Electrical Assembly
Electric Shock Hazard – Assembly of electrical components may cause physical harm
due to electric shock.
Burn Hazard – Assembly of electrical components may cause physical harm due to
the high heat required to solder and seal wiring.
NOTE - Due to the custom nature of each order, all robots will require different sizes and lengths
of wire to accomplish a successful assembly of the robot.
Please see the item page for your motor controller to view the listed schematic.
For additional support on wiring, soldering, and crimping, please visit our support pages.

Set Up
May cause physical harm due to pinching.
WARNING
1. Place the robot chassis on blocks so that the wheels can rotate freely.
2. Power on the robot.
3. Power on the RC controller and wait about 10 seconds for the signal to connect.
NOTE - If the controller joysticks are moved before the signal connects it will cause the robot to
move out of control. Take care not to touch the joysticks until after the robot connects to the
controller.
4. After waiting 10 seconds, try moving the joysticks to get a feel for how the robot
responds to the controls.

Operation
After testing the robot on blocks, set the robot on the ground and begin to drive.
Additional Equipment
Additional equipment may have been ordered with the robot. If so, a detailed description
of how to operate the robot with these modifications will be provided.
Training
After operation of the robot up off the ground, only control the robot so that the operator
can always have eyes on the system.
Spend significant amounts of time attempting to accomplish small tasks. This will help
operator to learn how the robot responds to input from controls.
Shutting Down
Turn off the robot, then turn of the RC controller.
Charging
Electric Shock Hazard – Assembly of electrical components may cause physical harm
due to electric shock.
NOTE - In order to charge system components, turn all equipment off.
Robot
Robot will have a specific battery that has been selected through the ordering process.
Ensure that a matching charger is used with the right current rating. Using the wrong
charger could result in hazardous conditions and may cause injury.
Controller
RC controllers typically come with AA batteries. If the system controller has a
rechargeable battery, make sure that the matching charger is used. Using the wrong
charger could result in hazardous conditions and may cause injury.
