ABSTRACT The present invention relates to a contact insertion tool. The insertion of contacts directly into the bores in a connector body sometimes causes damage to the internal diameter restrictions with insertion of the contacts being slow and difficult at best. The present invention overcomes these deficiencies by providing an improved tool, together with a unitary control mechanism for such a tool. The tool has bore enlarging means including a sleeve and a rod co- axially aligned within the sleeve for insertion into the bore of the connector for enlargement thereof. The unltary control mechanism, operatively associated therewith enables relative movement between the sleeve and the rod, and includes spring release means which in a first position resists rearward movement of the sleeve and the rod, in a second position permits rearward movement of the rod but resists rearward movement of the sleeve, and again in the first position permits rearward movement of the sleeve for relative sequential movement between the sleeve and the rod. The tool can also include an opening therein having first and second pistons controlled by the unitary control mechanism with the sleeve being secured to the first piston and the rod being secured to the second piston.
