4. TERMINATION PROCEDURE

Make sure that the connector matches the wire size

to be terminated, then refer to Figure 3, and proceed

as follows:

1. Align the side of the connector with the side of

the head (so that it will move in the direction of the

arrow), and slowly slide the connector into the feed

channel. Stop when the desired contact position

aligns with the wire slot.

If the connector cannot be inserted into the head

or if the connector is too loose in the head, refer

to Paragraph 5.2 for wire guide adjustment.

2. Insert the wire into the wire slot until the wire

bottoms on the head.

3. Center the wire in the wire slot, then actuate the

power unit until the wire inserter bottoms (the wire

inserter will retract and the connector will advance

to the next contact position).

4. Center the wire in the wire slot, then actuate the

power unit until the wire inserter bottoms (the wire

inserter will retract and the connector will advance

to the next contact position).

5. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 until all applicable

contacts are terminated.

6. Slide the connector out of the head in the

direction of the arrow.

7. Inspect each terminated contact according to

Figure 4. If any contact does not meet the

requirements, DO NOT use the connector. Refer to

Section 5 for adjustments.

For application requirements for the connectors,

refer to the appropriate application specification:

114--25019 for single--row connectors and

114--25032 for double--row connectors.

5. ADJUSTMENTS

For pneumatic power units, to avoid personal

injury, ALWAYS disconnect the air supply before

making adjustments to the head.

For electric power units, to prevent personal

injury, ALWAYS disconnect the electrical power

supply before making adjustments to the head.

5.1. Wire Insertion Depth

If the wire is inserted too deep or not deep enough in

the contact after termination, adjust the wire insertion

depth as follows:

A. Pneumatic Power Units

Increase the air pressure by 10 psi [69 kPa]. Repeat

the termination and inspection procedure. Continue in

this manner until the proper wire insertion depth is

obtained or the air pressure is set to 70 psi [483 kPa].

If proper wire insertion depth is not obtained at 70 psi

[483 kPa], return the air pressure to 40 psi [276 kPa]

and follow Paragraph B.

For pneumatic power units, it might be necessary

to adjust either the wire insertion depth or the air

pressure.
