Having got fed up with killing my old fashioned 4 poster JB,s due to one squeek too many and busting the plastic case (always on the last post - sods law in effect, I purchased a box of these Ashley J804 20 amps.
No separate info in box re fitting so i just had to make a common sense guess. I had a tinker with one just to assess and observed (what I would call 2 prong caps) pull up to expose a wire under it. I guessed that the wire would be inserted with the cap off and the cap would then be pressed down and home to secure the wire in addition to the mighty grip already placed on the inserted wire.
Have since seen another post make reference to the press down cap in which it was used to actually press down firmly to RELEASE the cable.
Can someone please advise on the correct fitting of these (new to me) jb,s and tell me if the press down caps should remain in situ when the cable core is inserted, and are these really designed to be able to withdraw a core by pressing down on the cap.
I might add that on my experimental 1st one I inserted a core and just could not pull it back out even using brute force.
Help appreciated, thank you.
Jim.
