The MFJ-914 connects in-line between your transmitter and antenna.
Connect your transmitters antenna output to the SO-239 connector

maximum protection of your tranceiver, a 50 Ohm dummy load should be
connected to the plug labeled Dummy Load, and the Ground stud
connected to a good RF ground.

Operation:

The MFJ-914 AutoTuner Extender is easy to use! First, bypass your
transmitters auto-tuner. Then, while transmitting at a low output power,
adjust the knob (from position A through G) on the MFJ-914 until you see
minimum SWR on your transmitter. Now you're ready to autotune. The
Off / Dummy Load position on the knob protects your tranceiver by
connecting it to an external dummy load, and by grounding your antenna
