Mantis Z Arm
Assembly
Guide
Once the wires are through the arm, remove the string and attach the motor mount and mo
-
tor to the arm. DO NOT overtighten motor mount bolts!
Next you must fit the brace plates over the welds, one either side. These holes can be tight
and bolts hard to align, but by turning the bolt you can use it to cut a tight fit in the carbon of
the plate and aluminium of the arm.
IMPORTANT!
Ensure the two bolts on the inside of the bend in the arm go under the motor wires. By doing
so you will help protect the wires from rubbing on the sharp edge of the inside of the bend,
as they will rest on the bolts themselves.
Once all four bolts are in place, fit washers and nylock nuts to the other end and tighten.
DO NOT overtighten or you risk damaging the arm!
Repeat the process for both bends in the Z arm.
