1. INTRODUCTION
Removal Kits 2215042-[ ] are designed to remove STRADA-Whisper receptacles from printed circuit (pc)
boards. Refer to Figure 1.
Read and understand these instructions before using the removal tools.
2. DESCRIPTION
Each kit consists of two clamp subassemblies, a pusher subassembly, a guide module pusher plate, two
pusher plate shims, and four pusher plate mounting screws. The clamp subassemblies consist of a front clamp
plate, a rear clamp plate, and a clamp knob. The pusher subassembly consists of a top plate, two pusher
plates, and a removal knob. The clamp subassembly clamps the receptacle while the pusher subassembly
removes the receptacle from the pc board. The guide module pusher plate is used when the receptacle is
adjacent to a guide module, and the pusher plate shims are used depending on the width of the receptacle.
3. OPERATION
3.1. Tool Preparation
To prepare the removal tool, know the dimension of the receptacle (number of rows and columns) and the
placement of the receptacle (what is next to the receptacle). Once these conditions are determined, the tool
can be prepared to remove the receptacle.
To prepare the tool:
1. Select the kit part number to be used based on the receptacle part number or size.
2. Select the proper clamp subassembly for the receptacle part number or size.
3. Determine if shims are necessary and install as needed. See Figure 2 for shim placement.
4. Select the proper side pusher plate orientation, or select the guide module pusher plate, and install the
side pusher plates.
Refer to Figure 2 for pusher plate orientation.
