INSTRUCTION MANUAL
HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD.
Foreword
Congratulations on your purchase of a DF14 Desktop insulation displacement machine SA704A/DF14.
It is a desktop style insulation displacement machine that operates as follows: When discrete cables that have been
cut to a predetermined length are inserted into cable guide one by one or two at a time, a touch sensor mounted inside
the machine detects the cables and the machine automatically welds them with pressure to DF14 connectors.
Be sure to read this Instruction Manual carefully before putting the machine into service to fully understand functions
and performance of this machine for proper use.
To help fully understand the description given in this
Instruction Manual
and the warning labels attached onto the
machine, the warning messages are used in accordance with the below-stated classification. Please be sure to
thoroughly understand the messages and follow the instructions.
WARNING :
Used in the case where it is assumed that misuse of the machine can expose the operator to danger of major injury or
death.
CAUTION :
Used in the case where it is assumed that misuse of the machine can expose the operator to danger of injury and can cause
damage only to property.

CHAPTER 1
* Simple to operate!
FEATURES
The machine is ready for operation only by turning the power ON and setting the connector. If you move the connector to the
insulation displacement starting position and put the cables into the insertion slot, the machine will automatically weld the
cables with pressure and feed the connector pitch by pitch. It is also possible to feed the connector pitch by pitch.
* Compact and portable!
The machine is compact in size and only weights approximately 6 kg. So, it is easily portable.
* Increase efficiency in insulation displacement work!
The use of this machine replaces Insulation displacement work with "inserting
cables into cable insertion slot."
As a result,
the machine helps increase efficiency in operation and substantially reduce the length of time required for insulation displacement.
* Able to weld with pressure twist cables!
Operation mode can be changed over only by shifting the operation mode selector lever between the single-sequential insulation
displacement mode and the double-simultaneous insulation displacement mode.
The double-simultaneous mode is best-suited to insulation displacement twist cables since two cables are insulation-displaced
at a time when this mode is selected.

Explanation of function
Used to turn the power on. The lamp lights up when the power switch is set to the
ON position.
Used to perform one cycle of insulation displacement. This switch is used for false
placement.
Used to carry the machine.
Indicates the number of contacts to which a cable is to be welded with pressure.
Light up when an inserted cable is detected.
In the case of any operation fault, both lamps flash on and off.
Insulation displacement mode is changed over between the single-sequential/
double-simultaneous modes.
Connector is set in this holder.
Used to secure the connector placed in the connector holder. Change over the bolt
setting position with the number of contacts of the connector.
Used to release the connector holder from the locked state.
Positioning pin against which a cable is to be pressed at the beginning of insulation
displacement.
Used to limit the pitch-feeding of the connector holder. Change over the set
position of the stopper with the number of contacts of the connector.
A punch for welding a cable with pressure.
Used to adjust the insulation displacement height. The height can be adjusted in
five stages in 0.1 mm steps.
The guide plate when inserting the cable.
The cover used to permit personnel to work with safety.
It has to be detached when replacing the Insulation displacement punch.
To be placed before starting insulation displacement work.
A 100 VAC (50/60 Hz) power cable.
