EMPORARY ASSEMBLY

Form the basic chassis by assembling the 2 sides, 2 ends, 4 motors, switch, and power LED: 

 

Attach all 4 of the plastic motor braces to the aluminum end pieces using the supplied #6 x 5/8” 
flat head sheet metal screws and a #2 Phillips screwdriver. 

 

Slide the motors into the motor bores, until just the black head of the motor (where the shaft 
comes out) is extending beyond the side of the robot. 

 

 

Loosely install 4 of the 10‐24 x 3/4 socket head cap screws in the lower holes on each end (e.g. 
floppily) to connect the ends to the sides.  There is no up/down/left/right.  All of the sides and 
ends can be used in any position (the large hollowed out areas go towards the insides). 

 

Snug (e.g., finger tight) the 4 screws so the motors are temporarily held in place. 

 

Attach the aluminum bottom plate to the chassis using 4 of the M3x6mm machine screws and 
the included Torx screwdriver.
