Here you can see how the leaf springs and

links t together, secured by the 2 × 6mm

screws and nuts.

Insert a 4.5mm bush

into the front hole of

the rear equalising

bars. Then, take

the second wheel

leaf spring and

place over the

underframe, so the

bottom of the links

are positioned over

the ends of the

equalising bars.

Pass a 2 × 8mm

screw through the

hole and secure

with a nut. Repeat

this step to t the

other rst wheel

leaf spring to the

right side of the

underframe.

Pass a 2 × 8mm screw through the hole

in the rear link and equalising bar, and

secure with a nut. Repeat this step to t

the right second wheel leaf spring on the

other side.

Take one of the rst wheel leaf

springs and place over the

underframe, inside the motion

frame. Place a 3.5mm bush between

the underframe and the end of the

short link.

Fit the third wheel leaf springs to the rear holes of the

rear equalising bars. The holes in the equalising bars

should all have a 4.5mm bush in them.

Place the links over the ends of

the springs and pass a screw

up through the aligned holes.

Tighten a nut onto the end of

the screw. Repeat this process,

following the photo in the

previous step to assemble all

the leaf springs.

Assemble axle boxes A and B as shown

above. Complete the four sets.

Take one of the axle boxes and slide

it up into the gap in the underframe,

positioning the frame in the grooves

at the side of the axle box.

Test-t the remaining

three axle boxes in the

other spaces in the

underframe.

Your parts

2 3

Place the assembled axle boxes

over the axles of the wheels,

inside the washer at each end

of the axle, with the long part of

axle box A closer to the wheels.

Place an axle box guard onto

the underframe, aligning the

holes with those on either side

of the axle box.

Turn the

underframe over

and lower the axle

boxes back into

place, as shown.

When lifting the underframe to t the

axle boxes and wheels, don’t lift it at the

rear, as the weight of the front may cause

distortion, and the two sides of the frame

may get squeezed together. Instead,

carefully lift the underframe at both ends.

Disassemble the rst

wheels from Stage 3.

Fit the remaining

two axle boxes to

the rst wheels.

Then t them all

into place, securing

them with an axle

box guard and two

2 × 5mm screws.

Tighten a 2 × 5mm screw

into each of the four

circled holes.

Secure with masking tape

Axle box Third wheelsRear side rod

Assemble the axle boxes over the axle of the third

wheels and temporarily secure with masking tape.

Repeat this

to secure the

other ve leaf

springs to the

corresponding

axle boxes.

Secure the leaf spring to the

long part of the axle box with

a 2 × 7mm screw (Stage 21),

as shown.

Identify the two types of

bush: the shorter ones

with smaller central

holes and the longer

with the larger holes.

Insert the rear end

of the coupling rod

into the front of the

connecting rod. Push

a small bush through

the aligned holes, then

pass a 2 × 6mm screw

through the bush and

holes, and tighten a

nut onto the end of

the screw.

Prepare and lay out the

parts from this stage and

Stage 3, as shown in

the photo, right.

Position the assembly from Step 3

along with the three bushes needed

and two rod pins, as shown.

Place the hole at the rear of the coupling

rod over the pin projecting from the

second wheel, then place the bush

(Stage 22) between them. Repeat this

step for the other side of the model.

Insert a bush into the hole in the rod and

then place the rod pin into the bush,

then tighten it into the wheel. Do this for

the third wheel as well.

Place crosshead A onto

crosshead B, inserting the

pin into the hole in the

connecting rod.

Place a bush onto

the crankpin.

Place the hole at

the rear of the left

connecting rod over

the crankpin and place

the front end of the

bar into the crosshead.

Tighten a 2 × 7mm screw into an

eccentric arm, as shown.

Place the eccentric

arm onto the crank

pin, as shown.

Rotate the arm so

the top is about 10

degrees closer to

the front. Tighten

the screw (circled)

to hold the arm in

place. Repeat Steps

2-4 on the right

side of the model.

Assemble a second set of the expansion link

central plate and an eccentric rod. To tell the left

and right assemblies apart in the future, tighten

the screws from the opposite side.
