the crimping head to the SDE Electric Bench Machine
and provides the necessary straight line motion of the
movable die when the SDE Electric Bench Machine is
actuated.
The tool holder assembly features a switch (handle)
and three quick pins. See Figure 2. The switch
(handle) can be used to manually open and close the
dies of the crimping head for insertion and removal of
the product.
The two outer quick--release pins secure the outer
tabs of the crimping head to the tool holder assembly,
and the center quick--release pin secures the the
movable die of the crimping head to the internal
spring--loaded switch of the tool holder assembly.

4. When the tool holder assembly is not in use,
store it in a clean, dry area.
There are four different crimp heights. Refer to
Figure 6.
NOTE
i
Although Tyco Electronics normally recommends
Position No. 2 (adjustment of the manufacturer),
Positions No. 3 and No. 4 increase the travel of
the tool head, which decreases the crimp height.
Position No. 1 decreases the the travel of the
head, which increases the crimp height.
Use a Flat-- Bladed Screwdriver
6.2. Lubrication
Lubricate all pins, pivot points, and bearing surfaces
with a high quality grease. It is recommended using
Molykote paste which is a commercially available
lubricant. Lubricate according to the following
schedule:
If the tool holder assembly is used daily—lubricate
daily
If the tool holder assembly is used
occasionally—lubricate weekly
If the tool holder assembly is used
weekly—lubricate monthly
6.3. Visual Inspection
Regular inspections should be performed by
quality--control personnel. A record of scheduled
inspections should remain with the tool holder
assembly or be supplied to personnel responsible for
the tool holder assembly. Though recommendations
call for at least one inspection a month, the frequency
should be based on amount of use, working
conditions, operator training and skill, and established
company policies.
Crimp Height Adjustment
(One Step Equals 0.1mm [.004 In.])
1. Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by
immersing the tool holder assembly in a suitable
commercial degreaser that will not affect paint or
plastic.
2. Make certain all components are in place.
3. Check all bearing surfaces for wear. Replace
any worn parts. If replacements are necessary,
refer to Section 7, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR.

5. OPERATION
The tool holder assembly is used with the SDE
Electric Bench Terminator and a CERTI--CRIMP II
Crimping Head. For operating instructions, refer to

7. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR
6. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
Customer--replaceable parts are listed in Figure 7.
