    You have made a great job! You are almost done! This is what your wall mount should look like now. In the steps below you will work with the peripherals – Pinions and Specters. If you haven’t purchased the Pinion distroplates or Spectra OS pop-tops you can jump to page 33.
    THE CROW
    View From right side – so you can compare your current status. IF you haven’t purchased the Pinion distroplates or Specter OS palmtops you can jump to page

68. Pinion

69. The pinions contains one acrylic element and two aluminum elements. Be very careful with the acrylic element as it’s easily scratch and crack if not handled with care.

70. To avoid scratches you can use the Styrofoam from the packaging as a protective base.

71.  The Crow can house two pinions, they are placed in the areas shown in the picture above.

72. The picture above shows how the brackets should be placed.

73. The pinions are attached to the chassis with 2 pieces of M4x3Omm screws along with silicon pads From the backside.

74. Insert them to their Full length as shown in the picture.

75. Now from the front, place the aluminum brackets on the screws as shown in the picture above.

76. Important! This is correct position for our lower bracket for Pinion. The corners point upwards.

77. View from Frontside of our chassis. Just to be clear -your current status with Pinion should look like that.

78. Carefully place the acrylic Pinion aligned with it’s screw-holes on the screws. The picture above shows the standard placement of the Pinion for ensured watertubing compatibility.

79. Gently press the acrylic Pinion towards the screws while simultaneously tightening the screws from the backside. Take care to not tighten too hard as the acrylic might crack.

80. The screws are only to be tightened so that there are no gap between the acrylic and aluminum and the aluminum and the chassis.

81. Now you repeat the process on the other side.

82. This is how it should look like with the Pinions mounted in the standard configuration.

83. The red markings show what you can look for to make sure you will have an easy time to do your custom-loop.

84. Check if there is no gap between surface of acrylic parts. Tighten all screws up. If all is set. you are done with Pinions!
    Specter

85. The next step is Specter, peripheral for the OS pump.

86. The Specter set contains: Acrylic top, aluminum base and a rubber gasket and 4 pieces of M4x8rnm screws (black) and 4 pieces of M4x2Smm screws (silver). The OS pump in the picture is not included in the set.

87. We strongly recommend to use the Styrofoam from the box

88. Place your rubber gasket in the Specter and then place the as a coaster to prevent scratches on the acrylic. OS pump in the Specter as shown in the picture.

89. Place the aluminum base on the 05 pump and the Specter as shown in the picture above. Make sure that the countersunk screw holes are visible.

90. Carefully lie down our aluminum base. There will be wires going from 05 pump – they have to be inside of hole in aluminum base.

91. Use 4 pieces of M4x2Smm screws to connect the aluminum base with the acrylic top.

92. Tighten the screws carefully with the alien key, making sure not to tighten too hard which might make the acrylic crack.
    Specter for The Crow

93. There are two areas where you can Fit your Specters. Both are shown in red rectangle in the picture above.

94. Make sure to put your cable through the hole of the wall mount First before placing the OS pumps base into the hole. Be careful not to scratch the PSU shroud which is very close to the hole on the right side.

95. This is what it should look like when looking at it From the side.

96. Use 4 pieces of M4x8mm screws (black) with silicon washers to fasten the OS pump to the chassis.

97. Tighten the screws with the Allen key until it’s secure.

98. This is what it should look like when Finished. Repeat the procedure with the other pop-top.

99. Your Final destination with Specters should look like that.You have now successfully assembled the crow! Here are some views on how it should look once done from a few different angles.
    The next step will be mounting it to the wall before we mount the glass panel.
    Wall Bracket

100.  The last part is our wall bracket. Check the direction of it as you place it on the wall. The three holes are the bottom part that should be aligned with the wall. There are no screws delivered with the chassis. Make sure that you use the correct screws for what type of wall you are placing your chassis on! Always seek advice from a professional carpenter before placing heavy equipment on any wall.

101. The first step is to make sure that the wall bracket is leveled. This is done by placing it on the Hight you want the top of the case to be and fastening it with a single screw in the middle. Use a spirit level to find the correct angle of the bracket. then use a pencil to make a mark in the other two holes where you need to attach screws.

102. We can’t stress enough how important it is that you chose the correct screws and/or plugs for what type of wall you have. A fully equipped wall mount can weigh in at around 35 kilograms.

103. You can see the pins in the red boxes above that are supposed to be placed in the holes of the bracket.
     Mounting on the wall

104. Take your wall mount and bring it close to the wall, slightly above the wall bracket, as the picture above shows. Carefully let it slide down into the holes of the bracket. We strongly recommend that you are two adults doing this steps as a fully equipped wall mount is heavy.

105. Make sure to hold your wall mount securely when doing this in case you missed the holes. it can be hard to see if you have placed it correctly, this is the reason also to have two adults involved in mounting on the wall.

106. Once the pins are fit into the bracket holes your wall mount is set.

107. In the picture above you can see it from another angle.
     Side panels

108. The side panels will be mounted to the wall distances on the left and right side. There are 4 pieces of M4 8mm screws included for these parts.

109. The side panels are mounted as shown in the picture above.

110. Use two of the M4 8mm screws on each side. One at the top and one at the bottom.

111. Before you tighten the screws, put the side panels in place and make sure that they fit smoothly.
     Side panels / Glass cover

112. Place the side panel on the side and secure it with the two screws (upper and lower part of side panel) – 2 pieces of M4xSmm.

113. This is what it should look like with the side panel in place.

114. Repeat the procedure on the other side.

115. The last part to assemble is the glass cover.
     Glass cover

116. If you have the knobs for the glass cover on, you need to remove all four of them.

117. Place the plastic washers on the threaded screw sticking out from the glass distance, repeat on all four glass distances. Then carefully place the glass on the protruding screws.

118. Place the second second of plastic washers on the protruding screws on the outside of the glass distance, then put back the knobs and tighten them carefully. Just enough for the glass to be locked in place.

119.  Start at the top and work your way down. Here we are, after a long journey! Your Crow is Finally done!
     THE CROW
     Congratulations! Your set is done! Of course there is the whole part of designing your loop and placing your components as well, but that we leave for you to do. After all, it is your piece of art!
