STRIPPING THE WIRE
1. Once you’ve determined which terminals you are working
with, position the wire in the corresponding strip guide.
There are two holes; one for the 8mm wire and another
for the 8.5mm wire.
2. There are two stripping positions indicated on the
stripping slot, depending on the terminal being used.
Slide the wire to the correct position and strip the sleeve
by holding a razor blade flush with the strip guide and
rotate the wire 360° (Figure 6).
3. Remove the wire and twist the cut end of the sleeve off
in a counterclockwise direction.
CRIMPING
To achieve the strongest crimp possible, it is required to
bend the crimp tabs over about 90° using needle nose
pliers (Figure 7). Follow the instructions for the terminal
you are using.
STANDARD TERMINALS
1. After stripping the sleeve, fold the conductor back along
the wire insulation (Figure 8).
2. Do not allow the conductor to pull tightly against the
insulation. A small gap around the conductor should be
present before crimping. Slide the wire into the terminal
with the conductor positioned so it is in contact with the
bottom of the terminal. Position the wire through until the
insulation protrudes about 1/8" beyond the crimp tabs.
3. Position the wire and terminal into the "W" groove of the
Mini-Stripper Crimper and proceed to Steps 4 - 6.
DUAL CRIMP TERMINALS
1. After stripping the sleeve, position the wire in the terminal
so the insulation protrudes about 1/8" beyond the
insulation crimp tabs and the conductor extends about
1/8" past the conductor crimp tabs (Figure 9)
2. Position the wire and terminal into the "W" groove of the
Mini-Stripper Crimper and follow Steps 3 - 6 to crimp
the terminal to the sleeve.
Note: It is normal for the conductor to retract into the
insulation slightly as the sleeve crimp is made.
3. After the sleeve is crimped, push the conductor between
the crimp tabs and use a set of needlenose pliers to crimp
them together. DO NOT OVER CRIMP.
4. Slide the other part of the Mini-Stripper-Crimper over the
wire terminal and lightly press them together (Figure 10).
