for
the
following
steps.
( )
Cut
a 1"
length
of
double-adhesive
tape
from
the
1-foot length furnished. Lay
this
piece
aside
for
use
later.
NOTE:
When
the circuit
board
is
mounted,
lockwashers
must be
installed between
the
chassis
and
the
foil
side
of
the
circuit
board. This
assures
a
good
ground
between
the
circuit
board
and
the
chassis.
This
operation
can
be
simplified
if
you
place
a
1-112" piece
of
tape over
each
screw
head
after
the
screws
are
placed
in the
holes
from
the
lettered
side
of
the
circuit
board. The tape
will
hold the
screws
in
place
until
lockwashers
and nuts are
installed.
The
tape furnished
has
adhesive
with a
protective
covering
on
each
side.
Remove
the
covering
from
one
side
only
when you
tape the
screw
heads.
( )
Cut
six
1'1
12"
lengths
of
tape.
( )
Mount
the circuit
board
on the
chassis.
(Position
the
board as
shown
in
Plctorial 14.)
Use
6-32
x
318"
hardware. Tape
the
screw
heads
into
place
with
the
1-1
12"
pieces
of
tape.
On the
lettered side
of
the
circuit
board,
place
a
#6
solder
lug
under
the
screw
head
at
BE.
At
BD
place
a
#8
plain solder
lug
on the
screw instead
of a
lockwasher. Then
raise
the circuit
board
into
place
and
secure
the
screws with
lockwashers
and nuts.
Do not
place nuts
or
lockwashers
on the
screws
at
BF
or
BS.

Install
a
6-lug
terminal strip
on
circuit
board
mounting
screw BF. Position
the
mounting
foot
as
shown'
Note
the
lockwashers
used.
( )
Place
a #6
solder lug and a 6-32
nut on
the
screw
at
BS.
Be
sure
to
position the
solder lug
as
shown.
( )
Remclve
the
tape
from
the
screw heads,
position
each
solder lug
as
shown
in the
Pictorials,
and
tighten
each
mounting
screw
securely
so
the
lockwashers
will
bite
into the
circuit
board
foil to form
a
good
connection
to
the
chassis.
NOTE:
In the

after you
