Unpacking and Assembly 

Tools Required: (2) ¾” end wrenches or equivalent, (2) 9/16” end wrenches or 

equivalent, knife to remove packing material 

1. Remove

 all of the Tracksetter components from the box and discard any packing material.

2. Remove 

flange bearings from their packaging.  Holding bearing together as it comes out of the

bag, place each bearing onto post located at the bottom of the actuator.  Line the actuator up with the
raised end of the actuator arm.  Actuator motor should face away from arm.  Rotate bearing flanges
into the actuator arm until you are able to insert the 3/8” x3/4” hex bolts through the top set of holes
on the arm and the bottom set of holes on the bearing flanges.  Attach nuts until finger tight.  Now
rotate loose end of the bearing flanges towards the actuator motor while pivoting the top of the
actuator towards the arm.  Eventually, the remaining sets of holes will line up.  Insert hex bolts and
nuts. Tighten all fasteners.

Assemble

 the three main components as shown in the pictures, using the ½” x 6” Hex Bolt,

 

bronze bushings and the locknut. The lock nut need only be tightened to the point that it engages the

 

nylon locking threads. It acts as a pivot pin only and therefore it is NOT necessary to tighten to the

 

point that it is snug against the arms on the clamp assembly. There should be play between the

 

components that this bolt passes thru to allow for free rotation. Please note that this pivot has been
