UNPACKING & ASSEMBLY
The Phi 2.0 is shipped with the vacuum tubes and glass covers installed. Should the need
ever arise, the following directions illustrate how to install the glass; follow these steps in
reverse order to remove the glass.
Remove the four screws that secure the aluminum top frame to the
chassis pillars using the tool provided. Turn counterclockwise to
remove.
Wear the supplied cotton gloves to minimize the chance of
fingerprinting the nickel plated chassis. Wipe any oils off immediately.
Take care to prevent the tool from scratching the chassis.
Remove the top frame.
From each of the columns remove the tape, which prevented the
nylon setscrews from coming loose during shipment.
Slide the side glass plates into the pillars’ channels.
The glass will not go all the way to the chassis top, but has a gap at
the bottom for air flow.
Take care not to scratch or break the glass.
