A.1. Downstop Inserts
1. Install the qty4 P06 into the chassis individually. Light filing of the edges of the designated holes
in the chassis may be required for easier installation; where the small semi-circle intersects the
larger.
Place the P06 with the larger end on a flat surface. Then take the chassis in hand so that the P06
will be installed from the top of the chassis through to the bottom. The large end of P06 will
shoulder on the upper side of the chassis. Align the designated hole of the chassis with the P06,
and push the chassis onto the P06 piece.
The P06 will snap into place. Repeat for the remaining P06. CA glue can be used to further
secure the piece into the chassis if desired.
2. Install a P3x4 set screw into each P06.
3. With a hobby-knife, trim off any of the P06 surpassing the bottom side of the cassis.

start off to mount your shock mounts. So in other words, in the rear, have the narrower set of holes
facing the back and in the front, have the narrower set of holes facing the front.
