Items Required: C-Clamps, Screws, Bolt & Screw driver.

Instructions:

  1. Take a pair of C clamps. Align the servo cut present in the C-clamps with each other as shown Then grab the C-Clamp in your right hand as shown and rotate forward
  2. Repeat the same for another pair of C - Clamp. Once done, you will have 2 C -Clamps wherein the servo horn groove is pointing away from you
  3. Repeat the same for another pair of C - Clamp. Once done, you will have 2 C -Clamps wherein the servo horn groove is pointing towards you.
  4. Once done you’ll have a pair of C - Clamp where the servo horn is pointing towards you & another pair where the servo horn pointing away from you

Items Required: Leg part & Servo motor


Instructions:

  1. Place the output shaft of the servo opposite to the circular extrude of the part , Also make sure that the servo wire slides into the horizontal cut of the part with ease.
  2. Then push the servo into the leg part Once done, Assemble the remaining legs by following the above mentioned steps. Once assembled, you’ll have Servo mounted legs.

Items Required: Servo motor attached leg part and C-Clamp.


Instructions:

  1. Connect the servo horn groove side of the C-Clamp to the servo motor as shown.
  2. Assemble all other pairs by following the steps mentioned above, once done you will have 4 complete leg parts.

Attaching Mounts to Servo

Items Required: Servo motor and mounts.

Instructions:

  1. Make sure that the servo output shaft is pointing opposite to the circular knob of the part , Also place the servo on top of the part support as shown.
  2. Assemble all other pairs by following the steps mentioned above, once done you will have 4 complete servo mounts as shown below.

Point to note:

  1. there are two different types of servo mount. This is because the joint that connects chassis and legs (similar to our thigh joint) is slightly different with respect to legs. Hence, make sure you place the servo correctly with respect to the circular knob present on the part as shown

Items Required:

  1. Chassis, Fully connected leg joint, mounted servo, screws & screw driver.

Instructions:

  1. Make sure that the servo output shaft along with the servo mount is placed on topside of the chassis, Also note that the servo output shaft should always be kept to the edge of the chassis and the servo wire should face outwards.
  2. For the crawler, note that the following combinations should be followed while connecting leg, The L1,L2,L3 and L4 markings are on the chassis, and the square and circle markings are on the shoulder and knee parts.
  3. For the L1 part, attach the shoulder part with the square marking on it , the square marking on the shoulder part should face outwards. Mount the screws from the bottom of the chassis to the top of the output of the servo.
  4. Once the bolts are fastened, attach the knee part with the circle marking on it to the shoulder part
  5. Make sure that the circle marking on the knee part is facing upwards and is corresponding to the shoulder part
  6. Fasten both the servo horn support screw and the output shaft screw.

Point to note:

  1. The white groove on the C-Clamp should be facing you as indicated via black circle, The curved part of legs (knee) should face inside the chassis.
  2. Also make sure to take the servo wires to the top of the chassis via the cuts given in the chassis ,Once done, Your Crawler is ready to be calibrated, programmed and used.
