How to open Loctite 242

Do not fully tighten the bolts, you should be able to move the motor mount back and forth

Gather the motor pulley, 2mm allen wrench, keyway, and loctite. 2 Keyways are included because one may not fit.

Place the keyway on the motor shaft, If it does not fit try the other keyway. If neither fit, you may need to lightly sand the keyway with a piece of sandpaper.

Make sure that the grub screws inside the pulley are not visible in the shaft

Hold the keyway with the allen wrench forward towards the end of the shaft

Slide the motor pulley onto the shaft (align the slot in the pulley with the key on the shaft) holding the keyway so it does not slide back

** If the motor pulley does not easily slide onto the shaft, turn the keyway 90 degrees so it lays on its side.  

Align the pulley as shown. There should be a gap between the motor mount and the pulley, and some of the shaft should be visible out the end. 

Remove the two grub screws and add loctite, then reinstall. Do not tighten completely, finger tight is good for now.

Push down with your thumb on the wrench, then use your other two finger to tighten. Do not place your fingers at the end of the wrench or you will strip the head

Gather the right mount, motor hardware, motor, motor pulley, keyway, allen wrenches, and loctite to build another motor mount assembly

Repeat the previous steps to build another motor mount assembly. Remember to use loctite.

Use the 5.5mm allen wrench to remove the motor mount bolts one at a time, add a drop of loctite, and then reinstall for all four bolts.

Remove both lock nuts and one washer from the remaining truck using the T-Tool (red bushings)

Slide the right motor mount on the truck. You may have to loosen the motor mount bolts

Slide the wheel pulleys into both wheels

With one washer on the truck, add the drive wheel. Make sure the motor mount is back far enough and does not interfere with the wheel being pushed COMPLETELY on the truck.

Add the lock nut to the truck with the wheel pushed as far back as it will go.

Use the green motor mount spacer to align the motor mount

Alternate tightening both bolts a small amount at a time. Do not tighten only one bolt. Continually make small turns until both bolts are tight.

Remove the lock nut from the truck and take off the wheel. Remove the wheel pulley  

Move the motor as close as it will go to the truck

Add the belt to the drive pulley and verify that there is still 1 washer on the truck. 

Add the pulley and belt to the truck placing the belt over the motor pulley.

Pull back on the motor to tension the belt

Tighten the screws with the belt tensioned. There should be a small gap visible at the left most screw (not like the picture). This will add less tension to the belt. You should be able to press down on the belt and have it deflect 3-4mm. Make them loose and then tighten as needed. Too tight is not good!  

Add the wheel to the pulley. Be sure to align the spokes and you will need to apply force to get the wheel all the way in place. 

Add a washer and locknut to secure the wheel

Add the left motor mount assembly to repeat the same process

Make sure that there is still 1 washer on the truck, and then add the drivewheel.

Ensure that the wheel is all the way on the truck, and add the locknut and washer

Use the green motor mount spacer to align the motor mount

Alternate tightening both bolts a small amount at a time. Do not tighten only one bolt. Continually make small turns until both bolts are tight.

Remove the lock nut from the truck and take off the wheel and pulley.

Move the motor as close as it will go to the truck

Add the belt to the drive pulley and verify that there is still 1 washer on the truck.

Add the wheel pulley and belt to the truck placing the belt over the motor pulley.

Tension the belt and secure the 4x motor bolts. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE BELT.

Add the wheel

Install the washer and locknut to secure the wheel

If you havnt already, remove the white stickers from the back of the motor. A flathead screwdriver works best

Gather the deck, front truck assembly, drivetrain assembly, 2x risers, and truck hardware.  

Add a riser and secure the back truck with 4x bolts and lock nuts. 

Gather the enclosure, battery, and battery velcro. Install the velcro on the bottom of the battery (side opposite silver sticker)

Place the battery in the enclosure as shown and press firmly to seal the velcro

Gather the charge port and VESC. Remove the physical switch from the VESC (3 wires in middle of PCB) and take off the lock nut off of the charge port and switch.

Place the charge port and switch in their perspective positions on the enclosure.

*The updated batteries do not have the white wires and red connector as shown. 

Install the lock nuts to secure the charge port and switch

Plug in the red charge port to the battery.

Ensure that the on/switch is in the off position (flush)

Place the ESC in the enclosure as shown and press firmly to secure the velcro

Plugin the switch wire back into the ESC

Ensure the switch is still in the off position and then plugin the battery XT60 connector

Place the receiver as shown with VELCRO, top left in picture (sorry for bad photo, will update later) 

Plugin the bluetooth module if you purchased one. No extra programming is required (as stated on the sheet).

Place the enclosure on the board as shown

Plugin the motor sensor wires and yellow MR60 connectors to the ESC. You will need to cross the wires, so the two cables from the left motor need to be plugged into the right side of the VESC, and the right motor gets plugged into the right VESC. Be sure you also cross the sensor wire as well!

We will now need to test that the motors are spinning the right way.

Turn on the board and remote. Make sure all of the motor wires are clear and the motors and wheels can spin freely. 

Turn on the remote and give it some throttle. The wheels should be spinning backwards towards the kit logo.

Turn the board off. If they are spinning backwards properly, DO NOT DO THIS STEP. 

If the wheels are spinning forwards, unplug the motor connectors and switch the sides of the ESC they are plugged into. Then test the direction again with the remote. 

Gather the truck baseplates

Remove the lock nuts using the black T-Tool

Remove a bushing and washer on each baseplate

Insert the truck hangers into the baseplates. The hanger with no logo goes with the red bushings and the hanger with the logo goes with the green bushings.

Add the bushing and washer back to the truck

Tighten the lock nuts onto the truck so that there is a few mm of threads showing. You can tighten/loosen these to make the board more stable at speed (tight) or carveable (loose)

Insert one bearing into the wheel

Place a spacer in the wheel and ensure it is straight up (and stays that way).

Place a bearing in the other side of the wheel.

Repeat for all 4 wheels.

Remove 1 washer and 1 lock nut from each side of the truck with green bushings using the black T-Tool.

Place the wheel on the truck with the words on the wheel facing outward

Place the washer and locknut you removed back on the truck (truck, washer, wheel, washer, locknut)

Repeat for the other wheel.

Gather the left mount, motor hardware, motor, motor pulley, tool kit,

Place the motor on the motor mount as shown, note the direction of the wires

Flip the motor and mount over, and secure the mount to the motor using the 4x M4x10 round head bolts. Use loctite 242 from tool kit.
