INTRODUCTION TO YOUR GOBLIN G2 KIT CAR
3
•
Welcome to your Goblin G2. We hope you enjoy the Greenpower experience!
•
The key objective of building a Goblin is to encourage an appreciation and understanding of
engineering and technology by the pupils involved. We recommend you involve a local engineer
during the build to advise on technical matters and to act as a team mentor.
•
If you have a large number of pupils involved, we suggest you divide them into a number of teams
to work on different areas of the build such as Chassis Team, Front Axle Team, Steering Team, Rear
Axle Team, Wiring Team and Bodywork Team. Each team can then operate separately from the
others coming together for the final assembly.
•
The method of assembly is basically clean and hence the project can safely take place in a
classroom. Be aware that some parts may be covered in a light film of oil to prevent corrosion. It is
advisable to use gloves when handling these parts.
•
Remember that the completed car will need to be stored somewhere dry and batteries, after use,
should be recharged and stored fully charged to maintain performance.
•
Please ensure that pupils are carefully introduced to the tools used and that they use the correct
tools for the various jobs.
•
Before any driving takes place please read the Test Driving and Driver Training page of this manual.
