BASE ASSEMBLY First, decide on a basic layout, depending upon what kind of course you would lke to create {a besic layout is shown) Next, connect the base units using the connect- ing hooks. Meke sure they are aligned prop- ery: they will not con: nec if put together in the wrong direction. Next, altach base joints to the base, as shown in the picture. ee 2. ELEVATOR ‘ASSEMBLY Insert S¢" and 1" gear shafts in the indicated Positions, making sure each gear is complete. Insert a 13%" long sup- port pole. Slide a K4 on the pole and add K7s ‘one on top of another Be careful that K4-is fight side up. The gears should match as shown in the picture. When you have finished stacking the K7s, insert 3 more support poles (1334") to the indicated positions, fixing their positions with KS, Make sure you have KS right side up. Put KB (on top, and the elevator is complete. KS will be the entrance ‘or exit for your ball. Make ‘sure it aligns with the rails by jiggling it up and down a ltl, # necessary. Fix Alt fo the entrance. When you are finished, test to see that the gears turn smoothly by moving them with your fingers. Ifyou hear a strange sound or if ifs t00 tight to rotate, frst check to see that the elevator is not warped, then adjust the connection of the gears.

This may be helpful. Howevey, there should tbe any oil on the rubber bands.EEE 3, HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE STAIRCASE See Drawing 1 to assem- ble the staircase parts. Assemble Part M10 through M17 in the same way. Drawing 2 shows the assembly of the cam: shaft. Assemble M5 as shown in the drawing, and insert a 7¥6" wire rail Attach the staircase base onto the base, as shown in Drawing 3. See Drawing 4 for assembly of gears. Since there's friction at the staircase, its neces- sary to lubricate a ile the moving paris using the lubricant (included) to facilitate the move- ment. Make a small hole (on top of the lubricator by using a pin, and |u- bricate where indicated. CAUTION: Do not put lubricant on rubber bel. Lubricate the part(s) shown when you see this symbol. & Insert 77" and 1384" support poles where in- dicated on Top View, and assemble the parts on top of the staircase as shown in Drawing 5.

Align the chimes 0 that their height is the same on the rail ER 13, HOW TO ATTACH RAILS Attach rails from below. There is a choice between two courses in the basic layout. * Attach rails arms on each part, referring to the completed picture of the basic layout. To connect rails, use rail joints (36" shatts). Insert them into the holes in the center of the rails. Trim the end of rails neatly so the joint is smooth, When the parts are all assembled, test with 2 ball and adjust accord- ingly.

For exam- ple, check to see that rail arms, cfoss ties (A), ‘support poles and raiis are sel properly: Check that ras are not off the cross tes, and check to see that ral arms are not off the support poles. rae 15, ELEVATOR ENTRANCES AND EXITS: Elevator entrances and exits should be both (on the same side. This reassures continuous driving, The elevator entrance should be located on an upper level, allowing the ball to roll easily down a long path as shown in Drawing 1 Ifthe ball is moving too {ast it may bounce or fall off.
