Step 9 – Mount the reverb tank
Drawing 3 shows the four mounting holes for the reverb tank. The tank should be mounted on the outside of
the chassis with its input and output connectors facing the front panel of the chassis. Use #10 hardware. Make
sure to use the ½” long #10 screws.

Remove the four grommets and sleeved washers from
the reverb tank. They will not be useful for mechanical
isolation in this application.

Sleeved Washer
Remove all foam pieces from the inside of the reverb tank.
The screw heads and flat washers go on the outside of the chassis, on top of the
reverb tank’s mounting flange. The lock washers and hex nuts should be
fastened on the inside of the chassis.

At this point, all of the top mounted components should be in place. Fastening the tube shield tops to their
shield bases can help keep the chassis more stable for the rest of the assembly process, but we do not
recommend installing the tubes until after the kit is completely assembled.
SECTION 2 – Mounting of Rear Components
Please refer to assembly Drawing 4.
Step 1 – Mount the power cord receptacle
Mount the power cord receptacle in the square hole as shown in
Drawing 4 so that the earth ground terminal is positioned closest to
the chassis opening. Except for the locking lug, use #4 hardware.
Make sure that the locking lug is mounted to the same screw and in
the same orientation as shown in the drawing.

Place the solder lug washer over the phono jack before inserting
the jack through the 3/8" hole from the inside of the chassis.

Place the flat washer over the phono jack on the outside of the chassis and fasten the nut while making
sure the sleeve terminals of both solder lug washers are oriented as shown in Drawing 4.
Put a slight bend in the solder lug washer before
mounting the phono jack so that the sleeve terminal
will not be flat against the chassis surface.
