Jim: All 29 #4 interior tooth lock washers are called for in the assembly procedure. It sounds like you left one out somewhere.
Here's where they are used (looking at the Rev F4 Kit Assembly manual but I believe the page and figure numbers have not changed for quite a while now)/ You got a total of 29 #4 interior tooth lock washers packaged in two bags, one with 17 washers and one with 12 washers: 7 are used to mount the power supply on the bottom cover (Fig 11, page 14) 2 are used mounting the rear panel terminal strip (Fig 18, page 17) 8 are used to mount the RF INPUT and RF OUTPUT SO-239 connectors on the rear panel (Fig 20, page 18). 2 are used to mount the Power Entry module on the rear panel (Fig 22, page 19). 7 are used to mount the rectifier board on the Z-bracket (Fig 29, page 23). 3 are used in the top cover interlock actuator (Fig 63, page 42). 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Jim N7US Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2013 2:35 PM To: d...@w3fpr.com Cc: 'Elecraft Reflector' Subject: Re: [Elecraft] [KAT500} Extra lockwasher in kit? Makes sense, Don, but this one is listed on the parts list but I don't see a use for it. 73, Jim N7US -----Original Message----- From: Don Wilhelm [mailto:w3...@embarqmail.com] Sent: September 29, 2013 16:02 To: Jim N7US Cc: Elecraft Reflector Subject: Re: [Elecraft] [KAT500} Extra lockwasher in kit? Jim, If you had 2 (or more), then you can just keep the extra. Hardware items are weighed, not counted, so occasionally, you may find extras. Of course, if you were short, that is a different matter and an email to pa...@elecraft.com will have one to you in a few days. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/29/2013 4:42 PM, Jim N7US wrote: > I'm almost finished assembling a KAT500, and I haven't found a step > calling for the lock washer, #4, interior tooth (P/N E700010).
