The transmission shift point has been preset for you from the factory, but it is possible to fine tune the adjustment to suit your driving
style. The shift point is the point at which the 2-speed transmission will shift from first gear to second gear.
●
Adjust the shift point by turning the small grub screw in the aluminum 2-speed clutch housing, using a 1.5mm hex wrench. Turning the
grub screw clockwise will make the transmission shift at a higher speed. Turning the grub screw counterclockwise will make the
transmission shift at a lower speed.
RECOMMENDED INITIAL SETTINGS:
●
The 2-Speed transmission has been preset for you from the factory. No adjustments are necessary.
Step 8: Adjusting the 2-Speed Transmission Shift Point
To adjust the 2-speed transmission, first remove the self-tapping screw that holds the
nylon transmission cover plate in place, then remove the cover plate and set it aside.
With the truck upside down you must locate the small grub screw in the clutch housing. To
locate the screw, slowly rotate the spur gear assembly until the you can see the small grub
screw through the milled access hole in the clutch housing. Once the small grub screw is
visible, use a 1.5mm hex wrench to adjust the grub screw. To make the transmission shift
at a higher speed, turn the grub screw clockwise 1/8th of a turn. To make the transmission
shift at a lower speed, turn the grub screw counterclockwise 1/8th of a turn.

There are two screws in the 2-speed clutch housing. One is a grub screw that uses a 1.5mm hex wrench and the
other is a steel socket-cap screw that uses a 2.5mm hex wrench. Do not attempt to adjust the larger screw. This screw holds the
clutch housing onto the transmission shaft.

We suggest making 1/8th of a turn adjustments at a time, testing the truck's shift point between each adjustment you
make, until you are satisfied with how the truck shifts.
If you need to reset the 2-speed transmission shift point to the factory setting, follow these simple procedures:
●
Carefully turn the grub screw (using a 1.5mm hex wrench) clockwise until it bottoms out, then turn the grub screw counterclockwise
7-3/4 turns (7 full turns plus 3/4 of a turn).

Step 9: Adding Reverse to Your X-Factor2
The X-Factor2 does not come with a transmission that includes reverse, but a separate reversing kit is available from XTM Racing. This
kit comes with everything you need (except a servo and 3 channel radio control system or R-Box Electronic Reverser for use with 2
channel radio control systems) to give your X-Factor2 reverse capability.
Install and set up your XTM Racing X-Factor2 Reversing Kit, using the instruction sheet included with the
reversing kit. The easiest way to operate the reverse function is to use a 3 channel radio control system.
If you don't want to purchase a 3 channel radio control system, you can simply purchase and install the
XTM Racing R-Box Electronic Reverser. The XTM R-Box electronic reverser will shift the transmission
from forward to reverse or from reverse to forward by simply using your transmitter's throttle trigger. The
R-Box incorporates adjustable settings and the delayed response to switching transmission directions
does not interfere with braking control.
Please contact your local XTM Racing dealer or XTM Racing directly for pricing and availability of
the X-Factor2 Reversing Kit and the R-Box Electronic Reverser.
Step 10: Adding 4 Wheel Steering to Your X-Factor2
Adding 4-Wheel steering to your X-Factor2 is easy. You'll need to purchase an extra XTM Racing X-77 servo (P/N 145765), one
servo mount set (P/N 149471), one servo saver (P/N 149719) and one Y-Harness (444728). Install the servo and servo saver exactly
as the front steering system is setup, plug both steering servos into the Y-Harness, then plug the Y-Harness into the steering channel
slot in the receiver.
