7) Check the position of all the parts if they are flat on the board and at the right angle, push the
LEDs to the faceplate and do the soldering - for LEDs solder just one leg of each first, align
them then to the faceplate. - LEDs (one leg) + pots + jacks
(
SOLDERING TIP
: you can start by soldering just one of the leg at each component so you
can make adjustments easier by reheating)
CLEANING (OPTIONAL) & FINAL CHECK
After the soldering is done you might want to
clean
your PCB. You can use e.g. isopropyl alcohol.
Spread some of the liquid all over the PCB using the brush (be aware to not let it flow into the
potentiometers!), let it act for a few seconds and sweep it off. Then just let it dry. You can repeat these
steps until you are satisfied with the result.
