The MK4 optics tray prepared for TM2 (as per ITA6082) had an undersized bore for the banana plug, making insertion of the plug extremely difficult / impossible.
Reference stores parts were collected to check the fit: male plug 3-4/01152 and female jack 1-6/1201. The size of the female jack was checked with a #21 drill at .159".
The bore on the optics tray was drilled out dry using the #21 drill to the same depth as the original blind hole, by Maico and Dan McDonald. Chips were carefully collected in a rag, and the hole was blown out with compressed air.
The fit was checked to be snug but possible, using the male plug and the Remote Handling ultem base (ref ITA6023).
