1. Introduction Thank you very much for purchasing the Camper 212 kit ! With this kit you will be able to build your own high quality guitar flat response speaker cabinet.

Once the mounting plate is aligned with the markings on the back side of the back plate, screw in the first two 25mm chipboard screws. I recommend to start with the vertically aligned two screws in the middle of the mounting plate.

Align the speakers to the holes and use the provided screws to tighten them. 7. Applying the new label on the terminal plate (optional) I think it is a good idea to apply the new sticker to the former back side of the terminal plate.

Prepare some water, a piece of soup or liquid soap, a squeegee and the new label. Damp the soap with some of the water and cover the complete surface of the terminal plate with a thin film of soaped water. Peel the white paper backing off the sticker.
Slowly lower the sticker onto the surface and rub it in place firmly with a squeegee or credit card. Rub the sticker until no soap water is pressed out of the area between the sticker and the plate. If the sticker moves, you can hold it in place by sticking one fingertip into on of the jack holes.
