Step 8

Prepare the resistors to be soldered to the PCB. Bend the resistor leads so that they
span the distance between the cleaned pads and trim the resistor leads to remove any
unneeded, excess length (see image below in Step 9).

Step 9

Solder a 1 MΩ resistor between the two cleaned solder pads in each resistor network (2
resistors total) as shown in the images below. Ensure that the stock resistors stay
soldered in place and attached to the board during the soldering process. IMPORTANT:
The axial resistors should lie flat on the back of the PCB, and no part of the axial
resistors should touch any components other than the resistors they are soldered to.
Additionally, ensure that the solder joints on the newly installed resistors do not extend
beyond the boundary of the solder pad and make contact with other nearby solder pads
or components.
