DANGER
To avoid personal injury, be sure to follow all local
safety practices when using solder and solder
STOP
equipment.
8. Solder according to the connector specific
instructions.
NOTE
i
Fixture should be clamped vertically in vise to keep
housing seated against locator tool.
6.2. Using Type B Locating Tools
The solder assembly kit contains two Type B locator
tools. These tools are used to confine the connector
dielectric, which aids in providing proper cable seating
when soldering to flexible cable. To insure proper
connector assembly, follow connector specific
instructions.
7. USING DIELECTRIC TOOLS
Solder Assembly Kit 1055466-1 contains three
dielectric tools. Two dielectric (insertion) tools are
used to insert the dielectric bushing into the connector
housing. The dielectric (recess) tool is used to
compress expanded cable dielectric after soldering
semi-rigid coaxial cable to the connector housing, if
required.
Use the following instruction to press the dielectric
bushing into the connector subassembly.
1. Thread the insertion tool into connector
subassembly.
2. Insert the dielectric into insertion tool housing.
3. Place insertion tool plunger into position.
4. Press the plunger until the flange bottoms on the
tool housing.
8. USING LOCKING RING PLIERS
The locking ring pliers are used to compress the
retaining ring, allowing installation of the coupling nut
on specific connectors. Use the pliers as follows:
1. Place retaining ring (and gasket) on connector
housing.
2. Compress the retaining ring with the retaining
ring pliers.
3. Push coupling nut on to housing and over the
retaining ring.
4. Check to make sure the coupling nut rotates
freely after the retaining ring is in place.
9. REVISION SUMMARY
Since the previous release of this document, the new
company logo was applied.
