NOTE
Refer to tool label for color code information. Note
that Figure 2 indicates the number of dots that
appear embossed on a crimped terminal, splice or
cap. Observe the dot code on finished crimp to
insure that correct product and tool combination
was used.
Dot code will disappear after heat sealing
environment sealed splices.
Crimp the color coded terminals and splices in the
matching color coded portion of the tool. Refer to
Section 3.
3. Place terminal in crimping dies so that terminal
tongue slides under locator. See Figure 3.
4. Raise locator and place splice under locator as
shown in Figure 4. Splice window indent faces top
of tool.
NOTE
To properly position pre-insulated sealed splice,
apply and maintain pressure against end of splice
until Step 5 is completed. See Figure 4.

4. WIRE STRIPPING AND CRIMPING PROCEDURES
NOTE
Refer to Section 5 for insulation crimp adjustment.

i
CAUTION
Do not re-terminate the splices or terminals.
!
5. Press quick take-up trigger and close handles
until terminal or splice is held firmly in place. Do not
deform terminal or splice wire barrel.
6. Insert stripped wire into terminal until conductor
butts against locator. See Figure 3. Insert stripped
wire into splice until conductor butts against splice
wire stop. See Figure 4.
NOTE
Do not allow wire insulation to enter wire barrel.
4.1. PIDG and PLASTI-GRIP Terminals and Splices
1. Strip wire to dimensions listed in Figure 2.
NOTE
Do not use wires with nicked or missing conductor
strands
i
7. Hold wire in position and complete crimp by
closing handles until the ratchet releases.
8. Refer to Section 6 and Figure 6 or Figure 7 for
terminal or splice "Crimp Inspection" procedure.
i
2. Open crimping dies by closing handles until
ratchet releases. See Figure 1. Note, that once
ratchet is engaged, handles cannot be opened until
they are first fully closed.

4.2. .Spare Wire Caps
1. Strip wire to dimensions listed in Figure 2. Crimp
the color coded portion of the tool. Refer to
Section 3.
NOTE
Do not use wire with nicked or missing conductor
strands.
i
2. Place tool insulation adjustment indicator in
Position 4.
3. Close tool handles until crimping jaws partially
close, but leave enough space for cap to be
inserted between dies.
4. Raise locator so that end of cap rests against the
recessed surface of the locator as shown in
Figure 5.

5. Squeeze quick take-up trigger and close handles
until cap is held firmly in place. Do not deform cap
wire barrel.
6. Insert stripped wire into cap until conductor
bottoms in cap.
7. Hold wire in position and complete crimp by
closing handles until the ratchet releases. Handles
will open automatically and crimped cap may be
removed.
8. Refer to Section 6 and Figure 7 wire cap crimp
inspection procedure.

5. INSULATION CRIMP ADJUSTMENT
5.1. PIDG Terminals and Splices
NOTE
PIDG terminals and splices feature a wire
"insulation grip".
2. Place terminal or splice in tool dies.
3. Insert UNSTRIPPED wire into ONLY the
insulation barrel (see Figure 3 or Figure 4) of
terminal or splice.
4. Perform a crimp (Section 4). Remove crimped
terminal or splice and check insulation grip as
follows: Bend the wire back and forth once. Terminal
or splice should retain grip on wire insulation.
5. If wire pulls out, set insulation adjustment
indicator to next tighter position - Position 3.
i
Each tool has four insulation crimp positions. See
Figure 1.
1. Loosen insulation adjustment locking screw (see
