SEN00056-01 00 Index and foreword 3. Removing, installing, and drying connec- tors and wiring harnesses 1) Disconnecting connectors 1] Hold the connectors when discon- necting. When disconnecting the connectors, hold the connectors. For connectors held by a screw, loosen the screw fully, then hold the male and female connectors in each hand and pull apart. For connectors which have a lock stopper, press down the stopper with your thumb and pull the connec- tors apart. a Never pull with one hand. 2] When removing from clips q Both of the connector and clip have stoppers, which are engaged with each other when the connector is installed.
q When removing a connector from a clip, pull the connector in a parallel direction to the clip for removing stop- pers. a If the connector is twisted up and down or to the left or right, the housing may break. 3] Action to take after removing connec- tors After removing any connector, cover it with a vinyl bag to prevent any dust, dirt, oil, or water from getting in the connector portion. a If the machine is left disassem- bled for a long time, it is particu- larly easy for improper contact to occur, so always cover the con- nector. 12 D65EX, PX, WX-15E0
