Insertion of Contact
1. Before loading contacts into the housing, verify
that there are no incomplete crimps and then
place the contact with the locking lever facing
upward as shown in Fig.1 and insert the contact
straight until it stops at the end of housing cavity.
If the contact is not easily seated in housing, do
not force it, but make sure that it is going in the
right direction.
Terminals forced in backwards can accidentally
scrape the housing lance off.
2. Verify that the terminal has been firmly locked to
the housing lance. If the crimp is located at the
center of the retainer during contact mounting as
shown in Fig.2, contact locking is not engaged
rightly, causing the contact to slip out. Push the
contact into the lance as shown in Fig.3. Locking it
to the housing lance correctly will make a clicking
sound.
After inserting the contact in place, check it by
pulling the wire backward. Whenever the contact
has to be removed for remounting, use the
specified pulling tools.
