2. Position the clear cover (bottom facing upward) as
shown in Figure 2. (Cover for 4 latch 10 AWG
connector shown).
3. Position wires into locator slots. Be certain to
place the black wire in the slot marked BLK, green
or bare wire in slot marked GRD, and the white
wire in the slot marked WHT. Upon final
positioning of all wires, be certain the end of the
cable jacket is rolled into the integral strain relief
slot and is a minimum of .06” past the second
strain relief rib as shown in Figure 2.
4. For connectors with 4 latches, position the housing assembly over the cover with the ribs in the
housing aligned between the latches as shown in Figure 3A. Then push the two halves together until
the locking tabs engage as shown in Figure 4A. For the hinged connectors, position the hinge pins
on the housing assembly into the mating holes in the cover as shown in Figure 3B. Then press down
until both lock into place as shown in Figure 4B.
5. Close the strain relief cover and housing by hand. Place assembly into Molex tool as shown in
Figure 5 for connector with 4 latches or Figure 6 for the hinged connector. Squeeze the tool until
the connector bottoms out and the locking latches engage on both sides. OR alternately,
squeeze the top and bottom closed with tongue and groove (slip joint) pliers as shown in Figure 7
(Hinged connector assembly shown). Pliers must be a minimum of 10" long. Squeeze firmly on
both sides, squarely across the connector between ribs A and B to ensure wires seat completely
into slots.
