INSERTION/EXTRACTION TIPS
All dimensions on this document are in metric units [with U.S. customary units in brackets]. Figures and illustrations are for reference only and are not drawn to scale.

2. DESCRIPTION (Figure 1)

The insertion/extraction tool consists of a handle, a cap, six insertion/extraction tips, a plug, and a [.050 in.] hex wrench. The handle of the tool provides storage for the tips, plug, and hex wrench. The insertion/extraction tips convert the tool for the appropriate product and are used to insert or extract connector contacts. Each tip is color coded according to specific type and wire size. The plug is inserted into the widest end of the tip to prevent damage to the tip when it is secured in the tool handle. The hex wrench is used to tighten the setscrew which secures the tip in the tool handle.
