ABSTRACT:
A terminal applicator (50) for attaching electrical terminals (52) to a wire includes a terminal hold down device (90) for limiting movement of the terminal during the crimping process. The hold down device (90) includes a hold down arm (92), a pair of guide rods (102), and a removable standoff (130). The guide rods (102) are carried by a reciprocating ram (68) and are arranged so that when the standoff abuts a travel limit block (148) the hold down arm remains in close proximity to the terminal while the ram (68) continues its motion to complete the crimping cycle.
