the parts before starting on particular sub-assembly. There is a complete description of all kit parts under "Kit Contents".
Please check to be sure that your kit is complete; that it is not missing any parts. If you do find that parts are missing, or if you
are having trouble identifying parts please let us know. The pictures in this manual clarify and detail many of the assemblies
shown on the plan, and the two should be used together during construction.
