Tyco Electronics recommends that a maintenance
and inspection program be performed periodically to
ensure dependable and uniform terminations. The
head assembly should be inspected once a month.
Frequency of inspection should be adjusted to suit
your requirements through experience. Frequency of
inspection depends on:
Each head assembly is thoroughly inspected before
packaging. Since there is the possibility of damage
during shipment, new head assemblies should be
inspected immediately upon arrival at your facility.
Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants with
a clean, soft brush, or a soft, lint–free cloth. Do NOT
use objects or cleaning materials that could damage
the crimping head. Relubricate the head assembly, as
instructed in Paragraph 5.3, Lubrication, before
placing it back into service.

Lubricate all pins, pivot points, and bearing surfaces
with a high quality grease. Tyco Electronics
recommends the use of Molykote paste, which is a
commercially available lubricant. Lubricate according
to the following schedule:
Wipe excess grease from head assembly, particularly
in the die closure areas. Grease transferred from the
die closure area onto certain terminations may affect
the electrical characteristics of a termination.
Replacement parts and recommended spares are
listed in Figure 4. The recommended spares should
be stocked for immediate replacement. Parts should
be replaced by Tyco Electronics to ensure quality and
reliability of the head assembly. Order replacement
parts through your Tyco Electronics Representative,
or call 1–800–526–5142, or send a facsimile of your
purchase order to 1–717–986–7605, or write to:

2. Check all bearing surfaces for wear. Make sure
the rollers turn freely with minimal resistance.
Replace any worn parts.
3. Inspect the crimp areas in the die assembly for
flattened, chipped, or broken areas. Although the
dies may gage within permissible limits, worn or
damaged die closure surfaces may affect the
quality of the crimp.
