Wago connectors and block

[spope14]

I am very unfamiliar with how to connect the wires in the terminal block and in the WAGO wire connector ends supplied. I looked at a few things and they said "use the supplied tool", which was not supplied in the kits. Any help nappreciated, I have tried the WAGO site as well.

Use a small flat-head screw driver. So long as the width of the blade is narrower than the slot, you should be okay.

Thank you very much! Made all the difference!

I came across this http://www.oregonfirst.org/wp/wp-uploads/2009/04/Overview-of-Electronics_2009.pdf. On page 21 there is a great picture showing how to "work the wago". Important not to pry (which can result in flying screwdrivers!) but to slide the tip of the screwdriver along the back and down until it holds the wago slot open. Remove screwdriver once the wire is in place, test pull wire to make sure it is locked securely.
