Removal
Preset the shield removal tool so the retention grippers are fully extended and there is no debris in the area shown in
Figure 5-4. Insert the tip of the removal tool into the connector with the grippers over the shield to be removed. Be
careful not to damage the metallic parts in the connector. Insert a 5/16“ T-handle (not supplied with this tool) into the
socket head screw on the top of the tool, (See Figure 5-5) and rotate clockwise until the tool grips the shield. Then
continue to turn the T-handle one complete rotation. Remove the tool and shield by lifting vertically from the
connector. Remove the shield from the tool by rotating the socket head screw counter-clockwise three complete
turns.
Replacement
To install a replacement shield, use the appropriate signal insertion module for the connector being repaired. The
shields must be installed with the protruding stiffening ribs facing away from the backplane notch on the connector
housing. See Figure5-6. Preload the shield in its proper location and then load the insertion module. Gently tap the
top of the insertion module with the plastic hammer until the shield is fully seated.
