Terminal Cover
When in use the terminal cover should be fitted to protect the user from any hazardous voltages that may be present on
the connectors plugged into the back of the recorder. Clearly the cover should not be fitted until all connections have
been made to the back of the recorder.
To fit the terminal cover align the cover with the back of the recorder and fit the top left hand screw which holds the
terminal cover, rear panel and case together. See Fig 11.
