Steps 9-13
Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate (Vibra-TITE) is recommended on all bolts that thread into a tapped hole.
Step 9
For all configurations, the motors will be mounted to the Motor Spacer using #10-32 x 1/2”L bolts. The pinions are retained using #10-32 x 1/4”L pan head bolts.
Clock the motors in the desired direction in this step.
Step 10
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 11
Install the Drive and Rotation Motors using the #10-32 x 1/2"L bolts as shown below.
Step 12
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.
