I drilled a hole for the larger Hammond OT using a 11/64" drill bit on a high torque setting, since I was drilling through a metal casing. I then fed the brown and blue wires through the wire hole, since they have the connectors on them and need more room. After that, I fed the rest of the wires in and secured the OT down with the screws and bolts. I connected the brown wire to T4 and the blue wire to T3 using the quick connectors. Then, I soldered the yellow wire to the 16 ohm output, the green wire to the 8 ohm output, the orange wire to the 4 ohm output, and the black wire to ground. The white wire would be for a 32 ohm output, but since I am not installing one, wrap this one up with electrical tape.
The soldering was very easy: just heat up the already existed solder that was left from the old OT, and push the wire through the hole. I added a little bit extra solder just in case. Finally, I wrapped up all the wires with electrical tape to get them out of the way. I also found this spring reverb unit by Accutronics today, so I'm going to learn about how it works. I want to test the amp today, but I can't bring it home because of the great Snowpacalypse of Auburn 2014.
