A machine for mounting a plurality of conductors of a multiconductor cable on a plurality of contacts or connection grooves of a connector, which includes a connector holder secured on a top surface of the base section to hold a connector having a row of connection grooves or contacts and a conductor carrier rotatable about an axis perpendicular to a top surface of the base and movable along the axis and the vertical plane. The conductor carrier includes a carrier arm provided on the conductor carrier for reciprocating movement in a direction perpendicular to the vertical plane; two pairs of fingers, one provided on the conductor carrier and the other on the carrier arm, to pick up the conductor from the receiving groove and bring it over to a position above a desired connection groove or contact of the connector; and a pusher provided adjacent one of the pair of fingers for reciprocating movement along the vertical axis to insert the conductor into the desired connection groove or contact.
