pin in euro socket

[Geanvert]

Does anyone know if you can move the pins in a central euro type socket and how to do it? THANKS

Most connecters like those have a removal tool so pins can be removed, like this one. It is to be used by inserting from the pin side and pushing the pin out the back side (wire connection side). As the second one shows there are many sizes and designs

excellent, thank you very much. It's a shame no one has posted a YouTube video to show how to do this. Thanks again for the feedback.

It is fairly easy if you have the tool that fits the connecter pin. you expose the rear of the connecter so it is clear to see the wires and insert the tool and push the pin out the back to free it from the connecter. Most pins have a small spring band around them the tool compress the band so the pin can come out the rear.
this guy shows a similar removal skip forward about 3 minutes, get away from blabber mouth.

this shows how for the round pins but this one does it from the rear.

a big thank you for the research and sharing, it will save me a lot of time and above all allow me to buy a machine torch which is not necessarily linked to the correspondence of my generator and the adapted one. good Sunday

the second video corresponds perfectly to the type of tool necessary I think for the euro socket.

Here is an image of the pins used in a Hypertherm plug and similar connecters. Shown are the retainers on the pin and how the removal tool works by sliding over the retainers. The pin then can be removed

on a trafimet torch the pins unclip from the back I think.
