ANEL
Remove the nuts and washers from the pots and slide the panel onto the pot shafts. Ensure the
headphone connector sits inside its cutout. Place the washers back on the shafts and tighten the
nuts. You may need to tilt the pots slightly so that the panel is at 90 degrees to the PCB.
Press the knobs onto the pot shafts. You may need to do this a couple of times to get the knob
marker to sit equally at each end of the travel.
Push the LED through its cutout so that it pokes out about 2mm proud of the panel.

OUNTING THE
PCB
Place the rear panel onto the rear of the PCB so that the antenna connector and DC socket pass
through the cutouts. Place the PCB onto the enclosure base, ensuring the front and rear panels
slide into the slots on each side of the base. The PCB should then fit flat on the base plastic
pillars.
Screw the PCB to the mounting pillars using the supplied self-tapping screws.
