1. Unpacking

1. Your robot may come in a crate or carry case. As you unpack your robot, take note of how everything fits into the
package so that you may safely transport or store your system for future use.
2. Depending on what items were purchased, some components may come already attached to your robot.
3. A printed manual will also be included with your system.
4. Check that all your ordered items are included in the package.

2. Mechanical Assembly

WARNING: Pinch Hazard – use caution when assembling the motor
and drive wheels.
Note: Place the robot's chassis on a clear workstation or space. Ensure that you
can access the interior of the chassis.
A. Motor Mount (Fig. 2A.1)
1. Begin by mounting the motor assembly onto the chassis using provided
M4 screws and washers (see Fig 2a.1). We recommend using Loctite on the
M4 screws.
2. Slide the sprocket head onto the motor shaft, with the sprocket hub
facing the motor (Fig 2a.2). Use the sprocket set screws to attach the
sprocket to the shaft, but leave slightly loose for now.
A. Drive Wheels (Fig. 2B.1)
1. The drive shaft runs through 4 separate openings in the rear of the
chassis, two on the external walls and two on the internal walls with lock
collars. Insert the drive shaft through the first external hole, pausing before
you reach the lock collar. (Fig 2b.1)
2. Put one shaft collar and the
Drive Wheel onto the shaft, then
pass the shaft through the lock
collar and internal wall. (Fig 2b.2)
3. When you reach the opposite
wall, you will mirror the placement
of the Drive wheel and shaft collar.

C. Mount Omni Wheel Caster (Fig 2c.1)
1. Slide 3/8" bolt through the hole in the chassis, then through the shaft
collar and Omni Wheel Caster.
2. Secure in place (side to side) with shaft collars, allowing wheel to spin
freely but minimizing side to side play.
3. Secure 3/8" bolt in place with lock nut.
D. Mount Batteries (Fig 2d.1)
1. Mount batteries in place with provided brackets. Foam can be placed
between bracket and battery if a tighter fit is needed.
STOP. DO NOT CONTINUE TO NEXT STEP UNTIL YOU HAVE MEASURED, CUT, AND
INSTALLED THE CHAIN FOR THE MOTOR. SEE SECTION 3 FOR STEPS ON CHAIN
MEASURING AND MOUNTING.
E. Side Covers (Fig 2e.1)
1. Mount side covers onto chassis to cover up side slots on the chassis.
