2. DESCRIPTION
The extraction tool consists of a plastic handle, and a
steel blade tool tip with a chamfer. When properly
inserted into the housing contact cavity, the tool tip
functions as a latch release, depressing the locking
lance to allow the contact to be removed from the
housing.
3. EXTRACTION PROCEDURE (Figure 2)
1. Align the tip of the tool with the appropriate
contact cavity on the mating face of the housing.
Position the tip so that the chamfer is facing the
top of the contact cavity.
2. Hold wire, and gently insert tool tip into the
contact cavity until the tip is positioned under the
locking lance.
3. Push down gently on the tool handle to release
the contact locking lance from its locking surface.
Pull back on the wire to remove contact from the
wire--entry end of the housing.
CAUTION
!
DO NOT use excessive force when extracting
contact from cavity. If you experience difficulty in
removing the contact, re- insert the tool tip,
making sure the tip is properly positioned in the
cavity, and try again.
