CHAPTER 13 Assembly & Disassembly
Interchanging or removing the body:
1. Remove the upper robot (top).
2. Remove the four nuts under the front and rear bumper that hold the body on the frame. You
will need a 3/8” socket or wrench.
3. Disconnect the headlights wire and microphone wire from the transmitter.
4. Disconnect the speaker wires at the white in line connector.
5. Lift the body off the frame.
6. Install the new body, re-connect the wires and put the nuts back on under the bumpers.
7. Put the upper robot on; connect the 37-pin connection and pop the body latch pins outward
to hold the top on.
Installing or removing the upper robot on the lower:
1. Set the upper robot on the lower robot body.
2. Connect the 37-pin connector that is a round connector and wire bundle running from the
upper robot to the lower robot. When connecting this rotate it until it sits down into its mate
connection and turn the ring until it is secure.
3. Locate the four body latches and push the pins outward into the body to secure the upper
robot to the lower. If you have a typical vehicle robot, two are in the middle left and right and
two at the back. To latch these you will need to reach in through the rear hatch or door. If
you have a character in the top, two of the latches are located in the compartment where the
Character sits. The pins are to the left and right of the Character.
Reverse order for removal.
!
CAUTION
If the upper robot is not properly latched before transport, it could come off while moving
the robot with the transport cart or in a vehicle, causing damage to the upper robot.
Removing the main electronics box from the robot:
1. Disconnect the battery connector before working with or removing the main electronics box.
There are 2 nuts to remove at the back bracket of the main box. There are some wires to
disconnect also. These include the speaker wires, headlights, drive motor wires (blue and
yellow), power wire to the 151-voice transmitter, and removing the receiver antenna wire
from the clips.
2. Now lift up on the back of the panel until it clears the studs, then slide the box back and out.
When removing, do it slowly, making sure that all wires are disconnected.
