1. Find the front panel decal that corresponds with your receiver and the
rear panel decal; separate using scissors. Be sure to leave excess decal
material around the edges. Put the rear panel decal on first. This is
done by:
a.)
Remove all debris and oil from the chassis. This should
be done using a piece of cloth and alcohol.
b.)
Remove the crack and
peel to expose the adhesive.
c.)
Place the decal on the rear panel
without securing it completely.
d.)
Gently rub the alignment circles
and/or rectangles with your finger--if the circles and/or rectangles are
centered in the enclosure holes (also check the corner alignment
marks) secure the decal by rubbing and removing all air bubbles.
e.)
If
the alignment circles and/or rectangles are not centered, adjust the
decal accordingly then secure.
f.)
Use a penknife, or small Exacto
TM
knife, to cut away the unused edges (cut from the adhesive side) and
cut out the component holes (cut from the description side).
g.)
Repeat procedure for the front panel.

4. Mount the circuit board in the chassis. Mount the board a follows:
a
).
Insert the 4-40 x 1/2" machine screws (2) into the holes in the chassis,
then sit the chassis on the table so the screws do not fall out.
b
). Slip
one #4 x 3/16" spacer (7) over each screw.
c

onto the screws, making sure the knob on the large switch is inserted
into it's hole.

nuts, (3) and tighten.

5. Secure the large switch, SW1 using the 3/8" hex nut (5) and thin steel
washer (4) that came with the VEC-821K kit. Tighten the screws in
place. There will already be a 3/8" hex nut installed on the switch.
This nut needs to remain on the switch as a spacer.
