Assembly #3

Now for the fiddly bit.
Put your pots into position. No need to tighten them up yet, but no harm if you do.
Locate the header pins on the main PCB into the CI, V, G, CO pads on the

daughterboard and bring both boards down into the enclosure. Keep an eye on the

wiring and make sure nothing is snagging, and that your Jack Out wire won’t

interfere with the LED.
Locate the daughterboard onto the switch lugs, ensuring your main PCB clears the

edge of the switch. Hopefully you’ve read the main FuzzPup document and have

soldered the header pins at an angle to make this easier.
Now everything should just relax down into position. Once you’re happy with  where

the boards are you can solder the headers and footswitch into place.
Once that’s all done you can push your LED down into its hole and finish up.
