Solder the capacitors C4 + 
C5 and then C1, trim solder 
wire to 2 mm.

Solder on the transistors and capacitor. 

Bend the middle leg of the transistors slightly 

backwards (image 1), pay attention to the alignment (image 2) and solder the transistors. 
Pay attention to the polarity of capacitor C6, which is now soldered on. I.e. the leg marked 
"-" (minus) must be pushed into the correct soldering point.  Then solder the capacitor in 
place and trim the soldering wires to 2 mm.

The legs of the 
transistors are 
very close 
together. 
Therefore please 
solder 
particularly 
carefully so that 
you do not 
create a short 
circuit between 
the legs.
