Page 3 Enclosure Assembly: First, take either the back or bottom panel and cut or drill holes required for the speaker termination of your choice (plate amplifier, binding posts, terminal cup, Speakon, etc…). Next, set the enclosure parts out on a flat level surface and ensure that all pieces are free of dust and debris.
Page 6 Make sure all mating surfaces have flush edges and stand the enclosure up on its legs. Apply four clamps from side to side along the edges, at least two clamps from front to back and at least two clamps from the top panel to the bottom. Using a damp rag or paper towel, wipe away any glue squeeze-out on the outside of the enclosure (excess glue on the inside is fine).
