PLAYER LOCATION
The MCD 7005 may be installed in a Mclntosh
cabinet or custom installed in furniture of your choice.
Always provide adequate ventilation. Never place it
above heat generating components such as high
powered amplifiers. Provide 1½ inches (3 cm) of space
above the player so as not to interfere with a cooling air
flow. Always use the compact disc player horizontally,
out of direct sunlight and away from other heat sources.
REMOVE THE TRANSIT SCREWS
On the bottom of the player are two screws which
lock the player mechanism to protect it during transpor-
tation. Remove these screws and keep them in a safe
place. To prevent damage, these screws must be replac-
ed if the player is to be transported.
CUSTOM INSTALLATION
The PANLOC system of installing equipment conve-
niently and securely, is a product of Mclntosh research.
Turned clockwise, the PANLOC buttons on the front
panel lock firmly in place. A counterclockwise turn of
the PANLOC buttons unlocks the chassis from its moun-
ting.
To install the instrument in a Mclntosh cabinet, follow
the instructions that are enclosed with the cabinet. For
any other type of installation follow these instructions:
1. Unpack from Carton
Open the carton and remove the PANLOC brackets,
hardware package, and mounting template. Remove the
instrument from its plastic bag and place it upside down
on the shipping pallet. Unscrew the four plastic feet
from the bottom of the chassis and unscrew and
remove the transit screws. Unless the transit screws are
in place when the instrument is transported, damage
can occur. Keep the transit screws in a safe place.
2. Mark the Cabinet Panel.
Tape the mounting template in position on the cabinet
panel where the instrument is to be installed. The
broken lines that represent the outline of the rec-
tangular cutout also represent the outside dimensions of
the chassis. Make sure these lines clear shelves, parti-
tions, or any equipment. With the template in place,
first mark the six A and B holes and the four small holes
that locate the corners of the cutout. Then, join the four
corner markings with pencil lines, using the edge of the
template as a straightedge.
3. Drill Holes
Use a drill with a 3/16 inch (5 mm) bit held perpen-
dicular to the panel and drill the six A and 8 holes.
Then, using a drill bit slightly larger than the tip of your
saw blade, drill one hole at each of two diagonally op-
posite corners. The holes should barely touch the inside
edge of the penciled outline. Before taking the next
step, make sure that the six A and B holes have been
drilled.
4. Saw the Panel Cutout
Saw carefully on the inside of the penciled lines. First
make the two long cuts and then the two short cuts.
After the rectangular opening has been cut out, use a
file to square the corners and smooth any irregularities
in the cut edges.
5. Install the Mounting Strips
In the hardware package you will find two mounting
strips, and two sets of machine screws. For panels that
are less than 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) thick, use the 3/4 inch
(19.1 mm) screws; for panels that are more than 1/2
inch (12.7 mm) thick, use the 1-1/4 inch (31.8 mm)
screws.
Starting at the right-hand side of the panel, insert a
screw of the proper length into the center hole in the
panel, marked B on the template. On the back of the
panel, align a mounting strip with the holes in the panel
and tighten the screw until the screwhead is pulled into
the wood.
Repeat this procedure to attach the mounting strip to
the left side of the panel.
