Step 4: Hub Installation - Parallax Stingray Manual

STEP 4: Hub Installation

Parts Required
• (1) Wheel Hub, Aluminum, 6mm Shaft
• (4) Hub Set Screws (included with hubs)
Using the included 1/16" Hex Key, install 2 set screws loosely into each Wheel Hub as shown in the
figure below.
Slide the hub onto the motor shaft so that the screws line up with the flat part of the motor shaft.
The hub should slide all the way onto the shaft with just a small gap (< 1/16") between the hub and
the motor casing protruding through the motor mount plate.
Both set screws should land on the flat part of the motor shaft when tightened down.
Gently tighten the set screws. Be careful not to over-tighten the set screw but make sure it is very
snug or the hub may work loose over time.
Repeat this procedure for the other motor.
