MOUNTING THE SERVO
Secure the servo to the
#8435 blocks with four
#4145 screws and four
#7337 #4 washers.
DRILL SERVO SAVER
Use your #34 or 3/32" drill
bit to carefully drill the two
mounting holes for the
#4448 ball ends.
ASSEMBLING THE
SERVO SAVER
Thread two #4448 ball ends
into the front side of the
#8445 servo saver. Secure
the ball ends with the
#4449 locknuts.
Try the three #8445

MOUNTING THE SERVO ASSEMBLY
Mount the servo saver to the servo with
the #3760 screw.
Note:
If you have a
metal gear servo, use the stock
mounting screw.
If necessary, drill the chassis holes for
your servo mounting blocks with a drill
bit. We strongly recommend using 82
deg. countersink (or the tip of a 1/4" drill
bit).
Mount the servo mounting blocks to the
chassis with two #6292 screws. If you
have more than one set of holes, use
the forward holes.

STEERING LINKAGE
Install the plastic ball cups onto the steering turnbuckles. The
dimension from ball cup to ball cup differs between 1:10 kits.
Refer to your manual for the correct dimension.
Snap one ball cup onto the ball end on the servo saver. Snap
the opposite end on as shown. Install both turnbuckles.
When you are adjusting your turnbuckles, always make sure
that the servo saver is pointing straight down.
