1. ASSEMBLY
1. Crimp the contacts following the guidelines given in SAE AS39029, “General Specification for
Contacts and Electrical Connectors”, then insert the contacts into the receptacle contact cavities.
2. Refer to Figure 2 and ensure that the panel gasket is compatible with the receptacle size and panel
thickness. The number of panel gasket identifiers corresponds to the panel thickness. If it is not
compatible:
a. From the mating face of the receptacle, pull the panel gasket from the receptacle.
b. Choose the appropriate panel gasket. Refer to Figure 2.
c. With the back (side without pads) of the panel gasket facing the mating face of the receptacle,
align the panel gasket identifiers with the receptacle panel latch (on top or bottom), then slide the
panel gasket onto the receptacle and hook the back over the receptacle flange. See Figure 2.

4. From the back of the panel, align the receptacle mating face with the cutout so that the mating latch
faces the bottom of the panel cutout, then insert the receptacle into the cutout until the panel latches
snap into the panel cutout. Ensure that all panel gasket pads are against the panel. See Figure 4.

In order for the release button of the plug to face the top of the panel cutout, the receptacle mating latch must face the bottom
of the panel cutout when the receptacle is mounted to the panel.
