  • Page 3 Kit Notes Tools • Soldering iron with large and fine tips • Hot air gun (advised) • Solder • Fine-tip tweezers • Nut drivers/sockets/wrenches: • 7mm (toggle switch) • 8mm (jack nuts) • 10mm (potentiometer nuts) Skills THIS IS NOT A BEGINNER-LEVEL KIT Kit contains both very small (0603) and relatively large (DPAK) components.
  • Page 4 Kit Notes (cont.) • Good, fine-tip tweezers are a must. The Wiha 4b and 7a tweezers are great • One helpful trick for soldering SMD with wire solder is to pre-solder one pad for each component location. Next, hold the component in place and touch your soldering iron tip to the pre-soldered pad to reflow the solder.
  • Page 5 Kit Notes (cont.) Help If you're still having problems, email me! I am always happy to help. When emailing, please include high-resolution pictures of your circuit boards. Most of the troubleshooting requests I have received were solved by zooming in and closely examining the pictures. Cold solder joints are sneaky and hard to spot if you haven't dealt with them before.

  • Page 14 Miscellaneous (cont.) Tightening toggle switch jam nuts. Toggle switches are slightly shorter than the jacks and potentiometers, so the jam nut (rear nut) must be run flush with the panel before tightening the outer nut to prevent deforming the panel. Spin ush with panel, do not tighten.
