1. INTRODUCTION
!
Hydraulic Crimping Head 1752868--1 shown in
Figure 1 accepts interchangeable die sets for a
variety of terminals and splices that accept wire sizes
12 through 350 MCM. Refer to the instructions
packaged with the specific die set for compatible
products, wire ranges, strip dimensions, and

If a crimping head must be removed after the
power unit was in operation, be sure to release
the pressure in the hydraulic system. When using
Hydraulic Power Unit 1804700 -[ ],
DISCONNECT THE POWER UNIT FROM THE
POWER SUPPLY. When using Hydraulic Foot
