Step
Action
1
Place the panel gasket onto the rear flange of the recorder case.
2
Install five #8-32 x 3/4 screws on each of the four mounting brackets so the ends of the screw
threads are flush with the face of the bracket.
NOTE: Screw heads to be flange side of brackets.
3
Insert the case with gasket into the panel opening.
4
Position the bracket so that the tabs on the end of the bracket slide into the holes in the case,
Secure the four brackets with 1/4-20 x 5/8 long bolts and lockwashers; one to the top, bottom
and each side of the case. Tighten the bolts.
5
Start to tighten the #8-32 x 3/4 screws on a bracket. Tighten the end screws first then those
toward the middle until all five screws have a 5 to 8 lb-in of torque applied. Do the same to
both the other three brackets.
When completed all twenty screws should have a 5 to 8 lb-in of torque applied. This assures
that the case and panel gaskets are adequately sealed against the panel.
