Slide a 1” x 1” tube plug into the tube plug adapter. Then slide both into the tubing. Align the tapped holes on the sides of the tube plug with the clearance holes in the tubing. Install the two #10-32 x 3/8”L BHCS.
Repeat this step on all 1” x 1” x1/16” tubing that has the same hole pattern on the ends. There will be five plugs and adapters in total that need to be installed.
Some plugs may not be a slip fit and may need to be tapped in with a mallet. This is due to the inconsistency with the tubing.
Place tubing on a flat surface as shown below. All #10-32 rivnuts should be facing down.
Install the four #10-32 x 3/8”L BHCS screws into each tubing plug in the locations shown below.
Repeat this step with the other set of tubing. There should be two identical assemblies after this step.
Assembly for this step will be easier if all components are placed on a table so that there is access to the side holes.
Attach the magnet and magnet mount using the two #10-32 bolts as shown below. The 3/4”L bolt will thread into the tube plug but the 1.5”L bolt will thread into the Top Plastic Panel in a later step.
Repeat this step on the opposite end of this tube.
Repeat on the other Tube 4 as well. There should be two identical pieces after this step.
Install the tubes as shown below using four #10-32 x 3/8”L bolts. Tube 5 will get an additional bolt on each end that will go on the bottom side of the tube and thread into the tube plug, shown in Detail A.
Tube 4 is the assembly from Step 3 with the magnets facing down.
