3) Fasten the two #4 nuts onto the two screws and tighten.
4) Mount the 5 lug terminal strip with the
grounded terminal #1 between the 5K pot and
the tube socket using #6 hardware.

SECTION 5 – Connect the DC Power Components
Please refer to DRAWING 5 and DRAWING 6.
Locate the battery snap connector. Connect
and solder the red lead to the positive-switch
lug of the power adapter jack.
Connect and solder the black lead to ring lug on the input jack.
Connect the positive lead of the remaining 220 µF capacitor to the
positive lug on the adapter jack (do not solder here, yet). Connect
the negative lead of this cap to terminal #1.
Cut a 4 ½" length of wire. Strip ¼" insulation from each end. Wrap one end around the positive lug of
the adapter jack (same terminal as the 220µF capacitor). Now solder this connection and make sure
the positive capacitor lead and wire end are not touching the nearby adapter jack lugs.
Connect the other end of this 4 ½" wire to the lower hole terminal #17.
Cut a 2 ½" length of wire and connect the adapter jack center-pin lug to terminal #1.
SECTION 6 – Wiring Connections in the Vacuum Tube Section
Please refer to DRAWING 7.
1) Strip and tin a 2" piece of wire and connect:
Terminals #5 & #12
Suggestion: Connect to the lower hole of terminal #12 to make it easier when connecting other components to this
same terminal later in the instructions.
2) Strip and tin a 3 ½" piece of wire and connect:
Terminals #1 & #9
Suggestion: Connect to the lower hole of terminal #9 and route the wire along a path so that its insulation also serves
as a spacer between the terminal strip and the 5K potentiometer body.
Be careful to mount these so that none of the terminals are
unintentionally shorted to ground from touching the
potentiometer bodies or the tube socket mounting ring.
