How to Assemble Your Super Deluxe 8/16bit Joystick Kit

Step 1

  • 1.1 Insert 4 of the M3 x 16mm annodised hex screws through the rubber feet and on through the bottom panel of the casing.
  • 1.2 Fasten down the 40mm standoffs onto the inserted screws.
  • 1.3 Insert the 4 M2.5 x 16mm nylon screws into the bottom panel.
  • 1.4 Place the 3D printed PCB spacer over the nylon screws.
  • 1.5 Place the PCB onto the spacer and screws.
  • 1.6 Fasten down the PCB onto the nylon screws using the 4 2.5mm nylon hex nuts.

Step 2

  • 2.1 Insert the rocker switch into the rear casing panel.
  • 2.2 Bring the 4 side panels together and lower them into the corresponding slots on the bottom panel, you will have to tilt the rear panel back to get it past the DE9 Connector on the PCB.

Step 3

Using the 4 countersunk M5 screws and 4 M5 nuts fasten the joystick to the 5mm top panel, the nuts have a nylon thread lock so you will have to use an 8mm spanner or a pair of pliers to hold the nut in place while you tighten the screws.

Step 4

Attach the small cable with 3 spade terminals to the rocker switch with a red-black-red sequence and connect the 3 pin dupont connector on the other end to the PCB.
