1. Fit the hinges onto the lid first using the four M4 bolts and nuts (see “diagram of lid assembly and rubber
feet”. There is a "hinge" portion that is fairly obvious to identify - this bolts to the rear outer side of the rear
lid face - the bolts pass through the “hinge” then the lid and then a washer positioned on the inner face of
the lid. The nuts then clamp the whole assembly together with the lid sandwiched in the middle.
2. Place the lid on the plinth and mark the positions of the screw holes for the hinge support housings using the lid as
a jig. Ensure that the housing positions locate the lid centrally on the deck and at the correct height. The correct
height is when the tops of the plastic housings are absolutely level with the top edge of the plinth.
3. Drill the holes for the hinge screws in the plinth using a 3mm or 3.5mm drill. -. The two hinge housings can
now be screwed into position on the plinth – Re-insert the lid hinges to check the fit of the lid.
4. Pull the lid off the turntable to allow you to build the rest of kit – you can re-fit the lid once the deck is
complete.

1. Cut the switch shaft so that 10mm is left of it’s smooth portion - use a hacksaw or powerful pair of wire
snips. Remove the serrated washer from the switch and do not use it at all. The switch can then be fitted in
position in the pre-drilled hole at the front left hand side of the plinth. You need only tighten the top
clamping nut to the point that the switch body won’t rotate when the shaft is clicked through it’s 3
positions. Be careful not to cross-thread the nut when you put it on.
2. Fit the knob and tighten up the set screw in it’s side to clamp it onto the switch shaft. A 2mm allen key is
provided to tighten this set screw.
a) If you have the
advanced
dc regulator board then position it on the left underside of the plinth top-
board (close to the walls of the plinth front corner). Mark the position of the centre hole in the board
onto the underside of the plinth top-board – drill a shallow 3mm dia hole and screw the board into
position with a No 6 x ½” screw. See diagram “Top view of wiring layout & connections” for position.
b) If you have the
standard
dc reguator board then position it on the left underside of the plinth
topboard (close to the walls of the plinth front corner). Mark the position onto the underside of the
plinth topboard for holes right on the edge of 2 opposite sides of the strip board– drill these shallow
holes using a 3mm dia drill and screw the board into position with two No 6 x ½” screws and the brass
washers such that the washers catch on the edge of the board and hold it on. See diagram “Top view of
wiring layout & connections” for position.
