4. Saw the Panel Cutout
Saw carefully on the inside of the penciled lines. First
make the two long cuts and then the two short cuts.
After the rectangular opening has been cut out, use a
file to square the corners and smooth any irregulari-
ties in the cut edges.
5. Install the Mounting Strips
In the hardware package you will find two mounting
strips and two sets of machine screws. For panels
that are less than ½ inch thick, use the ¾ inch
screws; for panels that are more than ½ inch thick,
use the 1 ¼ inch screws.
Starting at the right-hand side of the panel, insert a
screw of proper length into the center hole in the
panel, marked B on the template. On the back of the
panel, align a mounting strip with the holes in the
panel and tighten the screw until the screwhead is
pulled slightly into the wood.
Repeat this procedure to attach the mounting strip
to the left side of the panel.
6. Attach the PANLOC Brackets
Using two screws of proper length in the A holes on
each side, attach the PANLOC brackets to the cabi-
net panel; the short flange is mounted against the
front (face) of the cabinet panel. The screws pass
through the PANLOC bracket flange, the cabinet pan-
el, and then through the mounting strips previously
mounted.
7. Install the Instrument
Guide the AC power cord through the panel opening
to the back of the cabinet; then, slide the instrument
into the opening carefully so that the rails on the bot-
tom of each side of the chassis engage the tracks on
the mounting brackets. Continue to slide the instru-
ment into the cabinet until it is stopped by the adjust
position latches. Press the latches inward, this per-
mits the instrument to slide into the cabinet until its
front panel is flush with the cabinet panel. Depress
the PANLOC buttons at the lower left and right cor-
ners of the instrument panel to lock the unit firmly in
the cabinet. Depressing the PANLOC buttons again
will unlock the instrument so that it can slide forward
to the adjust position; if you press inward on the ad-
just position latches then you can remove the instru-
ment from the cabinet.
