2) Using the PCB parts diagrams in Drawing 1,2, and 3, place all of the slider 
assemblies into the PCB as shown in figure 1.  DO NOT SOLDER YET.  This al-
lows for the chance to test fit the assembly, and also makes it easier to wire 
the sliders together. 

3) Double check the slider values and tapers.  Using the jumper cables in-
cluded with the sliders, begin wiring the slider assemblies as shown in fig-
ures XX-XX.  Be sure to wire all V+ pins together, and all GND pins together.  It 
is easy to make a mistake and reverse the polarities when using the longer 
cables.  Be sure to double check your work before you solder.
Build wire assemblies.  When completed, the assemblies should still be 
placed loosely into the PCB, as shown in Figure 2.

4) Using elastic bands, clips or other means, hold the sliders into place so 
the PCB can be flipped over for soldering.  Don’t worry if the sliders are 
straight.  They will all be aligned and straightened when the assembly is tack 
soldered into place.  THE SLIDERS MUST BE TACK SOLDERED INTO PLACE BY 
ONLY ONE PIN.   This will allow the slider assemblies to be held in place on 
each PCB while each slider is leveled and aligned.
Now that the slider asseblies are held in place, heat up the tack solder joint 
holding each slider into place and adjust so that slider shafts are perpen-
