4. If the slug blade does not shear the terminal in the correct position, make note of the position and
continue to cycle the applicator to check the backstroke position. If the lead terminal is not slugged out
correctly and the backstroke position is incorrect, both the stroke length and the fine feed position must
be adjusted. Stroke length (backstroke position) must be adjusted before final centering of other
terminals
under
the slug blade.
a. Loosen the stroke length adjustment lock screw (see Figure 6).
b. Turn the stroke length adjustment screw
counter-clockwise
to reduce the stroke length or
clockwise
to increase the stroke length.
c. Tighten the stroke length adjustment lock screw.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 as required until the proper stroke length is achieved.
If the feed pawl stroke length is satisfactory and the backstroke position is correct, but the lead terminal
is not slugged out correctly (or positioned under the slug blade correctly) and the stroke is correct, but
the position is incorrect, an adjustment to the fine feed screw is required. Continue to the next step.
6. Adjust the feed pawl position.
a. Loosen the fine feed adjust lock screw on the side of the feed pawl holder to allow the fine feed
adjustment screw to turn. Refer to Figure 6.
CAUTION
Do not remove the fine feed adjust lock screw. A nylon plug is captured behind the lock screw. Loss of this plug causes
damage to the fine feed adjustment screw threads when the lock screw is tightened.
b. Turn the adjustment screw
counter-clockwise
to move the feed pawl away from the anvil and
clockwise
to move the feed pawl toward the anvil. Position the terminal
under
the slug blade.
c. Tighten the lock screw to secure the fine feed adjustment screw.
7. Re-check the adjustment for the proper position and stroke as described in step 1. Repeat the
adjustment procedure as necessary.
Air feed applicator
The feed mechanism is actuated by compressed air. Refer to Figure 3.
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, use this applicator only in an appropriate terminating machine.
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, do not connect the pressurized air supply until
after
the applicator is properly installed in the
terminating machine. When the machine is manually cycled, the mechanism moves forward and backward once during each
machine stroke, unless the air is disconnected.
DANGER
Moving parts can crush and cut. Never insert hands into installed equipment.
DANGER
Do not wear jewelry, loose clothing, or long hair that can catch in moving parts of the equipment.
DANGER
Do not operate the equipment without guards in place.
