Assembly Instructions (6 Steps)
-
Install the Bearing Wheels
Insert the M4×50 screw through the wheel and secure it on the other side with an M4 nut. Do not overtighten. -
Attach to the Bracket
Add gaskets on both sides of the wheel and fit it into the bracket hole, then lock it in place with M4 nuts. -
Mount the Motors
Place each motor into the bracket and secure with three M3×6 flat head screws. -
Assemble the Drive Wheels
Insert the coupling into the drive wheel and fix it using an M3×8 hex socket screw with an Allen key. -
Install the Drive Wheels onto the Motors
Align the coupling hole with the flat end of the motor shaft and tighten using the included screw. -
Fit the Tracks
Remove excess track segments to match the needed length. Use pliers to embed the track pins and complete the installation.
