Filter Capacitors 

 

 
 

( ) Bend the lugs of a 220uF 250V 

electrolytic capacitor at 90 degrees. 

Insert the lug by the striped side of 

the capacitor into terminal 20U. 

Insert the non striped side lead into 

terminal 21U.  

Check and recheck the stripe 

orientation (this is one of the most 

common assembly errors) and then 

solder both terminals.   

 
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
( ) Bend the lugs of a second 220uF 250V 
electrolytic capacitor at 90 degrees. Insert 
the lug by the striped side of the capacitor 
into terminal 14U. Insert the non striped side 
lead into terminal 15U. Double check 
orientation and solder. 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
( ) Leave the lugs straight on the third 220uF 
250V electrolytic capacitor. Insert the lug by 
the striped side of the capacitor into terminal 
12U. Insert the non striped side lead into 
terminal 13U. Double check orientation but 

don’t  solder  yet.  Now  insert  one  end  of  a  270K  

ohm 1W resistor into terminal 13U and the 
other end into terminal 12U. Solder both 
terminals and trim the excess resistor leads.
