Center Body Pre-Assembly
1. Un-wrap the Center Body. The magnets and weights are installed, halves joined and joint
sanded.
2. Remove the 4 smaller pieces from Bag B.
3. Dry fit the end pieces (flat with a small pipe attached) to the corresponding ends where the
pipe matches the sides.
4. Remove the end pieces, apply CA to the end of the body and re-install the end pieces.
5. Dry fit the remaining 2 End Pivots to the bottom ends of the body. Please note these pieces
are not completely symmetrical. One side is flatter. This side goes toward the center of the
body.
6. Remove the End Pivots, apply CA to the joint area on the body, and re-install the End Pivots.
7. While the seam running lengthwise down the middle of the body has already been sanded,
you may want to finish this to your satisfaction before proceeding. HINT: Spraying a little primer
on the seam will make any imperfections more visible. HINT: If you add any filler or primer, wet
sand with 400 grit sandpaper or finer grit. Do not use anything coarser than 400 grit paper.
