motor mounting box. Attach the motor to the gearbox
using the screws included with the gearbox (be sure to
read the instructions included with the gearbox). Remove
the brass collar on the gearbox shaft and attach the motor

locking compound. Assemble the box as shown with medium
CA glue (the longer side piece being on the left of the box).

mounting box assembly to the fuse, being sure that the box

mounting box will fi t into the slots in the fi rewall.
