Soldering or crimping conductors to contacts is recommended before insertion into connector.
If crimping, use hand or pneumatic crimp tool with crimp positioner per contact size.
If soldering after contacts are inserted in the connector, limit exposure of contacts to soldering iron
temperature to 4 sec. maximum. Soldering iron temperature should not exceed 650°F (343°C).
Insert wired contacts into connector housing using an insertion tool and per contacts arrangements.
Align coupling ring over housing and bring forward.
Align cable-clamp/grommet on the rear of housing. Make certain grommet is completely inside
the cable-clamp in the nal position.
Bring forward and thread handle onto housing until tight. Do not exceed 2 in-lb torque.
