Setting up the machine

The machine has to be set up in the following situations:
– If a different type of wire-end ferrule has to be processed
– Every time the machine is put into operation
If you want to switch to another type of wire-end ferrule,
you must first remove all of the wire-end ferrules still in the
crimping unit. To do this, please proceed as follows:
► Remove the wire-end ferrule reel.
► Continue to insert the used wire into the machine until
the wire is only stripped.
Now all wire-end ferrules are removed from the inside of
the crimping unit.
During set-up, the following settings must be checked and
adjusted if necessary:
– Wire-end ferrule role
– Ferrule cross section
– Only RS: Crimp length at four positions (s. section 5.3)
The machine must be switched off for setting up.
The adjustment table on the inner side of the front plate
shows the required settings for the various ferrule variants.
