CAUTION
Be careful not to over-extend the locking ramp. If the
end of the locking ramp is raised too much, it will NOT
return to its original position; and the receptacle housing
must be discarded.
5. While holding the locking ramp in position, gently
pull back on the wire until the contact is free. See
Figure 3. If the contact does not pull out freely, push
it back into the receptacle housing, and repeat the
extraction procedure.
CAUTION
DO NOT pull the wire in a harsh manner. If the locking
ramp is not raised enough to clear the contact locking
window, the locking ramp will be cut or sheared (see
Figure 3). If the locking ramp is cut or sheared, discard
the receptacle housing. The contacts may be removed
and re-used.
CAUTION
DO NOT raise the locking ramp to check for damage;
instead, after inserting a contact into that contact cavity,
pull back on the wire to ensure that the locking ramp has
engaged the contact locking window. If the contact pulls
out, the locking ramp has been damaged.
4. REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR
The contacts, receptacle housing, and contact retainer
are not repairable. DO NOT used damaged or
defective product.
