Andrew,

There must be a lockwasher at one end of the standoff - it is an overall length thing, so it really does not matter which end of the standoff the lockwasher is placed. Do what seems right - yes, the manual says it both ways, and that is confusing. It is easier to put the lockwasher on when first mounting the standoff than it is to slip a lockwasher on top of the standoff when attaching the second board to the other end - that is all there is to it. The manual words are correct, the diagram is older and shows the 'hard' way to do it.

KAT2 rev D manual, page 12.

Step says
Secure the L-C board to the Control board standoffs using two 4-40 screws and 
two #4 split lock washers.  These lock washers go between the standoffs and the 
PC board, not between the PC board and screws as on the control board.

However, page 6 diagram of control board screw/standoff assembly clearly shows 
a different order: from bottom up: screw, Control board, washer, standoff.  Not 
what the above step says.

Is the manual wrong, or am I missing something?

Thanks,
--Andrew
