HOUSING



The cabinet can now be completed by first fitting the covers for the supply transformers.



Mount the front panel to the cabinet, use the support brackets supplied, together with M3 and M4
Allen bolts. Check the position of the switch and the LED (see figure 13).



If it all fits together well, then all bolts can be fully tightened.
