Standoffs

A number of threaded standoffs are used. As with the screws and washers, be sure you use the correct size as

specified in the text. Standoff lengths are measured from end to end as shown in Figure 2. Standoffs threaded for

2-56 and 4-40 screws are used.

Figure 2. Typical Standoff.

Lock Washers

Two types of lock washers are used in the KPA500 (see Figure 3). It is important that you use only the type

specified and put the washers exactly where indicated. Adding washers or placing the washers in the wrong

position may cause parts to fail to fit together properly.
