ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
MOTOR ADAPTOR
1. Lightly sand the motor adaptor tube and then slide an
adaptor ring onto the tube until the end of the ring is flush
with the end of the tube. This ring marks the front end of
the adaptor tube. Slide the other adaptor ring onto the
other end of the adaptor tube until the back edge of the
ring is 3/4" (19 mm) from the back end of the tube. Apply
beads of cement where the rings meet the adaptor tube.
2. Insert the "E" motor spacer tube into the motor adaptor
tube and position it at the front end of the adaptor tube. DO
NOT cement in place.
(Use medium viscosity cyanoacrylate cement.)
