Safety Precautions
S Do not pull on the connector or the cable. The connector
may be damaged or the cable conductors may be broken.
S To prevent connector damage and broken cable
conductors, install the cable and connector in locations
where they will not be stepped on, entangled in people’s
legs, or otherwise subjected to excessive strain. If
installation in such locations cannot be avoided, install
protective covers to protect the connector and cable.
S Do not mate the connector in the wrong direction. The
connector may be damaged.
S Do not use the connector if the lock lever is broken. The
connector may become disconnected, possibly causing
machine malfunction.
S When installing the cable, do not bend it past the
specifications given for the cable.
S Do not apply a current exceeding the rated current.
S Do not use pliers or similar tools to remove the connector.
S Hold the connector firmly when working on it, but do not
apply excessive force to it.
S Once a connector has been assembled do not take it apart
and reuse it. If the assembly is not successful, use a new
connector to redo the operation.
S This connector is not water-proof. Do not allow it to be
subjected to water or oil during operation.
S
Be careful when using a sharp knife to cut the cable.
S Do not use dirty cables, crimp terminals, or cables other
than the specified cables. Doing so may cause contact
failure or an increase in ambient temperature.
S Be careful not to injure your fingers when crimping the
cables.
S Be sure to hold the connector firmly in place when
tightening the screws.
Precautions for Correct Use
S Wiring Work
S
Do not perform wiring work or connect/disconnect the
connector while the power supply is ON. Electrical
shock or machine malfunction may result.
S Wiring the cable according to the wiring diagram for the
machine being used.
S Confirm that there are no short-circuits caused by wires
sticking out of the connector.
S Connecting the Connector
S
Always hold onto the body of the connector when
connecting/disconnecting the connector.
S Be sure the connector is connected completely to the
back and then pull in the reverse direction to be sure the
connector will not disconnect.
S Confirm that the cable labels and cable colors match
before connecting the cable.

Wiring Procedure for the End that Is Crimped
1. Cutting the Cable
S
Cut the cable at a 90 angle to the length of the cable.
S To prevent short-circuits, be sure to cut the cable with a
sharp knife and be sure there are no short conductor wires
protruding from the inside of the cable sheath.
2. Temporarily Securing the Cover on the Terminal Block
S
Fold the cover closed and check that the hooks on the top
and bottom securely fasten into place.
S Temporarily connect the cover to the main unit.
