Andrew, Yes, I believe the manual is inconsistant on that point. Just make certain there is one lockwasher between the standoff and the PC board (not 2) - and it doesn't matter which end of the standoff has the lockwasher next to the PC board - do it whichever way is better for you. I prefer to put the lockwasher next to the standoff on the conrol board rather than 'fiddlin' with a lockwasher between the standoff and the board when putting the assembly together.
