3.2. Pneumatic Tools
If using Pneumatic Crimping Tool 69365, the manual
take-up attachment 307569-1 should be installed on
the tool before crimping. Refer to Instruction Sheet
packaged with the manual take-up attachment
307569-1 for installation instructions.
1. Shut off air supply.
2. Position stationary die in stationary die holder
and moving die in moving die holder. Refer to
Figure 1. Fasten die holding screws enough to hold
dies in place but do NOT tighten fully.
3. Reconnect air supply. Then activate tool by
depressing trigger or foot switch until dies bottom.
Fully tighten both die holding screws while dies are
bottomed. The tool is now ready for crimping.
DANGER
Avoid personal injury. Always keep fingers clear of
crimping area when air is connected.

Check die alignment and tighten die

6. Holding wire in place activate tooling to perform a
complete cycle. For the hand tool, squeeze the
handles until the ratchet releases. For pneumatic
tooling, depress either the trigger or foot switch.
7. Remove crimped contact from between the upper
and lower dies. The tool can now be used to crimp
more contacts.
4. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
The following steps are recommended to crimp wires
to the contacts listed in Figure 2.:
1. Refer to the table in Figure 2 and select stranded
wire of the specified size and insulation diameter
and the applicable contact for that wire size and
insulation diameter. Strip the wire to the length
indicated - do NOT cut or nick the wire strands.
2. Orient the tooling so the FRONT is facing you.
See Figure 3.
3. Insert contact - insulation barrel first - into the
BACK of the crimp section. Position contact in
crimpers so that (tool) locator enters locator slot
in contact.
4. Hold contact in this position and close dies
just enough to hold contact in place - do NOT
deform contact.
5. Insert a properly stripped wire through the wire
slot in the locator and into the wire barrel of the
contact until the insulation butts against locator/
insulation stop.
NOTE
If using hand tool, you will note that the crimping
dies bottom before the ratchet releases. this is a
design feature that ensures maximum electrical
and tensile performance of the crimp. Do NOT re-
adjust the ratchet.
5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, ALWAYS release hydraulic
pressure to hose or control and disconnect power
STOP
unit from power supply before performing
maintenance or inspection procedure.
TE Connectivity recommends that a maintenance and
inspection program be performed periodically to
ensure dependable and uniform terminations.
Frequency of inspection should be adjusted to suit
your requirements through experience and depends
on:
1. The care, amount of use, and handling of the
crimping die.
2. The type and size of the product crimped.
3. The degree of operator skill.
4. The presence of abnormal amounts of dust
and dirt.
5. Your own established standards.
Each crimping die is thoroughly inspected before
packaging. Since there is a possibility of damage
during shipment, crimping die should be inspected
immediately upon arrival at your facility.

5.1. Daily Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the dies be
made aware of-and responsible for-the following steps
of daily maintenance:
1. Remove dust, dirt, and other contaminants with a
clean brush, or a soft, lint-free cloth. Do NOT use
objects that could damage the dies.
2. Make certain the dies are protected with a THIN
coat of any good SAE 20 motor oil. Do NOT oil
excessively.
3. When the dies are not in use, mate them and
store in a clean, dry area.
3. Using a crimp height comparator, measure the
wire barrel crimp height as shown in Figure 4. If the
crimp height conforms to that height, the tool is
considered dimensionally correct. If not, the tool
must be returned to AMP for evaluation and repair.
See Section 6, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR.

5.2. Periodic Inspection
Regular inspections should be performed by quality
control personnel. A record of scheduled inspections
should remain with the dies and/or be supplied to
supervisory personnel responsible for the dies.
Though recommendations call for at least one
inspection a month, the inspection frequency should
be based on the amount of use, ambient working
conditions, operator training and skill, and established
company standards. These inspections should be
performed in the following sequence:

A. Visual Inspection
1. Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by
immersing the dies in a suitable commercial
degreaser that will not affect paint or plastic
material.
2. Make sure all die components are in place. If
replacements are necessary, refer to the
replacement parts listed in Figure 5.
3. Check components for wear. Remove and
replace worn components.
4. Inspect the crimp area for flattened, chipped,
cracked, worn, or broken areas. If damage is
evident, the dies must be repaired before returning
them to service (see Section 6, REPLACEMENT
AND REPAIR).
6. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR
Replaceable parts are listed in Figure 5. Parts other
than those listed in Figure 5 should be replaced by TE
to ensure quality and reliability of the tool. Order
replacement parts through your TE representative, or
call 1-800-526-5142, or send a facsimile of your
purchase order to 1-717-986-7605, or write to:

B. Crimp Height Inspection
Crimp height inspection is performed through the use
of a micrometer with a modified anvil, commonly
referred to as a crimp height comparator. TE does not
market crimp height comparators. Refer to Instruction
Sheet 408-7424 for detailed information on obtaining
and using a crimp height comparator.
Proceed as follows:
1. Refer to the table in Figure 2 and select a contact
