2. Assembling the model
Depending whether you work with the Steam Box D100 E or you already
have a fixed model this chapter continues with putting together the steam
engine model. The following chapter shows experiments with an already
existent steam engine model.
2.1 Tricks and tips for a successful assembling
Sometimes it seems a little difficult to screw in some screws in an
inaccessible positions, like in the area of the flywheel. It is very useful to fix
a little magnet on the screwdriver so that it becomes magnetised. Now the
screw can easily be lead to the prepared drilled hole.
Fig.2.01:
Screwdriver becomes
magnetised and holds the
screw.
To tighten the screw properly it makes sense to use the screwdriver on the
one side and on the other side hold the screw-nut with a spanner.
It is helpful to put all the small pieces like screws, nuts and seals into a flat
container so they do not get lost.
How to lubricate the moving parts:
A good service brings a small disposable syringe, with a blunt needle (the
peak of the needle can be cut of or grinded down). This allows injecting the
steam engine oil well measured onto the oil needing parts.
Do not use any liquid oil for lubricating the piston and cylinder. Please
only use Wilesco steam engine oil.
