KIT/MANUAL ORGANIZATION
Th
e XX-4
is
composed
of
different bags marked A through H.
Each bagcontains all
of
the parts necessary to completea particu-
larsection
of
the
XX
-4 car. Some ofthese bags have subassembly
bags within the
m.
It is essential that you open only one bag
at
a
time and
foHow
the correct assembly sequence, otherwi
se
you
may face difficulties in finding the correct part. It
is
helpful to
re
ad
through the instructions for
an
entire bag priorto beginning
assembl
y.
Key numbers (in parenthesis) have been assigned to
each part
an
d remain the same throughout the manual. In some
illustrations, parts which havealready been installed are
not
shown
so that the currentsteps can be illustrated more clearly.
For your convenience,
an
actual size hardware identification
guide
is
included with each step.
To
check a part, hold it against
the silhouette until the correct part
is
identified. In some cases
extra hardware has been supplied for
par
~ that may be easy to
lose.
The
molded parts in the
:XX
-4 are manufactured to demand-
ing tolerances. When screws are tightened to the point of being
snug, the parts are held firmly in place. For this reason it
is
very
important that screws
not
be overtightened in any
of
the plastic
parts.
To
insure that parts are not lost during construction, it
is
rec-
ommended that you work over a towel.
or
mat
to prevent parts
from rolling away.
