Specifically, the instructions are for the assembly of kits v2 (version 2), those using the All-In-One circuit and the PiScreen 3.5' display. If you have a older kit v1, based in the 2in1 circuit and the PiTFT 2.8' display, you better should read [[Building a Zynthian Box using an official Kit | this tutorial]].

Anyway, it's quite detailed and can be used as a guide to build a custom Zynthian Box from scratch. Of course, you will have to be creative if you want to do it in that way ;-)

Just insert the connector with the JST-wire from the out-side of the case and the nut from the innerside. A pair of pliers can be useful for tighten.

===Secure the Display===

===Secure the Display===

This step is a little bit tricky because the bolts & nuts are tiny, and it have some slack. Don't press too much the nuts. The PCB have to bend a little bit, but not too much. You should be capable of moving the display pushing the borders with your fingers. Later, when the screen is on, you will fine adjust the position for having the margins equalized.

For fixing the display to the case cover, you have to use this set:

'''Note:''' Before fixing the screen, don't forget to remove the protective plastic sheet!
