I didn't say " a hair's width," I said "a hair," a technical term understood by OFs as an approximation. I also didn't say "pinch the ribbon cable," because that is not the side of the cabinet where the problem lies in my experience.
Now, are you guys telling me there is an actual wing-nut on the KPA500 transformer hold-down bolt on modern units? If so, forget the torque wrench and try tightening the wing-nut a hair--after following all safety precautions outlined in the manual or my OP. By all means refer to the original KPA500 Assembly Manual. Good luck, pilgrim. 73 Eric WD6DBM A Mr Richard Fedder of Fort Wayne, N.J. wrote: > The KPA-500 transformer should be more than just a "hair" away from sides > (step 6 above) as there are rubber bumpers and a ribbon cable between that > should NOT be pinched.
