- Twist the hand nut clockwise to UNLOCK. IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the neck, ensure that the hand nut is always in the UNLOCK position when inserting a neck.
- Insert the neck into the connector housing. IMPORTANT: The neck is fully inserted only when the neck bottoms out and the insertion depth guide (INSERT TO HERE) on the neck meets up with the connector housing.
- Release the hand nut allowing it to return to the LOCK position. IMPORTANT: Do not release the hand nut unless the neck has been fully inserted or damage to the neck may result.
