Figure 3-7Mounting Screw Clearance

CAUTION: The PCB is very close to the mounting holes. Do not ex- ceed the specified length for the mounting screws. The specified screw length allows full use of the mounting hole threads, while avoiding damaging or placing unwanted stress on the PCB. Figure 3-7 specifies the minimum clearance be- tween the PCB and the screws in the mounting holes. To avoid stripping the mounting hole threads, the maximum torque applied to the screws must not exceed 8 inch-pounds. A maximum screw length of 0.25 inches may be used.
