If the microphone to be used is provided with pre-cut leads, they must be revised as
follows.
. Cut leads so that they extend 2 mm beyond the plastic insulating jacket of the
microphone cable.
2. All leads should be cut to the same length. Strip the ends of each wire 3 mm and tin
exposed wire.
Before beginning the actual wiring read carefully the circuit and wiring information
provided with the microphone you select. Use the mimimum head required in soldering
the connections. Keep the exposed wire lengths to a minimum to avoid shorting when the
microphone plug is reassembled.

a vise or clamping tool is available it should be used to hold the pin receptacle body
during the soldering operation, so that both hands are free to perform the soldering. If a
vise or clamping tool is not available, the pin receptacle body can be held in a stationary
position by inserting it into the microphone jack of the front panel. The numbers of the
pins of the microphone plug are shown in Fig.4 as viewed from the back of the plug.
Before soldering the wire to the pins, pre-tin the wire receptacle of each pin of the
plug.
