Step 5: Mounting the steam pipe, chimney and final assembly
On the boiler are three threaded holes. Put a gasket (26) into the middle one
and in the threaded bush on the baffle plate (15). Slide the cover (14) over
the packing screw (13-1) on the baffle plate end of the steam pipe (13) and
lightly ( first by hand) screw both ends of the steam pipe into the gasketed
holes. Now insert the piston rod (19) into the cylinder and over the crank
plate (12) pin. Check that the cylinder is at right angles to the flywheel axle,
are any adjustments necessary loosen the nuts holding the baffle plate,
adjust and retighten. Now with the use of the supplied spanner tighten the
steam pipe connections. Put a large gasket onto the whistle (22) and the
spring loaded safety valve (21) and fix it by hand (not using a tool) on the
boiler. Using a combination of gaskets you can position the whistle
correctly and tighten both by hand. Insert the burner tray (6) under the
boiler and fit the chimney (23) over the vent and fix it with 2 metal screws.
Now the assembling of the steam engine is finished. Stick on the sticker:
