Step 5.  

Using only hand pressure, extend the arbor as far to the left as it will  

 

 

go. 

Step 6.  

Using appropriate GO NO-GO gauges, open the funnel and insert   

 

 

gauges into the indenters to determine the "G" dimensions. 

  

 

to correspond to the largest wire size. 

NOTE: Be sure to use gauges corresponding to proper wire gauge and contact 

gauge. 

Step 7.  

If the "G" dimension is acceptable, go to Step 14. If the "G" dimension  

 

 

is not acceptable, go to Step 8. 

Step 8.  

Refer to Figure 6-6. 

Step 9.  

Loosen the Stafford clamp collar. 

Step 10.    

Rotate the "ADJUST' adjustable stop counter clockwise to decrease  

 

 

the "G" dimension, or clockwise to increase the "G" dimension. 

Step 11.   

Repeat Steps 5 through 10 until the "G" dimension is within acceptable 

 

 

parameters. 

Step 12.  

Hand-tighten the Stafford clamp collar, being careful not to change the  

 

 

adjustable stop position. 

Step 13.   

Repeat steps 5 and 6. 

NOTE: Operator-adjustable "G" dimension TAC's should be adjusted at setting 6. If 

desired after adjustment has been completed, GO NO-GO verification may be 

performed for the remaining settings. 

Step 14.   

Install the crimp cylinder arbor cover plate and the funnel cover plate  

 

 

removed in Step 3. 

Step 15.   

Connect the air supply to the sleeve valve.  

Step 16.   

Set the feeder-bowl power on-off switch to on.  

Step 17.   

Close the sleeve valve. 

Step 18.   

Verify a contact is seated in the transfer tip and that the transfer tip is in 

 

 

the ready-to-crimp position. 

Step 19.  

Using a conductor of proper material and gauge, strip it to the proper  

 

 

strip length. Be sure the "G" dimension, if applicable, is at the proper  

 

 

setting. 

Step 20.    

While being careful that all conductor strands enter  the  funnel without  

 

 

bending back, insert the conductor into the funnel until it bottoms out.
