NOTE
i
The cable must be cut 90_ (refer to Application
Specification 114- 25029 for tolerance) to the
edge of the cable; otherwise, an improper
termination will result. It is suggested that a
guillotine- type cable cutter be used, such as
Carpenter Model 95, which can be purchased
from: Carpenter Manufacturing Co., Inc.

Cable assemblies manufactured by TE contain
ribbon cable meeting the requirements of
Drawing 57013 (solid conductors) or Drawing
57131 (stranded conductors). The receptacle
connectors are available in various sizes from 20
to 100 positions. If you choose to assemble your
own cable assemblies using these connectors, it
is recommended using a cable of equal or
superior quality.
4. INSTALLATION AND SETUP
4.1. Installation
These procedures are typical for the manual arbor
frame assembly and the pneumatic auto--cycle unit.
Before installing the connector--specific kit, install the
base assembly universal arbor tool onto the frame
assembly as described in 408--9875.
DANGER ^{When using the pneumatic auto- cycle unit,}
DISCONNECT the air from the main air valve.
1. Slide the upper tool onto the upper tool mount
as shown in Figure 3.
2. Slide the lower insert into the slot of the lower
tooling assembly and secure it with the two
setscrews. See Figure 3.
3. Install the locators onto the lower insert as
shown in Figure 3. Secure the locators with the
socket head cap screws just enough to hold them
in place.
4. Install the cable stop (supplied with the
connector--specific kit) onto the lower tooling
assembly as shown in Figure 3. Secure the cable
stop with the thumbscrew after it is properly
positioned.

4.2. Setup
1. Open the cable clamp assembly.
2. Slide the cable through the connector; then
insert the connector (cover up) into the lower insert
and between the locators. See Figure 4.
3. Position the cable so that the cable end is
positioned against the cable stop and the cable
conductors are positioned in the flutes of the fluted
plate.
NOTE
i
The cable conductors must stay in the same
flutes for the entire length of the fluted plate.
4. Slide locators against the connector; then
secure the locators with the socket head cap
screws. The connector must fit securely between
the locators, as shown in Figure 4.
