Page 13: 6: Assembling The Track
6: Assembling the Track No tools are required to assemble the track. The track must be assembled by two or more people. It is advisable to have two people to support the sections whilst a third person can help align the mating parts. Care must be taken when lifting and positioning the track sections otherwise damage can occur to the track. - Page 14 6: Assembling the Track cont: Locate the Start section of the track. This can be clearly identified by the two circular discs mounted to the underside Take a track support leg and 2 cross braces and assemble the first leg. Ensure the leg has the wider section on the floor and the cable management slots are correctly positioned.
- Page 15 6: Assembling the Track cont: Align the legs so that they are spaced to line up with the discs on the underside of the track. Lift the start section onto the Legs and locate the round discs in the cup created by the top of the Leg and the cross brace.
- Page 16 6: Assembling the Track cont: Lift the Mid section up and place the central rail onto the start section of track, then place the other end onto the support leg. Take care to ensure the leg is correctly positioned with the cable slots at the top and the align- ment tongue fits into the alignment slot on the leg.
- Page 17 6: Assembling the Track cont: Once the sections are pushed together check the alignment of the support leg as this will ensure the faces of the track sections are flush. Page 17...
- Page 18 6: Assembling the Track cont: As each section of track is assembled to the next the track sections should be secured together by inserting the thumb clamping screws provided from the underside of the track. To secure the Start Section to the first Mid Section of track the thumb screw is inserted though a pre drilled hole in the track board as shown below.
- Page 19 6: Assembling the Track cont: To secure the remaining sections of track together use the longer thumb screws which are inserted though the pre drilled holes in the track positioning blocks as shown below. Note: The finish section of track is the last section to be fitted and can be identified as the aluminium sections finish flush with the end of the track and the Emitter and receiver circuits are mounted at the finish line.
- Page 20 6: Assembling the Track cont: When the track is fully assembled the guide lines can be fitted. These are nylon cords to which the cars are attached prior to racing. On both the start and finish sections there are small screws near the edge of the track boards as shown below to which the cord is attached with a loop.
