Cam Lever Replacement
1 Make sure that the cam lever is in the
shipping position (unmated) (the back of the
cam lever must be under the cam lever lock).

2 Insert the tip of a flat blade screwdriver (or
similar tool) between the connector body
and the end of either arm of the cam lever;
then twist the tool slightly so that the
detent releases the arm.
Repeat this step for the other arm of the
cam lever; then remove the cam lever
from the connector.
3 If present, remove any debris from the detent
using a vacuum-or hold the connector so
that the red TPA faces up (to prevent debris
from falling onto the purple peripheral seal
located below the detent) and use a brush to
remove the debris. If necessary, use a
vacuum to remove any debris from the seal.
