Insert and glue ring 791 in base 2360, insert the ends of profile 792 in the small
signs engraved on the side wall of the turret as shown by the red arrows in the detail.

The picture shows the turret with its newly assembled radar device. Correctly
orient the radar by placing the straight and long side of grating 880 upwards; plate
882a will be the point of attachment to the front wall of the turret (red arrow). Keep
the two structures aside without gluing them, they will first be painted, then glued
together, finally assembled on the front control station.
386
Glue profile 794 to the rear of the turret.
388
Fold the long sides of grating 880a upwards and insert piece 882a into the cen-
tral joints of crossbars 880a and 881a as shown in the picture.
385
In the same way, glue profile 793 on the other side of the turret symmetrically.
387
Now move to the photo-etched pieces (sheet 1557) shown in the picture, which
you will need to prepare the radar device to be assembled on the front wall of the
newly assembled bow turret. Fold one of the two short sides of grating 880a upwards,
insert one end of piece 881a into the sixth slot of the lattice and glue. Bend the other
short side by inserting the other end of piece 881a into the sixth slot; then glue.
