Flat-head screws are more easily damaged than pan-

heads. Do not use excessive force when tightening them.

Attach two 2-D fasteners to each side panel at the locations

indicated in Figure 6-10. (Make sure that the holes are countersunk;
if not, you may be working with the wrong side of the panel.)
Use one 3/16" (4.8 mm) flat-head screw to hold each 2-D fastener
to the side panel (Figure 6-11). The two unused holes on each
fastener must be offset away from the side panel as shown.

Attach the side panels to the RF board using two 3/16" (4.8

mm) flat-head screws per side panel. The side panels are attached
using the 2-D fasteners that are already in place on the RF board.
Figure 6-12 shows the approximate location of the two screws used
to secure the right side panel.
