2. DESCRIPTION
Figure 2
Each tool features a specific number of tool blades
that release the contact locking lances of the
connector. See Figure 1. The number of tool blades
must match the number of cavities in one row of the
connector.
Proceed as follows:
1. Align the tool blades with the locking lance
slots located between the contacts and outer
edge of the housing as shown in Figure 1.
All contact locking lances must be released
CAUTION
simultaneously; otherwise, damage to the
connector, contacts, or cable may result.
2. Simultaneously insert all tool blades straight
into the connector until the tool bottoms. Only the
radius between the tool blades should be visible
when the tool is properly seated. See Figure 3.

3. EXTRACTION PROCEDURE
3. Holding the tool and connector in one hand,
carefully pull on the cable. A slight side-to-side
motion may be used to ease contact extraction.
Refer to Figure 2, and ensure that the number of
blades of the extraction tool matches the number of
contact cavities in one row of the connector.
