DIEINSTALLATION Crimping the Center Contact To be sure that the die assembly is properly aligned during installation, proceed as follows: 1. Slide the die assembly into the partially--opened tool jaws. The anvil die must be installed in the movable jaw of the tool and the indenter in the stationary jaw. The center contact crimping chamber must be toward the front of the tool as Center Contact shown in Figure 1. Flange Butt Against Edge 2. Insert, but do not completely tighten, the die of Die retaining screws. 3. Close the tool jaws and carefully align the dies Anvil Die so that the anvil die enters the indenter die. Once the anvil has entered the indenter, place a copper bus bar (1.57+0.05 mm .062+.002 in. diameter) into the center contact crimping chamber of the die Stripped Cable assembly. 4. With bus bar in place, close the tool jaws Flange on End of completely.
