1. INTRODUCTION
Latch Head Battery Powered Crimp Tool Kit 1901343--[ ] consists of the Latch Head Battery Powered Crimp
Tool (with the Latch Head Assembly installed), as well as two rechargeable battery cartridges (1725839--1) to
power the tool. See Figure 1. Kits 1901343--1 and --3 include a 110V battery charger (1725840--1); Kits
1901343--2 and --4 include a 220V battery charger (1725840--2). Kits 1901343--1 and --2 have a release switch
to retract the ram. Kits 1901343--3 and --4 do not have a release switch. The Latch Head Battery Powered
Crimp Tool is designed to accept interchangeable die assemblies for crimping various types of connectors.
2. RECEIVING/INSPECTION
Latch Head Battery Powered Crimp Tool Kit 1901343--[ ] is thoroughly inspected during and after assembly.
Prior to packaging and shipping a final series of tests and inspections is made to ensure proper functioning of
the tool. The following inspection should be performed as a safeguard against potential problems generated in
transit.
1. In a well--lighted area, carefully uncrate the tool and inspect each component as it is removed from
the crate.
2. Thoroughly inspect each component for evidence of damage that may have occurred in transit. If any
of the components are damaged, file a claim against the carrier and notify TE Connectivity immediately.
3. Keep this manual and all drawings and product samples with the tool for the benefit of operation and
maintenance personnel.
The crimp tool should be inspected at regularly scheduled intervals, depending on care, degree of operator
skill, the type and size of product being crimped, and environmental conditions. At a minimum, the tool should
be inspected after every 40 hours of use.
3. INSTALLATION/REMOVAL OF DIE ASSEMBLIES

The Batteries Directive 2006/66/EC introduces new requirements from September 2008 on removability of batteries
from waste equipment in EU Member States. To comply with this Directive, this device is designed to allow the
rechargeable battery pack to be easily removed by the end--user when it needs to be replaced.

To remove the battery, disengage the battery lock by applying pressure on the lock toward the bottom of the
tool and slide the battery away from the tool.
DANGER
Always dispose of the old battery pack in an environmentally--responsible way, in accordance with local waste
regulations. Where possible, please recycle the battery cartridge. Contact your local authority for details of battery
recycling locations in your area.
4.2. Crimping
The following procedure provides only general information concerning crimping. Refer to the instructions
packaged with the dies for detailed information, including wire stripping dimensions and instructions for
positioning terminals and splices in the die assemblies.
Operation of Latch Head Battery Powered Crimp T ool 1901343--[ ] consists of:
DANGER
CAUTION
Avoid personal injury. When operating tool or power unit, exercise caution while holding terminals or wire near the
crimping area.
1. Strip the wire to the dimensions provided for the terminals in TE Instruction Sheets 408--10050
(SOLISTRAND* Terminals and Splices); or 408--10051 (TERMINYL*, AMPOWER*, PLASTI--GRIP*
Terminals and Splices). Do not nick or cut the wire strands.
2. Select the proper color--coded terminal for the wire size. The wire size stamped on the terminal
tongue and on the crimping die must match the wire size selected.
3. Insert stripped wire fully into the terminal wire barrel.
Do NOT turn or twist the wire or terminal during insertion.
!
4. Pivot the latch arm away from the yoke to open the head.
5. Place the terminal in the stationary die.
6. Holding the terminal in place, pivot the yoke and latch arm toward each other until the locking flange
secures the latch arm to the yoke.
CAUTION
Always make sure the yoke and latch arm are secured by the locking flange before cycling the tool to crimp the
product.
!
7. Holding the wire in place, activate the tool to complete the crimp.
8. When the crimp is completed, pivot the latch arm away from the yoke to open the head and remove
the terminal.
NOTE
If the terminal sticks in the die after crimping, apply a rocking action to the terminal to remove it from the die. Wipe
light oil on the dies to prevent sticking, or use spray dry lubricant.
i
NOTE
If it is necessary to retract the ram before a crimping cycle is completed, push the release switch. Pushing the release
switch will result in the complete retraction of the ram. Only kits 1901343 --1 and --2 have a release switch.
i
CAUTION
This tool is not designed for continuous operation. After 100 cycles, allow the crimp tool to cool for 15 minutes.
