I purchased some cat6 tool-free connectors. Since this is the first time using tool-free connector, I cannot lay the wires flat to get a good connection.
Wondering what I need to look for when operating this type of connector to install it well and get a good connection? 
Here is an operation video of a CAT6 tool-free RJ45 connector. You can check the following video, which explains the installation steps in detail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWNfjtJm7EM

In addition, I can give you some tips about installing the crimp-free RJ45 plugs.
Straighten the core wire as much as possible. This step will affect the subsequent steps to put the core wire into the wire management cover to reduce the probability of installation failure.
Place the core wires in the corresponding position according to the wire sequence on the wire management cover. Please check the wire sequence twice to prevent the installation from failing due to the wrong wire sequence.
Ensure that the wire management cover is fully pressed into the RJ45 plug so that the metal conductor inside the core wires can make complete contact with the metal contacts in the plug.

I found an instructional diagram. In summary, start by stripping off the cable jacket. Then, follow the T568B or T568A standard to sort the wires and insert them into the module of the RJ45 connector. Once inserted, apply pressure to close the connector. Finally, you can use a tester to check the success of the connection.
Prepare your cables, wire stripping tools, and tester. It’s advisable to review the instruction manual or watch an instructional video before proceeding to avoid operational mistakes that could lead to failure.
