This video provides step-by-step instructions on how to properly insert and remove contacts when using TE Connectivity’s DEUTSCH DT Series Connectors. Visit https://www.laddinc.com for more information.
DT Series Contact Insertion
Step 1: Grasp crimped contact approximately one inch behind the contact barrel.
Step 2: Hold connector with rear grommet facing you.
Step 3: Push contact straight into connector grommet until a click is felt. A slight tug will confirm that it is properly locked in place.
Step 4: Once all contacts are in place, insert the wedgelock into the housing.
DT Series Contact Removal
Step 1: Remove the wedgelock using a DT-RT1 removal tool, a screwdriver, a hooked tool or a pair of needle nose pliers.
Step 2: To remove the contacts, gently pull wire backwards, while at the same time releasing the locking finger by moving it away from the contact with a screwdriver.
Step 3: Hold the rear seal in place, as removing the contact will displace the seal.
