Disassembly; Wedge Lock; Service - Voltage Reading - JLG TOUCAN 10E Service And Maintenance Manual

Disassembly

1. Insert a 4.8 mm (3/16") wide screwdriver blade
between the mating seal and one of the red wedge
lock tabs.
2. Pry open the wedge lock to the open position.
3. While rotating the wire back and forth over a half
turn (1/4 turn in each direction), gently pull the wire
until the contact is removed.
NOTE: The wedge lock should never be removed from the
housing for insertion or removal of the contacts.

Wedge Lock

The wedge lock has slotted openings in the forward, or
mating end. These slots accommodate circuit testing in
the field, by using a flat probe such as a pocket knife. DO
NOT use a sharp point such as an ice pick.

DO NOT PIERCE WIRE INSULATION TO TAKE VOLTAGE READ-
INGS.
It has been common practice in electrical troubleshooting
to probe wire by piercing the insulation with a sharp point.
This practice should be discouraged when dealing with
the AMPSEAL plug assembly, or any other sealed con-
nector system. The resulting pinholes in the insulation will
allow moisture to invade the system by traveling along the
wire strands. This nullifies the effectiveness of the connec-
tor seals and could result in system failure.
