haven't fitted the switches yet, you must now push them into their correct locations on the
Pot/Switch board but do not solder them just yet. Move every switch's toggle to its middle position,
even the ones that don't naturally have a middle position.
Whether you have chosen to use the MOTM format Schaeffer panel or the MU panel with its shim
plate, each pot will need to be fitted with an additional thin M7 flat washer, and each switch with its
toothed washer. You will not be needing to use the thicker washer or the second nut that is provided
with the switches.

slim washers on the pots prior to the panel or sub-panel being fitted on top.
The Schaeffer panel is 3mm thick and includes 2.1mm deep blind holes on the reverse side of the
panel. These are used by the locating lugs on the vertically mounted 16mm pots. The lugs prevent
the pots from turning while their securing nuts are tightened.

Schaeffer panel. Note the locating lugs of the pots fitting snugly into the blind holes in the panel. Note also the
slim M7 washer between the inside surface of the panel and the pot.
The MU panel is only 1.5mm thick so does not have the depth to incorporate suitably deep blind
holes for the locating lugs of the pots. Holes could be drilled through the panel but this would make
