Page 10 Page 10 KIT-BUILDING PROCEDURES The steps involved in building a kit are listed below. Be sure to fol- low them and you will have a lot of fun building, aligning, testing and using your kit. 1. Do a parts inventory. At each major section and in the Appendices, there’s a list of parts used in that section (or that will be used shortly).
Page 11 Sienna. 1. Always have a healthy respect for electricity. While the voltages present inside the Sienna are not lethal, high currents are availa- ble (up to 30 Amps when the 100 Watt amplifier is used). Use a pow- er supply with overcurrent foldback or crowbar protection so that in case of high currents the supply will shut down.
Page 12 Page 12 SOLDERING INSTRUCTIONS Poor soldering accounts for almost all kit building problems. The pho- tographs below show examples of the most common types of bad solder connections and a good one. If you locate any of these bad solder con- nections in your kit, correct them as described.
