Assembly Instructions: Kit #9
Kit #9 is essentially Kit #8 where with a simple turn of the knob you can switch between four
different motors:
R – Regular reed switch motor
T – Reed switch motor with the transistor
H – Hall Effect motor
O – Motor with optical control
If you are adding the switch to already assembled Kit #8 please note the revised steps on
attaching the Hall Effect switch and the resistors.
1. Insert the T-pin into one of the caps.
