Attach Power Switch

Bend the exposed ends of the power switch cable in to hooks using the pliers. Put one with hook on

each of the two contacts on the switch. Since the switch is SPST the wire color is unimportant.

Be careful soldering, the switch is easily melted, try only touching the iron to the wire hooks, and do not

make contact with the switch terminal. As soon as the solder flows, remove the iron.

Insert the switch into the rear panel PCB, wire first.
