LA502 Assembly guide – Meter

23. Chassis

It is now necessary to assemble the chassis and main PCB to 
make a guide for soldering the LED's.
Attach the side plate to the front panel with two M3x6mm 
black screws.

24. LED's (1)

Place the main PCB on the side plate and attach it 
temporarily with two M3x25mm spacers.
Insert the LED PCB connector into the socket on the main 
PCB.
Place the first LED in its hole, longest lead above PCB, 
shortest lead below. Push the LED forward as far as 

possible  against the front panel and solder the top lead.

Repeat the process for all six LED's.

25. LED's (2)

When done, remove the chassis 

from the main PCB by unscrewing 
the two 25mm spacers, unplug the 
LED's PCB and solder the short 
lead of the LED's on the bottom 
side of the LED's PCB.

26. Chassis & PCB

Re-plug the LED's PCB and put the main PCB in place on the chassis.
Attach with four M3x25mm spacers and four lock washers.

27. Knobs

Attach the 2 knobs to the 2 potentiometers.
