Connect the 0.1μF capacitor to lug #5 of the terminal strip and lug #1 of the 10kΩ potentiometer. Solder
both connections using the heatsink. Trim excess leads.
Connect the 0.1μF capacitor (see note below) to lug #2 of the terminal strip and lug #3 of the footswitch.
Solder lug #2 of the terminal strip using the heatsink. Solder lug #3 of the footswitch. Trim excess leads.
Note:
A 0.01μF capacitor (included) or a 1μF capacitor (also included) can be substituted for the default
0.1μF capacitor to obtain diff erent sounds for your Rattler. Do not forget to use the heatsink when soldering
connections with the transistor lead (terminal strip lug #2).
