1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet covers the use of Crimping Die
Assemblies listed in Figure 1, which are used to crimp
COPALUM Terminals and Splices and HF--30 Pin and
Socket Contacts. The die assemblies are used in
Crimping Heads 69082, 69099, 1752786--1, and
1752868--1. Refer to instruction sheet packaged with
the crimping head for information concerning die
installation and general performance of the head.
Read these instructions thoroughly before using the
die assemblies.
Dies are coated with preservative to prevent rust and
corrosion. Wipe this preservative away from dies,
particularly from crimping areas.
For further instructions on the hydraulic power unit
and hydraulic crimping heads, refer to the instructions
packaged with these tools.
2.1. Die Installation
See Section 7, REVISION SUMMARY, for revision

The radii of both dies must match the radii of the tool.
See Figure 1.
2. DESCRIPTION
Crimping head No. 69099 is illustrated throughout this
publication; however, die insertion, die removal and
crimping instructions are the same for 69099, 69082,
1752786--1, and 1752868--1 crimping heads.
The die assemblies consist of stationary dies (nest)
and moving dies (indenter). Refer to Figure 2A
(COPALUM contacts) or Figure 2B (HF--30 Contacts)
to ensure the compatibility of die assemblies,
crimping heads, and terminals and splices. These
dies are used to crimp COPALUM Terminals and
Splices on No. 8 through 500 MCM stranded or solid,
Proceed as follows:
1. Loosen retaining screw in top section of
