Final Installation:Remove one base screw, apply a half drop (if possible) of blue Loctite to the threads of the screw, and reinstall the screw before moving on and repeating the process with each additional screw one at a time. If you are using a torque wrench (the best way to do this...
To install vertically, apply thread locker to the male threads on the displacer arm, and simply attach the displacer assembly to the displacer arm. For horizontal orientation, remove the rod assembly from the displacer, apply thread locker to the male threads on the arm and connect the displac...
I combined these 2 methods by applying grease to only the rear 50% threads (yes, it’s a bit fiddly – you can use a brush to apply the grease or your finger through the other side of the frame) and Loctite to the front 50% threads as explained below. Right bottom bracket shell wi...
It is also important that the arm running across the top of the engine area has threads on either end. This way the heim joints can be screwed in or out to adjust the amount of right and left turn in the wheels. In The pic entitled: "Steering arm", you can see how this system ...
Torque to approximately 40 foot/pounds, and for extra insurance that the nuts will not loosen, apply Loctite to the stud threads before tightening. Replace the sub-frame brace. Reinstall the bolts loosely, then torque them to about 55 foot/pounds once they are all threaded. For more step-...
Loctite Heavy Duty Epoxy: This epoxy seems to be a “common” epoxy that should work with PVC and wood. Marine Epoxy: some users recommend marine epoxy because it can combine two different materials and its highly durable. Generic Epoxy Formulations: Most generic epoxy formulations should fit we...
I will treat all of them, just to be sure. In the meantime I got some super glue. I bet you've never heard about these brands (me neither) Mostly you can get here (Czech Republic) consumer Loctite glue (gel and non-gel variant), but I was avoiding this brand as s...
If the torque specification is made assuming the bolt is lubricated before assembly, than the service information would likely specify to apply a specific lubricant on the threads before assembly. Even with the unknowns, I can determine a ratio, assuming I'm using the same bolt in both ...
It’s highly recommended to use threadlocker (such as Loctite) on the motor screws, as vibrations can cause them to loosen over time. Some motors come with threadlocker pre-applied (appearing as a blue coating on the threads), but the ECO II motors do not, so you’ll need to apply ...
Don't over-tighten the screws as it's easy to strip the threads on both the screws and the bottom case. Apply just enough force to make them snug. Step 14: Reconnect the PCB ribbon cable This is perhaps the most difficult and fiddly step of reassembly. You'll need to reconnect the ...
