SECTION 3 – Wiring the PileDriver
Please refer to DRAWING 4.
Stripping and tinning wire. Throughout these instructions you will be told to strip and tin a length
of wire numerous times. Unless noted otherwise, cut the wire to the length stated in the
instructions. Then strip ¼” of insulation off each end. Twist each end of the stranded wire, and
apply a small amount of solder to each end (tin the wire ends). This will prevent the stranded wire
from fraying and will make the soldering much easier.
1) Strip and tin a 2" piece of wire and connect:
Potentiometer Lug #1.
Terminal Strip #2.
