hints
1. Assembly (Skipping this can lead to troubles ! )
Ok, so we have your attention. These hints will help you to make this project successful. Read them carefully.
1.1 Make sure you have the right tools:
•
A good quality soldering iron (25-40W) with a small tip.
•
Wipe it often on a wet sponge or cloth, to keep it clean; then apply solder to the tip, to give it a wet look. This is called ‘thinning’ and
will protect the tip, and enables you to make good connections. When solder rolls off the tip, it needs cleaning.
• Thin raisin-core solder. Do not use any flux or grease.
• A diagonal cutter to trim excess wires. To avoid injury when cutting excess leads, hold the lead so they cannot
fly towards the eyes.
•
Needle nose pliers, for bending leads, or to hold components in place.
• Small blade and Phillips screwdrivers. A basic range is fine.
)
For some projects, a basic multi-meter is required, or might be handy
1.2 Assembly Hints :
• Make sure the skill level matches your experience, to avoid disappointments.
•
Follow the instructions carefully. Read and understand the entire step before you perform each operation.
•
Perform the assembly in the correct order as stated in this manual
•
Position all parts on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) as shown on the drawings.

•
Please read the included information on safety and customer service
* Typographical inaccuracies excluded. Always look for possible last minute manual updates, indicated as ‘NOTE’ on a separate leaflet.
