The drawing contains a motor with a gearbox. Some construction lines
are inserted to help you work through the tutorial exercise. The gearbox
is not completed yet. We want to add standard components and show
how easy it is to edit standard parts with an automatic update of the
background objects.
Before you proceed, you must enable mechanical structure. If you proceed
without mechanical structure enabled, some command line prompts will
differ from the prompts in the exercise.
