Repairing the adjustable crimp height
Under some severe operating conditions or applications, the crimp height shim can break or become dislodged.
This can cause the applicator to produce terminations with a different crimp height than specified. To correct
this problem, complete the following steps.
1. Subtract the specified nominal crimp height from the average crimp height recorded under section 5.1,
. This difference is the thickness of the shims (part number 2119957-1) to be
added
under the spacer.
2. Remove the ram assembly (Figure 16) from the applicator.
