WARNING: The grill cloth is flammable! Be extremely careful to only singe the tips of
loose fibers without setting your baffle board on fire.
17. If the grill cloth seems looser than you are comfortable with then you can use your heat gun to
tighten it up.

This is a tricky process to apply just enough heat to tighten it up, but not
enough to cause the lines to warp and go crooked. We suggest you practice on some of the
scraps you just cut from the baffle assembly. This will give you an idea of how easily the grill
cloth is affected by your heat gun. Start with the heat gun on the lowest setting and if that isn’t
hot enough, you can move up from there. Also, start with the heat gun at least 12” away from
the grill cloth; move closer if necessary. Move from the center of the baffle outward, in ever-
bigger circles. You are trying to warm the whole cloth uniformly, from the center outwards. Be
patient and take your time, and you should be pleased with the results.
18. Take your lovely Italian speaker (Part # LS08) out of its box and place it face down on the back
of the baffle board, lining up its mounting holes with the t-nut holes. The speaker should be
rotated so that the connection terminals will be at the top of the baffle, closest to the input
jack.
