SYSTEM RECONFIGURATION CONTINUED
To reconfigure the robot, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the hex nuts from both axles using the
supplied 5/16" nut driver.
2. Slide the wheels off the axles.
3. Ensure that the gold-colored thrust washers on each
side of the robot are in place before putting on new
wheels.
4. Slide the new wheels onto the axles. If the wheels
have colored hubs (red and green), ensure that the
hub color matches the color band on the shaft.

5. Replace the hex nuts using the 5/16" nut driver.
6. Remove the tail using the 3/32" hex driver. The captive
screws will be retained in the tail. If a screw becomes
detached from the tail, push or screw it back into the
hole in the tail until it can rotate freely.
7. Attach the new tail to the same mounting points
using the 3/32" hex driver. If the tail has an arrow on
the side, it should be pointed up for general use, or
pointed down if a more ground-facing viewing angle
is desired. If the tail does not have an arrow on the
side, then it can only be installed one way; do not try
to force it on upside-down.
8. If using the Carry and Tow configuration: Attach
the Picatinny Rail (as described below) and the tow
disc (if desired; see notes about the Carry and Tow
configuration below). There are two mount points for
the tow disc as shown in the picture below.
