Place the top cover on the KAT500 and secure it as shown in Figure 36. The cover sits on top of the

tabs at the center of the front and rear panels. If all of the screw holes do not line up, rotate it a half turn. It
only fits one way. You may need to loosen some of the other enclosure screws for the cover to fit
properly. That is normal. The top cover should fit flush with the surrounding panels. Once you have
loosened and tightened the screws as needed for all of the panels to fit together, you will be able to
remove and replace individual panels in the future, if needed, without having to repeat that process.

Figure 36. Installing the Top Cover.


IMPORTANT: The enclosure screws, including all of the top cover screws, are

important to the structural strength KAT500. Always be sure that all the screws are
in place and tight.

That completes the assembly of your KAT500. Turn to page 3 for setup and operating instructions.
