Before placing on the front panel and soldering, the Control Board should
look something like this (remember to leave the spacers attached!
):
FRONT PANEL
-adjust the loose components from the topif neccesary!G
until all their threadings come through,front panel sits parallel to
the Control Board, and that the metal-shaft pots and jacks are &ush with the back of the panel
, attach the panel parts in this order$
!1* NOTE: you’ll have to push the stereo pot from
behind to make its thread rise through the panel enough to be attached to it
(!G start unscrewing the nuts that were left on the
switches until they touch the front panel from behind, and then fully screw the switches nuts from the
front %*E-B<
C make sure that the trimmer potentiometers are centeredand not touching their respective
holes when rotated
Now you can nally solder everything in place! <
