One normally open switch and two make/break switches. A means a normally open switch, B means normally closed, and C means make/break. This relay has 1 normally open, 3 normally closed, and 3 make/break.
As Chad noted, they can be fiddly. They are short throw and quite often people have monkeyed with them and bent the long blades or gotten them in the wrong slot.

Quoted from chad:And make sure you get tbe AX relay just right. These can be very picky!!
I'd go so far as to say they can be very pricky as well.
