4. Though the Atlantic and Pacific applicator ram and base plate interfaces are different, most of the
OCEAN 2.0 features and adjustments are the same.
The terminal strip must be fed into the applicator with the wire barrels facing out; between the Front
(outer) and Rear (inner) Strip Guides. The terminal strip passes the Stock Drag, and the lead terminal
is positioned 1) over the Anvil for pre-feed applicators, or 2) one terminal length from the Anvil for
post-feed applicators. The Feed Pawl will feed one terminal during each cycle of the machine. The
Ram Post (also referred to as the Ram Mounting Post) will engage the Post Adapter of the machine
ram, and the machine ram will actuate the applicator.
The Wire Crimp Disc is located just below the ram post interface, which is designed with a spring-
loaded adjustment mechanism for precise crimp height adjustment in increments of 0.01 mm [.0004
in.]; with a total adjustment range of 1.45 mm [0.057 in.]. By rotating the Wire Crimp Disc, the ram
interface raises and lowers relative to the applicator housing. The indicator notch of the ram points to
the numbers on the outer diameter of the Wire Crimp Disc, indicating a relative crimp height.
The Wire Crimper is held in a pre-set position by the Ram and the Crimper Bolt. The Insulation
Crimper and the Front Shear Depressor are also held by the Crimper Bolt. The Insulation Crimper is
free to move up and down so the insulation crimp height can be adjusted via the Insulation Crimp Dial
by pulling the spring-loaded dial outward slightly and rotating to a different number.
The applicator mounting surface is the base plate. The Anvil, Front Shear Holder, Terminal Support,
Strip Guide Plate, and applicator housing are mounted on the base plate. The Stock Drag, and Front
and Rear Strip Guides are mounted on the Strip Guide Plate.
Terminals with dual-carrier strips
When terminals with dual-carrier strips are to be processed, an additional Shear Depressor, Rear
Shear Holder, and Rear Floating Shear are required. The Rear Shear Depressor will push the Rear
Floating Shear down to cut the terminal from the rear carrier strip and the Terminal Hold-Down will
keep the terminal from raising during the crimping and shearing process. The Rear Floating Shear
and Rear Shear Holder are mounted on the base plate.

5. Lubrication
Some terminal strips require the use of a terminal lubricant. Wick-type lubricators apply lubricant to the
terminal strip as it feeds into the applicator. Terminal lubricants reduce tooling wear and help reduce
damage to the plating on some terminals.
OCEAN applicator, Side-Feed Lubricator Assembly PN 2119955-1 is available.
For rear-carrier style terminals, Lubricator Assembly PN 2119955-5 is available.
CAUTION
Depending on the final use of the crimped terminal, terminal lubrication is not always recommended. To determine if your
applications warrant the use of a terminal lubricator, contact your Field Representative.
NOTE
If your application warrants the use of a terminal lubricator, the recommended lubricant is Stoner Mechanical Lubricant E807
available from Stoner, Inc. Call 1-800-227-5538 or visit www.stonersolutions.com.
Applicator with Mechanical Feed System
With a Mechanical Feed applicator, the terminals are fed by the action of the Feed Cam and a series of rods
and levers, which move the Feed Pawl. Two feed cams are available (Pre-Feed and Post Feed) and can be
mounted in two different mounting holes depending on machine stroke length and feed type (see Figure 7).
The Post-Feed feed cam advances the lead terminal over the Anvil on the downward stroke of the ram
assembly; leaving the Anvil clear when the machine is at rest.
The Pre-Feed feed cam advances the lead terminal over the Anvil on the upward stroke of the ram assembly;
leaving a terminal over the Anvil when the machine is at rest.
NOTE
When not in use, the spare Feed Cam can be mounted to the applicator housing in the spare feed cam storage location (see
Figure 8).
NOTE
Pacific applicators can only be used with 30-mm stroke machines and, therefore, only have the 30-mm feed cam mounting
positions on the applicator ram.

Applicator with Air Feed System
NOTE
The air supply connection (shown in Figure 2) must be connected to an air supply line providing continuous pressure of 5.00 to
6.00 bars [72 to 87 psi] at the applicator.
NOTE
NO oil lubrication of air for the OCEAN Air Feed module is required after receiving and use within a production environment.
The ram continues downward, completes the crimping action, and starts back up. As it approaches the fully
raised position, the push rod drops off the high portion of the ram mounted cam, shifting the air feed valve. The
extend side of the cylinder is then filled, moving the feed pawl and terminal strip over the anvil for the next
cycle. The exhaust control valves control the speed of the feed stroke and retract stroke.
Though all air feeds are pre-feed type, the feed cam position can be changed for use in different stroke
machines: 40-mm [15/8-in.] stroke or 30-mm [11/8-in.] stroke (refer to Figures 7 and 9).
Note that the air feed requires a different cam than the mechanical pre-feed or post-feed.

3. APPLICATOR INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, make sure the power and air source to the machine is turned OFF and power cord/air supply are
disconnected before installing or removing the applicator.
NOTE
Always remove the Ram Transportation Collar after installing the applicator on a machine and be sure to install the Ram
Transportation Collar back onto the applicator ram just prior to removing the applicator from the machine.
NOTE
With the applicator in the machine, never attempt to cycle machine under power without terminals properly loaded, as
described in Section 4; otherwise, the tooling may be damaged.
DANGER
To avoid personal injury, the applicator should be used only in an appropriate terminating machine. The pressurized air supply
should only be connected after the applicator is properly installed in the terminating machine.

NOTE
Adjustment of the Stripper may be required when moving the applicator between bench and leadmaker applications.
4. APPLICATOR LOADING AND UNLOADING
Terminal Strip Loading
NOTE
Before loading the terminal strip in applicator, make sure the installed applicator is the right one for the terminal to be applied.
Compare the terminal part number on the reel with the numbers listed on the applicator print.
1. Turn off and disconnect the power to the machine.
2. Make sure the ram assembly is all the way up. If necessary, hand-cycle the machine to raise the Ram.
Refer to the applicable 409 Series Customer Manual.
3. Remove the applicator guard assembly.
4. Raise the Stock Drag by turning the Drag Release Lever upward. Remove a length of the terminal
strip left in the applicator by grasping the terminals at the strip guide entry, raising the Feed Pawl, and
pulling the strip straight out of the applicator (see Figure 10).
5. With the reel of terminals installed on the Reel Support, feed the terminal strip into the applicator
between the Strip Guides.
NOTE
Make sure the terminal strip enters the Strip Guides with the terminal open-side up and the wire barrel end toward the Stock
drag.
6. Raise the Feed Pawl and continue to feed the terminal strip until the lead terminal is over the Anvil
and the Feed Pawl engages the hole in the carrier strip.

7. If terminals are post-feed, lift the Feed Pawl and pull the strip back one terminal length (the lead
terminal will then be moved over the Anvil on the downward stroke of the ram assembly).
8. Turn the Drag Release Lever downward to lower the Stock Drag.
9. Make sure the tip of the Feed Pawl is in the feed hole in the carrier strip.
NOTE
Some carrier strips have additional holes which are not used for feed purposes.
10. Hand-cycle the machine several times to make sure the applicator is properly adjusted as described in
Section 5.
11. Re-install the applicator guard assembly.
Terminal Strip Unloading
1. Cut the terminal strip one or two terminals from the end of the applicator.
NOTE
The applicator should never be unloaded unnecessarily. A section of terminal strip should always be left in the unit. Since it is
not necessary to remove the strip section for cleaning, lubrication, or repair, it should only be removed as a part of the loading
procedure.
2. If terminals are post-feed, turn the Drag Release Lever upward to raise the Stock Drag, lift the Feed
Pawl, and move the lead terminal over the Anvil.
5. ADJUSTMENTS
Wire Crimp
A. Crimp Height
1. The wire crimp is adjustable by rotating the Wire Crimp Disc from 0 (largest crimp height) to 14.5
(smallest crimp height) in increments of .01 mm [.0004 in.].
2. Select a crimp height reference setting number from 0 (largest crimp height) to 14.5 (smallest crimp
height) from the applicator print for the wire size to be used.
3. Turn the Wire Crimp Disc to line up with the specified crimp height reference setting number with the
indicator notch/cut out on the front of the Ram (see Figure 11).
4. Turn the Wire Crimp Disc clockwise to decrease the crimp height and turn the Wire Crimp Disc
counterclockwise to increase the crimp height. Each increment represents a change in crimp height of
0.01 mm [.0004 in.].

5. Make the insulation crimp adjustment described in Paragraph 5.2, then make several test cycles and
inspect the terminations closely. Look for rough or sharp edges around the crimped barrels (flash),
deformed crimps, bent terminals, or other defects caused by worn or broken tooling. If necessary,
replace tooling as described in Section 6.
—If the terminations appear normal, measure the crimp height of each termination as described in Instruction Sheet 408-
7424, packaged with the applicator. The crimp height must agree with the measurement specified on the applicator print
for the wire size being used. Record crimp height dimensions for reference.
—If the crimp height is incorrect, remove the applicator, and install one that is known to produce terminations of correct
crimp height. Make several test cycles and repeat the inspection. If the crimp height is incorrect for this applicator, the
problem is the machine shut height, and corrective information can be found in the applicable 409 Series Customer
Manual. If the crimp height is correct, the problem is in the original applicator, and refer to Paragraph 6.7; Adjustable
Crimp Height Repair, for corrective measures.
6. During extensive operation, periodically inspect the terminals as described in Step 4 to make sure the
applicator is producing correct terminations.
B. Wire Crimp Adjust Lock Position
1. The wire crimp height adjusts can be locked in position by changing the Detent Pin orientation (see
Figure 12).
Verify the setup dimension (distance from Crimper Seating Feature on the Ram) to the top of the
Crimp Height Adjust Head (see Figure 13).
NOTE
This distance is also provided on the Applicator Print.
Hold down the spring-loaded Detent Pin and turn the Adjust Head out of the Ram until the Detent
Pin can be removed.
DANGER
The spring-loaded pin can injure if released unexpectedly.
Invert the pin so the locking end will contact the Detent Plate and re-install the pin and spring.
While holding the pin down, turn the Adjust Head until the proper set-up dimension is reached.
Verify the crimp height as shown in Paragraph 5.1.A.
CAUTION
When changing crimp height while in the locked orientation, the spring-loaded Detent Pin must be depressed to rotate the
number ring, or damage will occur.
