D - 16 Reassembling the radio

June 2003 IPN: M5000-00-105

Figure D-12: Assembly of the switches

Fitting the front panel to the 
chassis

Place the radio into the front panel top first, 
inserting the antenna connector and knob 
switches through the holes. Gently ease the 
radio into the front panel until the edge of the 
chassis is flush with the edge of the front panel, 
while making sure that the seal is not pinched; 
using the battery as leverage as in radio disas-
sembly may be helpful. Replace the two chassis 
screws at the base of the radio, tightening them 
to 2in.lb (0.23Nm).

Replace the two knobs on the radio with new 
knobs. Press each knob on firmly. There should 
be a small gap between the knob label and the 
base of the knob.
