the terminal strip back until the lead terminal is between the Strip Guides.
6. Form a piece of heavy paper over the Anvil and slowly hand-cycle the machine while watching
alignment of the crimpers with the Anvil. When the ram assembly has reached the bottom of the
stroke, carefully torque the Crimper Bolt to 8-10 lbf-ft [10.8-13.6 Nm].
Note
: The Crimpers must move
without interference over the Anvil after the heavy paper is removed.
7. Before using applicator, set wire disc crimp height reference setting to zero, and then, incrementally
adjust toward desired crimp height.
A crimp height reference setting larger than needed may
cause damage to the crimp tooling
.

Replacement of Detent Plate
Under severe, long-term use, the Detent Plate may become worn and make it difficult to feel the
increments of adjustment. To replace the Detent Plate:
1. Note the number indicated on the Wire Crimp Disc.
2. Turn the disc to 0 (zero), against the stop.
3. Measure the set-up dimension from the Crimp Height Adjust Head to the Crimper Seating Feature on
the Ram (see Figure 13).
Note
: The factory setting is listed on the Applicator print.
4. While depressing the Detent Pin, rotate the disc and head assembly out of the Ram.
5. Remove all (3) M3 flat-head screws from the disc.
6. Separate the disc from the head.
7. Inspect the Detent Plate for wear in the areas the Detent Pin contacts. Replace the plate if webs of
ring are broken.
NOTE
In some cases, the plate can be rotated or flipped over so the Detent Pin contacts a new (unused) section.
