:
Align the front with the cabinet and position the
bottom of the front panel and the bottom of the
cabinet such that the front panel is about 1/32” shy
of the end. Press the front down and partially
tighten the first screw.
Install the screw directly across near the mid-bass
driver and tighten it till the front panel is against the
cabinet. Tighten the first screw about the same
amount. Now work your way up the cabinet and
install all screws. After all screws are installed,
work your way around the cabinet tightening in a
zigzag
pattern. See the next page for
troubleshooting screw installation problems.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN SCREWS.
VERIFY WIRING IS NOT PINCHED BETWEEN
THE FRONT PANEL AND THE CABINET.

Troubleshooting Front Panel
Attachment:
Each mounting hole location on the panel is
optimized for a gasket compression of 40%, so
when installing the panel on a fresh gasket the
holes may appear to be off by a small amount.
Installing the bolts from one end and working
toward the other tends to minimize the error. The
front panel screws occasionally cross thread.
Sometimes the dowel nuts get contaminated with
paint or dust. If the bolt gets hard to turn before it
contacts the panel DO NOT FORCE IT to go
further but rather back the bolt out and check the
threads then try restarting the bolt again. If all
attempts fail the quickest way to resolve this is to
run a 1/4-20 tap into the threads to clear the
obstacle.
