Step 5: Install nine lead wires
The kit comes with 24" of lead wire. Cut the wire into 2”
sections. This will give you twelve 2" sections.
Strip around 3/32" of both ends of the 2" pieces. On one of
the 2" pieces, strip 1/4" off one end and 3/32" off the other.
This allows this wire to jump lugs on the footswitch.
Nine lead wires will be installed in eyelets; V+, V-, B+, B-, G,
I, O, G, and L. Leave the second B+ and B- eyelets inside the
rectangle open for the next step.
The two extra wires will be used to connect the jacks to the
footswitch. Note: save the wire with 1/4" stripped for this
step. There will be one extra wire not needed.
Step 4: Install four transistors
Transistors are directional, and they need to be installed
in a specific direction to function properly. Note that each
transistor has a flat side. On the circuit board, their locations
have one side with a single flat line. Install the transistors to
match their outline.
