NOTE Solder Sleeves with pre-installed lead: A preferred solder sleeves is the Raychem S03 Series with the thermochromic temperature indicator. These solder sleeves come with a pre-installed lead and effectively take the place of items 12 and 13. For detailed instructions on product use, refer to Raychem installation procedure. 3. Slide a shield terminator (12) onto the prepared cable assembly (11) and connect the wire (13) to the shield using a heat gun approved for use with solder sleeves. The chosen size of solder sleeve must accommodate both the number of conductors present in the cable and the wire (13) to be attached. 4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 as needed for the remaining shielded cables. 5. Crimp contacts (14) onto the wires and terminate in the connector (10) in accordance with the aircraft wiring drawings. Assemble the backshell onto the connector: 1. Attach the Shield Block (2) to the backshell (1) by inserting the flathead screws (3) through the holes on the Shield Block and threading into the tapped holes on the backshell (1). (See Figure 3-1). CAUTION When mounting the slide lock, use only the specified screws (6). Do not attempt to use the self-tapping screws supplied in the slide lock kit, as these will damage the backshell housing. 2. Place the slide lock (5) over the connector (10). While holding the slide lock in place, attach the connector / slide lock to the backshell (1) by inserting two screws (6) through the holes on the connector and threading into the tapped holes on the backshell (1). (See Figure 3-1) 3. Wrap the cable bundle with Silicone Fusion Tape (19 or a similar version) at the point where the backshell strain relief and cast housing will contact the cable bundle. CAUTION Placing the grooved side of the strain relief across the cable bundle may damage wires. 4. Place the smooth side of the backshell strain relief (7) across the cable bundle and secure using the three screws (6). 5. Insert the slide lock spring (4) into the connector backshell (1). Attach the cover (8) to the backshell using two screws (9). Page 3-6 Rev. B GAD 43 Installation Manual 190-00899-00

wiring drawings.
Assemble the backshell onto the connector:
1.
Attach the Shield Block (2) to the backshell (1) by inserting the flathead screws (3) through the holes
on the Shield Block and threading into the tapped holes on the backshell (1). (See Figure 3-1).
CAUTION
When mounting the slide lock, use only the specified screws (6). Do not attempt to use
the self-tapping screws supplied in the slide lock kit, as these will damage the backshell
housing.
2.
Place the slide lock (5) over the connector (10). While holding the slide lock in place, attach the
connector / slide lock to the backshell (1) by inserting two screws (6) through the holes on the
connector and threading into the tapped holes on the backshell (1). (See Figure 3-1)
3.
Wrap the cable bundle with Silicone Fusion Tape (19 or a similar version) at the point where the
backshell strain relief and cast housing will contact the cable bundle.
CAUTION
Placing the grooved side of the strain relief across the cable bundle may damage wires.
4.
