Preloading the drive spring

Rotate the bottom cup so that the plastic tab is straight up/away from you (just for reference) to the 12 o'clock position.
Place the spring in the bottom cup so that BOTH of it's tabs are to the left of the bottom cup tab. The lower tab on the spring will be just to the left of the tab (11:30 position) and that means the upper tab of the spring will be around the 10 o'clock position.
Look at the drive cone, you will see the plastic tab in it that is going to engage the spring. Put this tab in the 6 o'clock position so that is closest to you while you put it on the main shaft.
  1. Rotate the drive cone clockwise; until it touches the bottom cup's tab
  2. Lift the drive cone up SLIGHTLY (about 1 mm) while rotating slowly clockwise
  3. If you look closely you'll see that you can BRING THE TOP TAB OF THE SPRING WITH YOU over the bottom cup's tab
  1. Once you are up over the bottom cup tab, snap the drive cone back down
  2. You've successfully preloaded the drive spring
  3. Press down on the drive cone and ROCK IT BACK AND FORTH until you feel it CLICK. Then you'll see that 1/2 mm of drive shaft sticking up above the drive cone's plastic.
  4. Use the supplied screw and snug it down
Your drive cone should now successfully spring back when you turn it clockwise.
Clip the anti-jam spring onto the side by putting it's "big wind" on the outside in the recess.
 
 
 
Please note the correct wire / connector orientation!
 
Note the routing of the wires to each specific side of the gearbox cover.
The drive assembly is now ready for the body.
 
Select the LEFT side of the body. Everything will be assembled in BODY LEFT.
 
Note in the image how the LED lense on the backplate OVERLAPS one of the capicitors on the circuit board. If you are not careful, you can break this capacitor off the board. When removing, turn the board or the backplate slightly so that you can easily slip the LED lense by the capacitor without doing any damage.
