- Drill a central 1.5 mm ø hole in two railing stanchions 16.15
and file back two others in the centre as shown.
- Bend the handrail 16.16 to the shape shown in the drawing,
and assemble the railing and split pins 16.17 on the conning
tower. Position and align the railing carefully, noting the posi-
tion of the holes and slots.
- Bend the rail 16.18 to shape and plug it into the drilled and
slotted stanchions.
- Insert the flagstock 16.19 and the stern light holder 16.20.
- Align the railing components accurately and solder the parts
together carefully. Use a hot soldering iron applied for as
short a time as possible to avoid damaging the plastic parts.
- Cut slots in both sides of the upper deflector flange for the
ends of the handrail and glue the ends in the slots.
- Drill the four 1.5 mm holes for the antenna hooks.
- Apply a fillet of glue round the railing stanchions inside the
bottom conning tower section.
- Cut down the lamp cases 16.21 as shown, paint them and
glue them to the conning tower.
- Drill 1.5 mm ø horizontal holes in the periscope bases 16.22
at the stated height X.
- Fit the screws 16.23 and 16.24 in the bases.
- Fit the nuts 16.25 on the front end of the screws; screw them
in flush and secure them with a drop of glue.
- Trim the periscopes 16.26 and 16.27 as shown in the dra-
wing and glue them in the periscope bases.
- Carefully position the periscope bases on the conning tower
and glue them in place (F).
- Insert the hydroplane control mechanism in the tubular rivet
11.2. Tighten the screw 16.24 to the point where the hydro-
