1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet covers the installation and setup
procedures for Connector-Specific Kit 1490479-1. The
connector-specific kit is used in conjunction with Base
Assembly Universal Arbor Tool 768338-4 and Manual
Arbor Frame Assembly 91085-2 (see Figure 1), or
Pneumatic Auto-Cycle Unit 91112-3 to terminate
0.64 mm [.025 in.] Plug and Receptacle Connectors to
0.64 mm [.025 in.] centerline flat ribbon cable.
Refer to Instruction Sheets 408-7777 (supplied with
Manual Arbor Frame Assembly) and 408-6732
(supplied with Pneumatic Auto-Cycle Unit) for tooling
information. Installation and termination procedures
for the Base Assembly Universal Arbor Tool are
available in Instruction Sheet 408-4201.
Dimensions on this sheet are in millimeters
[followed by inches in brackets]. Figures and
illustrations are for reference only and are not
drawn to scale.
2. DESCRIPTION (Figure 1)
The connector-specific kit features a lower insert and
two locators. The lower insert and locators properly
align the connector for termination.

3. INSTALLATION AND SETUP OF
CONNECTOR -SPECIFIC KIT
3.1. Installation
These procedures are typical for the manual arbor
frame assembly and the pneumatic auto-cycle unit.
1. Loosen the two socket head cap screws that
secure the locators onto the lower insert.
2. Place the connector between the locators and
slide the locators against the connector; then
secure the locators by fully tightening the socket
head cap screws.
Depending on which style connector is being
terminated the connector will rest on either the
mating face of the connector on the bottom of the
slot that is in the lower insert; or the shoulders of
the connectors will rest on the step of the lower
insert, as shown in Figure 3.
When locating the connector in the lower insert be
sure to center the connector as much as possible.
3. When the locators are secure, remove the
connector from the lower insert.
4. Remove the screw that secures the adjustment
block to the universal arbor tool then remove the
adjustment block. Slide the lower insert onto the
base assembly until it is against the compression
spring. See Figure 2.
5. Re-assemble the adjustment block. Make sure to
orient the block so that the fine adjustment screw is
closest to the right side and bottom side of the
block. See detail in Figure 2.
To avoid improper terminations, the adjustment
block must be re-assembled properly.
6. Loosen the fine adjustment screw so that it is not
touching the lower insert.
7. Install the Base Assembly Universal Arbor Tool
onto the frame assembly, as described in 408-4201.
To avoid personal injury, be sure to disconnect the
air from the main air valve when using Pneumatic
Auto-Cycle Unit 91112-3.
3.2. Setup
1. Remove the cover from the connector and place
the connector into the lower insert as described in

2. Position the cable onto the universal arbor tool
and follow termination procedures according to the
instructions packaged with the Base Assembly
Universal Arbor Tool, Instruction Sheet 408-4201.
3.3. Connector Inspection
1. Perform a test termination and inspect the
connector to ensure that the cable conductors are
aligned with the contacts. If available, use a tester to
inspect the termination, or remove the connector
cover and inspect the termination with a microscope
to ensure that the cable conductors are properly
aligned with the contacts. Refer to applicable
application specification (114-series) for termination
height dimensions.
2. If the cable conductors are not aligned with the
contacts, a re-alignment of the connector is
necessary. Determine the direction the connector
must be moved to align the cable conductors with
the contacts. Loosen the two locking setscrews on
the universal arbor tool (which secure the lower
insert) and re-align the lower insert.
For additional information on connector and cable
alignment, refer to the instructions packaged with
the universal arbor tool.
4. CONNECTOR-SPECIFIC KIT INSPECTION
The connector-specific kit has been inspected and
should be verified with the information provided in
Figure 4. It is recommended that the kit be inspected
immediately upon its arrival at your facility (and at
regularly scheduled intervals) to ensure that the kit
components have not been damaged during handling.
