II. DETAILED TRACK ASSEMBLY
a.
Your race set makes two different layouts. Refer to the Assembly Map for
detailed track assembly. Start with the Terminal Track
A
and continue
adding track pieces until your layout is complete.
b.
Once your layout is assembled, you’ll need
to add guardrails. Refer to the Assembly Map
for placement. To attach a guardrail: gently
flex the guardrail before attaching it. Carefully
attach the bottom of the guardrail first. Then
pull up and snap into place. Don’t force guard-
rails into place.
1.
There are letters molded into each
track piece. These letters are used in
these instructions to indicate which
track piece goes where. Following the
layout drawings on the Assembly Map,
you may want to lay out your track
– without connecting any track pieces.
That way you’ll be able to see how the
track layout goes together.
2.
To connect track pieces: working on
the flat surface, push the ends of the
track pieces together. Make sure they
snap together securely – you’ll hear a
click when they’re properly connected.
Remember: if the track connections
aren’t right, electric power won’t flow
from one track section to the next.
3.
To disconnect track pieces,
simply reach underneath where the
track pieces meet and press the
locking tabs together with thumb and
forefinger as shown.
Follow the step-by-step instructions to set up your race set.
Please separate the “Assembly Map” page, and keep it handy during assem-
bly. This page contains the contents list and large-scale Layout Drawings of
the fully-assembled track. You’ll need to refer to it as you go.
The Assembly Map looks like this:
