ABSTRACT:
A tool is disclosed for terminating conductors of a cable to insulation displacement contacts of terminals that are partially assembled to a connector housing. After termination of all of the terminals the assembly is removed from the tool and the entire strip of terminals is fully inserted into the connector housing and the carrier strip removed and discarded. The tool includes an insertion blade attached to a reciprocating ram for effecting the termination and a terminal strip feed mechanism. A comb mechanism is coupled to the insertion blade and interacts with camming surfaces fixed to the frame to engage and align the conductor between the insertion blade and the terminal by means of a combing action. The comb mechanism engages the conductor at a point away from the end thereof and then moves toward the end thereby moving the conductor into the desired alignment.
