SECTION 1 – Mount Large Components
Stripping wire, tinning wire and soldering.
Throughout these instructions you will be told to strip
and tin a length of wire numerous times. Unless noted otherwise, cut the wire to the length stated in
the instructions. Then strip ¼” of insulation off each end. Twist each end of the stranded wire, and
apply a small amount of solder to each end (i.e. tin the wire ends).
Please refer to DRAWING 1 and DRAWING 2.
Orient the enclosure with the two 5/16" holes on top.
Using the seven screws, nuts and lock washers provided, fasten the five terminal strips to match
DRAWING 2.

Fasten the two 5 lug
terminal strips and the 3
lug terminal strips first.
Then fasten the two 8
lug terminal strips.
Mount the 1KL pot in the 5/16" hole on the left and the 500KA pot in the
remaining 5/16" hole on the right.
Bend back and remove the alignment tab on the top of each potentiometer
using a pair of pliers before mounting the pots so that they can mount flush
against the enclosure surface.

Mount the DC power jack in the 15/32" hole on the left
side of the enclosure. Orient its solder lugs so that
the center-pin lug is facing the bottom side of the
enclosure.

Mount the input jack in the 3/8" hole on the left side of the enclosure with the hardware provided.
The washer goes under the nut on the outside of the enclosure. Make sure the center solder lug of
the input jack is facing up. Correct positioning of the jack makes soldering the connections easier.
Mount the output jack in the 3/8" hole on the right side of the enclosure. Make sure the two solder
lugs are in their most upright position before tightening the nut.
Mount the footswitch in the 15/32" hole in the center of the enclosure. The nylon washer goes
under the mounting nut on the outside of the enclosure. Then the lock washer mounts on the inside
between the enclosure surface and the other nut. Make sure that the footswitch is oriented to match
DRAWING 2.
SECTION 2 – Wire Large Components
Please refer to DRAWING 3.
Please note that each terminal has been numbered as
illustrated here and will be referred to as a “
terminal #_
” when
connecting different components and wires throughout the
assembly instructions.

This will prevent the stranded wire from fraying and will make the
final soldering much easier.
