pot lugs are usually numbered like this...

so attach the corresponding numbers.

For the SW1-3, I'd say you don't need anything on them for the EB to work. They are likely for lofi/chaos/noise modes.

Thanks,

Is their anything thats special i need to know about the pot hook ups for the volume. It says output- volume pot 3. If i'm correct the volume pot 2 comes from the foot switch. So where does volume 1 go to?

So does the control pot 2 to go to the solder pad that says input, or is this a correct way of wiring it up?

I'm not familiar with the kit, but looking at the schematic you need to connect the guitar signal "send" from the footswitch to lug 2 of the 100k pot: I think you can igore the pad marked "in" on the board.
