BUILD INSTRUCTIONS

AGORAMODELS JAGUAR E-TYPE
2
Spare screws are included with each part. Occasionally, you may be instructed to keep spare or
unused screws for a later stage. Keep these spares in a safe place and label them correctly.
Please make sure you don’t mix up the screws. They look quite similar, but the threads do vary
slightly. Using the wrong screws may damage the parts.
When securing parts together using multiple screws, fit each screw loosely to ensure all the
parts are correctly aligned before gently tightening them firmly, but not overtight, in the order
in which you placed them.
The screwdriver can be magnetized by stroking it with a magnet (fridge magnet, etc.) enabling
it to hold the screws and make assembly easier.
If a screw is tight going into a metal part, do not force it as you may shear the head off. Remove
it and put a tiny smear of Vaseline, soap or light oil on the thread. That will lubricate it and make
it easier to drive home.
During the course of this build, you will receive many pieces that you will assemble immediately
– following the instructions in the corresponding stage – and other pieces that you should store
safely to one side, for use in future assembly stages.
Left and Right! When building your Jaguar, the left or right hand side refers to each side as you
are sitting in the car.
WARNING: Some parts are assembled using magnets. These magnets can cause serious injury
if they are swallowed. Keep away from children. If you suspect a magnet has been swallowed,
seek medical help straight away.

Take the upper and lower half of the silencer and align them as shown,
noting that the holes and longer posts (circled) are closer to one end.
Secure the two halves of the silencer together using 4 x AG06 screws.
Place the upper half onto the lower half of the silencer, so that the
long posts fit through the holes (circled).
Take the floor panel assembly from Stage 48. Locate the two holes
on the floor panel assembly and align the two pegs on the silencer
assembly with them (arrows). Note the direction the exhaust pipes
(circled) are facing on the silencer assembly.

The process for assembling this wheel
is exactly the same as for your first and
second wheel. Don’t forget, the trick is to
adjust the tension on the spokes by
gently pressing and twisting the wheel
centre. Also check you have the spokes
hooked around the wide tooth on the
spoke retainer when instructed.

Take the wheel centre and note that there is a small notch that aligns
with a corresponding tab on the jig (arrows). The jig is used here to
assist with building the wheel and will be removed towards the end of
the wheel-build.
Take the wheel rim from Stage 50 and align the hole on the outer
edge with the pin on the jig (arrows).
Fit the wheel centre onto the jig.
Fit the wheel rim onto the jig, pressing firmly to lock the rim

Before you begin, note that the inner edge of the spoke retainer
ring has a series of ‘teeth’, alternating in size (see picture 6). Each
spoke has a right-angled tip, and a flat head on the opposite end.
Use your tweezers to thread the spokes and hook them into place.
Start by threading a spoke, leading with the tip, through a hole in
the innermost row of holes in the wheel centre. (Note: The spokes in
Stages 50 & 51 are the same.)
Then take another spoke and thread it through the next hole in the
innermost row of the wheel centre. Pull the spoke through the hole
and hook the tip around the next ‘wide’ tooth.
Pull the spoke through the hole and hook the tip around the nearest
‘wide’ tooth that gives the spoke a comfortable fit.
NOTE: The key to fitting the spokes correctly is to adjust the tension on
each spoke as you fit it by gently pushing and/or twisting the wheel
centre with your thumb.
Fit the third spoke in the same way, and continue all the way around
the wheel until you have filled all the holes on the inner row of the
wheel centre. Check that they are hooked around the wide teeth. If
they are not hooked around wide teeth, the spokes will not fit and the
wheel parts will not fit together at the end of the build.

This is how your wheel should look after fitting the first row of spokes.
Start in the same way, threading the tip of a spoke through a hole in
the uppermost row.
Check that all the spokes have been fitted to the innermost row of the
wheel centre. Next, you will fit spokes to the uppermost row.
The spoke tips will now face in the opposite direction to those fitted
on the bottom row. Make sure that they are hooked around a ‘wide’
tooth otherwise they cannot be secured in place in a later step.
