Assembly instructions, figure 18 (C or C-3):
Fasten the transparent cover for the cardan shaft in the chassis pan.
Important!
Make sure that among the screws there is a countersunk screw, which must be installed in the right place
(see figure). Otherwise, not only will the cover be damaged, but the screw protruding further can cause
problems during installation of a motor.
Assembly instructions, figure 19 (G-1):
Secure the front bumper bar to the support arm with two M3 x 12 screws.
Assembly instructions, figure 20 (G-2):
Fasten the aluminium base plate to the bumper bar in the correct orientation using two M3 x 10 countersunk screws.
Assembly instructions, figure 21 (H-1):
The figure shows the assembly of the front suspension arms. You will need a 5 mm hexagon socket wrench to screw
the plastic set screws into the steering knuckle. Make sure that the plastic set screws are oriented correctly.
First, securely tighten the inserts with care. Then loosen the inserts until the ball heads of the metal screws ("pivot ball"
screw) can be moved easily without any play in the bearing.
Important!
The suspension arms must be mounted as shown in figures 21 and 22 such that they fit the left (L) and right
(R) side. Since the upper suspension arm is shorter, the pivot ball holders are offset.
Figure 21 shows a detailed view of the left (L) steering knuckle; note the arrow on the small plastic lug.
Use a 2.5 mm hexagon socket wrench to screw the pivot ball screws about 2/3 into the suspension arms, leaving
approx. two to three threads exposed. Then, finely adjust the chassis.
Two upper and two lower suspension arms use structurally identical plastic parts.
Insert the respective ball bearings in each of the two steering knuckles.
Assembly instructions, figure 22 (H-2):
Clip a snap ring onto each of the two thin metal axles using needle-nose pliers. Then assemble the front suspension
arm, paying attention to the orientation of the left and right suspension arms. Finally, clip the two remaining snap rings
onto the ends of the two metal axles.
Then insert the wheel axles from the inside. The wheel axle has a hole into which the drive pin is to be inserted.
Finally, attach the wheel hub nut in the correct orientation (a slot on one side of the wheel hub nut must exactly match
the drive pin). Do not use any force.
