Assembly instructions are interchangeable between all sizes of the GreyT Top Block. For the purposes of this User Guide, the 2” GreyT Top Block is used as an example.
Blue Loctite (McMaster P/N 1004A12) is recommended on all bolts that thread into a tapped hole.
The 1/4” ID x 5/8” OD bearings will sit in the slots in the Top Block. A ziptie can be used to hold the 1/4” Dowel Pin in place to make assembly of the Top Block easier.
