ABSTRACT:
A connector 1 is provided with first leads 3--3 protruding forward from a front surface of a connector main body 2 so as to constitute a longer lead row, and second leads 4--4 shorter than the first leads 3--3 and protruding forward from the front surface of the connector main body 2 so as to constitute a shorter lead row. The longer lead row is parallel to and spaced in a vertical direction from the shorter lead row. The connector 1 is held with an installation head 6. The connector 1 is horizontally transported until the protruding distal ends of the first leads 3--3 are positioned just above an end (i.e. terminals 14--14) of a printed circuit board 11 while the protruding distal ends of the second leads 4--4 are offset from the end (i.e. terminals 15--15) of the printed circuit board 11. The connector 1 is vertically shifted until the protruding distal ends of the first leads 3--3 are brought into contact with terminals 14--14 provided on the end of the printed circuit board 11 while the second leads 4--4 are spaced from the printed circuit board 11. The connector 1 is advanced toward the printed circuit board 11 until the end of the printed circuit board 11 is clamped between the first and second leads 3--3 and 4--4, thereby mounting the connector onto an end of the printed circuit board.
