5. RECOMMENDED SOLDERING TECHNIQUES
(Use rosin ux solder only). Wrap cable strands, melt solder into well; heat and insert stripped
cable. Continue heating well until solder ows into wire being careful not to over ow onto
contact surfaces. DO NOT SOLDER DIP CONTACTS when contacts are soldered to
unsupported lead. Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc. requires use of cable clamps, listed in table below.
6. CABLE / CONTACT & HOUSING ASSEMBLY
Observing polarity of markings, push each contact into rear of housing until notched side snaps
over spring, tug on cable to make sure contact is locked into place.
DISASSEMBLING CONNECTORS
Switch off power rst. Remove contact by depressing spring with a small at blade screwdriver
and pulling lightly on the cable.
CAUTION: Replace contacts individually on battery leads to reduce potential danger of shorting.

Contains two each of: housings, contacts, retaining pins, & cable ties.
1. Single conductors use #12 to #18 AWG wire only. Strip to 0.31 inch (7.9mm) off end of insulation.
2. Twin conductor cable #12 to #18. Strip back outer jacket 5.50 inches (139 mm). (See illustration).
Then strip conductor insulation as in 1.
3a. To crimp: use the recommended tool. Crimping by other means may disturb contact position in
housing and or produce high resistance joints.
3b. To Solder: Not recommended.
4. Thread or push one or two auxiliary contacts and wires through the rear of the connector before
inserting into auxiliary housings. Push into auxiliary housings through rear until notched side of
contact tip snaps over spring. Tug wires to make sure wires are secure.
5. Slide two auxiliary Powerpole housings together by dovetails to stack vertically. They cannot be
inserted separately into SBE/SBO housing. The rear of each of the Powerpole housings must
be ush.
6. Slide stacked auxiliaries back into connector housing until seated. The male dovetail should be
on top as shown in Figure 1. Make sure side grooves of auxiliaries are aligned for retaining pins
