CRIMP TOOL
(2) The terminal conductor tabs (pointing UP) are placed in anvil
18-22; the terminal's insulation tabs extend in front towards the
camera.
(3) The stripped 22 gauge wire is placed into the terminal and
crimped. Note the wire's insulation must stop just short of the
conductor tabs (detail)
HAND CRIMP TOOL WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
The supplied hand crimping tool (PALADIN model PA1645, W/S#850067) is
used for all I/O wiring connections to and from the console. It is to be used with
the supplied .062" pin diameter silver crimp terminals (figure 1) intended for 22
gauge wire.
1) Strip wire approximately 3/16" (insert in
proper wire stripper, rotate one half turn, and
pull insulation off wire).
2) Leaving wire aside for the moment, with
Paladin tool fully open (engraved side toward
you) bring a terminal into position from the
unmarked side of the tool. Place the conductor
tabs (inner set as shown in figure 1) on the "18-
22" or "24-30" (depending on the wire) anvil
(slightly curved surface) so that the circular
portion of the tabs rests in the curved surface of
the anvil and the two tabs face up into the walls
of the female jaw. The insulation tabs will be
flush with the top of the tool (figure 2).
3) Close tool very slightly, only to the point of
holding the terminal in position (figure 2).
4) Insert wire into terminal until wire
insulation is stopped by conductor tabs (figure
3). CRIMP by squeezing handles until jaws are
fully closed.
5) If there is an insertion error or if a circuit
change is needed, you'll need to use an extractor
tool to remove terminals (next section).
