Assembly Instructions

Preparing the Cable

Align the cable with the guide marked STRIP GAUGE on the side of

the Connector, strip 7 to 8 mm of the cable sheath, and then twist the

wires several times.

Connecting the Cable to the Connector

1. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to push down the operating lever

inside the operation slot until it locks.

2. Insert the wire fully to the back of the wire insertion hole. Make

sure that the cable sheath is inserted into the hole, and that the

end of the wire has passed through the contact section.

3. Insert the screwdriver into the release slot, and gently pull back

the lever until a click is heard by resetting the lever.

4.

Make sure that the following operations have been performed.

• Check that the operating lever is reset.

• Check that the procedure in step 2 has been

followed. (Pull

gently on the cable to make sure that there is resistance, indicat-

ing that the Connectors are wired correctly.)

Removing Cables from the Connector

1. Press down on the operating lever to lock the lever before remov-

ing the cable.

2. After removing the cable from the Connector, always reset the

operating lever, except when rewiring the Connector. The Con-

nector can be rewired without resetting the operating lever.
