There are numerous solder connections on the LABC1 printed circuit board. Therefore, PLEASE take us seriously when we say that good soldering is essential to the proper operation of your battery charger kit!

Do your work in stages, taking breaks to check your work. Carefully brush away wire cuttings so they don't lodge between solder connections.

For each part, our word "Install" always means these steps:
1.Pick the correct component with the proper value to start with.
2.Insert it into the correct PC board location.
3.Orient it correctly, following the PC board drawing and the written directions for all parts - especially when there's a right way
and a wrong way to solder it in. (Diode bands, electrolytic capacitor polarity, transistor shapes, dotted or notched ends of IC's, and so forth.)
4.Solder all connections unless directed otherwise. Use enough heat and solder flow for clean, shiny, completed connections.
5.Trim or nip the excess component lead wire after soldering.
NOTE: Save some of the longer wire scraps nipped from resistors and capacitors. These will be used to form wire jumpers (JMP1, etc.) to be soldered in just like parts during these construction steps.
