ASSEMBLE COMPONENTS TO THE PC BOARD
Figure B
Diodes have polarity. Mount them
with the band in the correct direction,
as shown on the top legend.
Figure C
Electrolytics have a polarity
marking indicating the (–) lead.
The PC board is marked to
show the lead position.
Wire 1” - Cut a 1” wire and strip
both ends. Solder one end to
the PC board marked (+).
C4 - .47mF (474) Mylar Cap.
Wire 1” - Cut a 1” wire and strip
both ends. Solder one end to
the PC board marked (–).
C3 - .1mF (2A104K) Mylar Cap.

Cut three 3” red wires and
solder them to the PC board
marked 1-2-3. Then solder the
other ends to the 2MW pot as
shown.
Cut the tab off of the 2MW pot.
BATT - Battery Wires
Solder the black battery holder
wire to the BATT (–) Hole
marked on the PC board.
Solder the red battery holder
wire to the left lug of the switch.
Solder the 2” red wire to the
BATT (+) hole on the PC board.
Then, solder the other end to
the middle lug of the switch.
