wago connector operation

[ericl]

I am struggling a bit with inserting the transducer wire into the wago connector on my DFF3D. Any tips? Are there better tools available - if so what type is the wago connector used on the DFF3D so that I can get the proper tool?

There is the white WAGO connector tool on the DFF3D board. You lock it in and push down to open up the ports for the wires.

I have seen some youtube video's showing a larger tool with more leverage - at 70 y/o with arthritis stuff designed by 20-somethings for use by 20-somethings don't work for me; which accurately describes my feeling about the little white tool- there seem to better options available but I first need to find out what type/family of wago I am dealing with.

Solved - more force than I was using at first was required when pushing down

We have what we call a small wago tool (like the one used and provided with the DFF3D) and a large wago tool but I have no idea what the WAGO type number is. We looked all over. I am glad you got it going.
