FEATURES
 Quick-change tool head for the 19 79-0001 (AT- 00)
 Tooling kit is interchangeable with other kits in the 64001 and 64003 Series
 A precision user-friendly terminal locator wire stop holds terminals in the proper crimping position
 Pneumatic powered crimp tools help reduce fatigue and discomfort from repetitive manual crimping
SCOPE
Products: Krimptite™ Flag Ring and Spade Terminals, 14–16 AWG. This tool head is intended for use in the
19 79-0001 (AT- 00) either hand held or with optional bench adapter 19078-0307 (ATBA) and foot switch.
Testing
Mec anical
The tensile test, or pull test, is a means of evaluating the mechanical properties of the crimped connections.
The following charts show the UL specifications for various wire sizes. The tensile strength is shown in
pounds and indicates the minimum acceptable force to break or separate the terminal from the conductor.

Operation
Refer to the instruction manual for the 19 79-0001 (AT- 00) for mounting this crimp tool
head.
Crimping Terminals
1. Slip the ring or spade of the flag terminal under the locator tab and center the
terminal barrel into the conductor punch of the lower jaw. Make sure the open side
of the barrel is facing down. See Figure 1.
Caution: Never operate this tool without the supplied safety shield in place. Never place fingers in the
tool nests.
. Insert the properly stripped wire into the terminal barrel. See Figure 3.
3. Push on the wire to assure it is fully seated in the terminal. See Figure and 3. Cycle the tool.
4. Remove the crimped terminal. Inspect for proper crimp.
Note: Whenever crimping without the locator, make sure the seam of the terminal is oriented up or down
in the tool if using unbrazed product, as this will provide higher pull force values.

Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of,
and responsible for, the following maintenance steps:
1. Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a clean
brush, or soft, lint-free cloth.
. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool.
3. Make certain all pins, pivot points and bearing surfaces are
protected with a thin coat of high quality machine oil. Do not oil
excessively. This tool was engineered for durability, but like any
fine piece of equipment it needs cleaning and lubrication for a
maximum service life of trouble-free crimping. Use a light oil
such as 30 weight automotive oil at the oil points shown in
Figure 4, every 5,000 crimps or monthly will significantly enhance the tool life and ensure a stable
calibration.
4. When tool is not in use store the tool in a clean, dry area.
Tool Calibration
A Certificate of Calibration (see last page) was supplied with the tool. To recalibrate this tool, measurements
should be taken from each conductor nest and compared to this chart. The tool should be lubricated prior to
recalibration to ensure consistent measurements.
