Hand Crimping Tool 90017-3 27 SEP 11 Rev B

PROPER USE GUIDELINES

Cumulative Trauma Disorders can result from the prolonged use of manually powered hand tools. Hand tools are intended for occasional use

and low volume applications. A wide selection of powered application equipment for extended-use, production operations is available.

1. INTRODUCTION

Hand Crimping Tool 90017-3 is designed to crimp the

AMP-LEAF* loose-piece (LP) contacts listed in Figure

2. Contacts with the anti-tangling feature MUST be

crimped in this tool. Read these instructions

thoroughly before crimping any contacts.

NOTE

Measurements are in millimeters [followed by inch

equivalents in brackets]. Figures and illustrations

are for identification only and are not drawn to

scale.

Reasons for reissue of this instruction sheet are

provided in Section 6, REVISION SUMMARY.

2. DESCRIPTION

This tool features two fixed dies (crimpers), two

movable dies (anvils), a contact locator, a contact

support, a wire stop, two green color code dots, and a

tool ratchet.

The contact locator positions the contact between the

crimping dies. In use, it rests in the contact locator slot.

See Figures 2 and 3.

The contact support prevents the contact from

bending during the crimping procedure. The wire stop

aids in locating the wire in the contact.

The green color code dots on the BACK of the tool

indicate the wire range of the tool crimp sections.

Notice that the applicable loose-piece contacts have a

green color dot on the bottom side. See Figures 2 

and 3.

The ratchet ensures full crimping of the contact. Once

engaged, the ratchet will not release until the tool

handles have been fully closed.

CAUTION

The crimping dies bottom before the ratchet

releases. This is a design feature that ensures

maximum electrical and tensile performance of the

crimp. Do NOT re-adjust the ratchet.

3. CRIMPING PROCEDURE

Refer to Figure 2 and select wire within the specified

wire size and insulation diameter. If using two wires,

note that the combined insulation diameter must not

exceed 3.05 [.120]. Strip the wire(s) to the length

indicated - do not cut or nick the wire strands.

Notice that each crimp section has the applicable wire

size stamped above it. Use this marking and the wire

size that you are using to determine the proper crimp

section.

Select the applicable loose-piece contact with a green

color dot and proceed as follows:

1. Hold the tool so that the back (wire side) is 

facing you.

2. Make sure that the ratchet is released. Squeeze

the tool handles together and allow them to open

fully.

3. Looking straight into the back of the tool, insert

the contact (insulation barrel first) into the front of

the appropriate crimp section. See Figure 3.

4. Position the contact in the crimpers so that the

locator enters the locator slot in the contact.

5. Hold the contact in this position and squeeze the

tool handles together until the insulation anvil starts

entry into the insulation crimper. Do NOT deform the

insulation barrel or wire barrel.

6. Insert a properly-stripped wire through the wire

slot of the locator and into the wire barrel of the

contact until the wire butts against the wire stop.

7. While holding the wire in place, squeeze the tool

handles together until the ratchet releases.

8. Allow the tool handles to open fully and remove

the crimped contact.

NOTE

Check that the proper crimp code dot(s) appear on

the bottom of the wire barrel. See Figure 2.

4. MAINTENANCE/INSPECTION

4.1. Daily Maintenance

Remove all foreign particles with a clean, soft brush or

a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Make sure the proper

retaining pins are in place and are secured with the

proper retaining rings. If foreign matter cannot be

removed easily, or if the proper replacement parts are

not available, return the tool to your supervisor.

Make sure all pivot points and bearing surfaces are

protected with a thin coat of any good SAE 20 motor

oil. Do NOT oil excessively. When the tool is not in

use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from

becoming lodged between the dies, and store the tool

in a clean, dry area.

4.2. Periodic Inspection

Regular inspection should be performed by quality

control personnel. A record of scheduled inspections

should remain with the tool and/or be supplied to the

supervisory personnel responsible for the tool. Though

recommendations call for at least one inspection a

408-7622

3of 4

Rev B

month, the inspection frequency should be based on

the amount of use, ambient working conditions,

operator training and skill, and established company

standards. These inspections should be performed in

the following sequence:

A. Visual Inspection

1. Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by

immersing the tool (handles partially closed) into a

suitable degreaser that will not affect paint or plastic

material.

2. Make certain all retaining pins are in place and

are secured with the proper retaining rings. If

replacements are necessary, refer to Figure 5.

3. Close the tool handles until the ratchet releases,

and then allow the handles to open freely. If they do

not open quickly and fully, then the spring is

defective and must be replaced (see Section 5,

REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR).

4. Inspect the tool, with special emphasis on

checking for worn, cracked, or broken crimping

dies. If damage to any part of the head is evident,

return the tool for evaluation and repair (see Section

5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR).

B. Crimp Height Inspection

Crimp height inspection is performed through the

use of a micrometer with a modified anvil,

commonly referred to as a crimp height comparator. 

TE does not market crimp height comparators.

Refer to Instruction Sheet 408-7424 for detailed

information on obtaining and using a crimp height

comparator.

Proceed as follows:

1. Refer to the chart in Figure 4 and select a contact

and a wire (maximum size) for each crimp section.

2. Refer to Section 3, CRIMPING PROCEDURE,

and crimp the contact(s) accordingly.

3. Using a crimp height comparator, measure the

wire barrel crimp height as shown in Figure 4. If the

crimp height conforms to that shown in the chart,

the tool is considered dimensionally correct. If not,

return the tool for evaluation and repair (refer to

Section 5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR).

C. Ratchet Inspection

Obtain a 0.025-mm [.001-in.] shim that is suitable for

checking the clearance between the bottoming

surfaces of the crimping dies. Proceed as follows:

1. Select a contact and maximum size wire for the

hand tool.

2. Position the contact and wire between the

crimping dies, as described in Section 3,

CRIMPING PROCEDURE.

3. Holding the wire in place, squeeze the tool

handles together until the CERTI-CRIMP ratchet

releases. Hold the handles in this position,

maintaining just enough tension to keep the dies

closed.

4. Check the clearance between the bottoming

surfaces of the crimping dies. If the clearance is

0.025 [.001] or less, the ratchet is satisfactory. If the

clearance exceeds 0.025 [.001], the ratchet is out of

adjustment and must be repaired.

If the tool conforms to these inspection procedures,

lubricate it with a thin coat of any good SAE 20 motor

oil and return it to service.

5. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR

The parts listed in Figure 5 are customer- replaceable.

A complete inventory can be stocked and controlled to

prevent lost time when replacement of parts is

necessary. Order replacement parts through your 
