Method for manufacturing circuit board, circuit board, and cover member

A method for manufacturing a circuit board including a wiring board that has a hole in which a body portion of a component is disposed in an inserted state, the method comprising:

• inserting either a first claw or a second claw through a notch formed by notching an edge of the hole, the first claw and the second claw being provided on a wall portion of a cover member that covers the body portion from a soldering surface side, the first claw and the second claw projecting outward from the wall portion;
• holding the cover member on the wiring board, by sliding the cover member relative to the wiring board in a direction along a component mounting surface of the wiring board to position the edge of the hole between the first claw and the second claw provided on a surface of the wall portion identical to a surface on which the first claw is provided;
• inserting the body portion into the hole, and disposing an electrode terminal of the body portion on the wiring board;
• applying solder, by flow soldering, to the wiring board on which the cover member is held;
• and
• detaching the cover member from the wiring board, by sliding the cover member relative to the wiring board to which solder has been applied to shift the first claw from the component mounting surface side to the soldering surface side with the first claw passing through the notch.
