Figure 8: Connecting the option board to the main board of the radio
Align the option board to the mounting holes ensuring that the flex tabs are
against the chassis alignment posts.
Using a T6 TORX™ driver, tighten the three screws to 0.28 N-m (2.5 lbs-in) to
secure the option board to the chassis.
Assemble the control head seal on the radio. Assemble the control head to the
radio chassis by aligning one side of the control head assembly tabs to one
side of the radio chassis tabs and then rotate the control head assembly until
the other side engages.
Note: Verify that the control head seal is not pinched and not visible. If a pinch is
found, disassemble the control head, reseat the seal and reassemble the
control head.
