Step 7. Place the motor plate (127) against the motor (not
included) so that the shaft on the motor is centered in the large hole
in the motor plate (127) and the flat surface of the motor plate rests
against the motor as shown in Figure 58. Align the holes in the motor
plate (127) with the holes in the motor as indicated in Figure 58.
!
Step 8. Secure the motor plate (127) to the motor by threading the
screws (128) through the two holes in the motor plate (127), and
tightening..
If there are two sets of holes in the motor, thread the screws into
the set of holes that will allow the power tabs to face the speed
control (ESC) with the motor in its lowest position in the chassis.
This is the optimal location for your vehicle.
!
Step 9. Attach the pinion gear (not included) to the motor shaft
with the tooth section of the gear away from the motor as shown.
!
Step 10. Press two threaded inserts (131) into the bottom of the
chassis (27) in the holes with the hex. Be sure that you line up the hex
on the insert (131) with the hex in the bottom of the chassis (27). The
inserts (131) should be installed in the direction shown in Figure 59.
!
Step 11. Install the motor plate (127), with the motor attached, in
the groove on the left side of the chassis (27). Check alignment of the
pinion gear with the spur gear (36). If the two gears don't align
properly, remove the motor and adjust the position of the pinion gear.
Check again for proper alignment.
!
Step 12. Once the pinion gear is properly aligned with the spur
gear (36), place the motor clamp (130) over the motor plate as shown.
Slide a ball stud washer (129) over each of the 4-40 x 1.5" cap head
screws (132). Thread a 4-40 x 1.5" cap head screw (132) through the
two holes in the motor clamp (130) into the threaded inserts (131) in
the chassis (27), but don't tighten the screws (132) yet. Check the
gear mesh through the opening in the right side of the chassis (27).
To adjust the gear mesh, rotate the motor - clockwise to loosen the
gear mesh; and counter-clockwise to tighten the gear mesh. Once the
gear mesh has been adjusted, tighten the motor clamp screws (132).
!
Step 13. Insert the rectangular, gear mesh access plug (133),
bevelled side first, in the opening on the right side of the chassis (27).
The gears need a small amount of backlash in order to function
properly.
