Steps 9-13

Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate (Vibra-TITE) is recommended on all bolts that thread into a tapped hole.

Step 9

The Drive Motor and Rotation Motor can be assembled in any order. However, they must both be installed in the location shown in the images below. Clock motors in the desired direction during this step.

For the Drive Pinion refer back to the Ratio Options page.

Step 10

Combine the assemblies from Steps 2, 8, and 9 as shown below. Refer to the images for the correct bolt and spacer lengths.

Step 11

Install the Encoder Mount using two #10-32 x 1/2”L bolts. Remove the board from the case and fit it into the cutout in the 3D Printed Encoder Mount. Use the top half of the Encoder case and the long thread forming screw from the Encoder to attach the sensor.

Step 12

The Wheel Assemblies can be found using the links below.

Molded Wheel, Aluminum Wheel, Colson Wheel

When installing the Wheel Assembly, be sure the 45T Bevel Gear and 15T Bevel Gear are on the same side.

Before installing the wheel assembly, it is necessary to loosen the fork installed in Step 6 for the wheel to slide past the small bevel gear. We recommend loosening the Fork opposite the bevel gear.

Step 13

Apply Lucas Red "N" Tacky grease to all gears after final assembly to ensure smooth operation and reduce wear during use. Once greased, rotate and spin the wheel to distribute the grease evenly before powering up.

After running gearbox for 15-30 minutes, reapply a light amount of grease. Reapply as needed.

Corner Mounting

For more instructions regarding mounting the Corner Mount modules, see the Corner Mounting section.

It is recommended to use either the Top or Bottom Support Plate to strengthen the corner of your frame.
