The provided manual outlines the assembly and features of the OverPower OP GT, a simulator designed for racing enthusiasts. The manual covers three main components: the OP Frontal Assembly, the OP Wheel & Pedal Rack Pro, and the OP GT Base.
Function Description:
The OverPower OP GT is a modular racing simulator designed to provide a realistic and immersive driving experience. It consists of a frontal assembly that houses the wheel and pedal rack, which in turn connects to a robust base. The system is highly adjustable, allowing users to customize the position of the wheel, pedals, and seat to achieve optimal ergonomics for different driving styles (GT and Formula). The modular design also allows for the integration of additional accessories, such as an electric pedal adjuster and monitor mounts.
Important Technical Specifications:
The simulator utilizes various aluminum profiles (3030, 3060, 3090) for its structural integrity, ensuring a sturdy and durable frame. Slides (M6 and M8) are used extensively for adjustability, allowing components to be moved and locked into desired positions. Screws of different sizes (M5x12, M6x10, M6x20, M6x40, M8x12, M8x20, M8x22, M8x25, M8x40) are used for secure fastening. Washers (M6 and M8) are included to ensure tight connections and prevent damage. The system incorporates linear guides and blocks for smooth and precise movement of the pedal rack. HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) boards are used for the calf board, front boards, and seat base, offering a rigid and aesthetically pleasing finish.

Usage Features:
The OverPower OP GT is designed for ease of assembly and extensive adjustability.
- Assembly: The manual emphasizes following chronological order for assembly to ensure a smooth experience. It suggests reserving 2-4 hours for the entire process and recommends a soft surface (like a carpet) for assembly to prevent cosmetic damage.
- Adjustability: The wheel plate, pedal plate, and seat base are all highly adjustable. The pedal rack, for instance, can be moved using M6 levers and linear guides, allowing for precise positioning. The manual specifically mentions aligning the linear guides with a jig (HC) for optimal setup.
- Ergonomics: While a calf support (J) and cushion (K) are included, they are primarily designed for OP Formula cockpits. For OP GT cockpits, a calf support is not required for excellent ergonomics, but users have the option to install it if desired.
- Modularity: The system supports the installation of an OP Electric Pedal Adjuster, with instructions to add additional M8 slides during the frontal assembly phase. It also mentions the possibility of installing OP Single or Triple Monitor Mounts, requiring the insertion of M8 slides into the 3090 profile.
- Seat Mounting: The base is designed to accommodate various seats. After assembling the base, the seat base is unmounted, turned sideways, and the user's chosen seat is mounted.
Maintenance Features:
The manual provides general guidelines for handling and maintenance during assembly:
- Careful Handling: Users are advised to treat all parts with special care to avoid cosmetic damage during assembly.
- Proper Tightening: Screws should be tightened firmly but not overtightened, as this can damage screws, nuts, threads, and the aluminum and HPL parts.
- Small Parts Safety: The product contains small parts, and users are cautioned to keep them out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.
- Support: In case of missing parts or any issues, users are directed to contact support@overpower.gg for assistance.
The OverPower OP GT aims to be a versatile and user-friendly racing simulator, offering a customizable and robust platform for an enhanced gaming experience.
