Crimp Height Adjustment Mechanism
NEVER attempt to adjust the shut height without FIRSTtrying an applicator that is known to produce terminations of
the correct crimp height. If this applicator produces correct terminations, the trouble is in the original applicator and the
shut height MUSTNOTBE CHANGED.
If it is determined that the shut height must be adjusted, use the following procedure:
To avoid personal injury, ALWAYS turn off" the machine and disconnect the power supply to the machine before
making any adjustments. If applicator is an air-feed type, DISCONNECTair lines to valve located on the right side of
the machine.
1. Check shut height as described in Paragraph 6.1.
2. If the shut height is incorrect, refer to Figure 14, and proceed as follows:
a. Remove the two socket head cap screws which secure the ram post adaptor. Remove the ram
post adaptor and shims. Change the shim thickness as required to adjust the shut height. Shims
contain .051–mm [.002–in.] peel–type laminations.
b. Re–install the ram post adaptor. Insert both screws in the ram post adaptor and place the shims
over the screws and onto the adaptor post.
c. Re–install the socket head cap screws into the ram assembly to secure the ram post adaptor.
Re–tighten the screws.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 as necessary until the proper shut height is attained.
The miniature applicator is an integrated assembly consisting of upper tooling, lower tooling, and adjustment
capability. The applicator requires a fixed shut height; that is, the distance between the bottom of the ram and the base
mount when the ram is FULLY bottomed. The required adjustments for crimp height are made by using the wire and
insulation discs within the applicator. Refer to the instruction sheet supplied with the applicator for adjustment
procedures.
