BOT120 PICAXE-20X2 MICROBOT
Place a motor into each of the motor housings ensuring that the motor
terminals are facing the opposite way to the axle
The motor housings are fitted so the axles are positioned closest to the
front of the motherboard.
Push the motor assemblies onto the motherboard one at a time ensuring
that the motor terminals are angled and not flattened before doing so.
Follow the illustrations carefully noting the orientation of the axles and
making sure that they are towards the front. These are a tight fit so it will
be necessary to push quite hard.
Align axles correctly!
Now place a single drop of grease onto the side of each worm gear. This
is very important as it lubricates the gears for smoother operation. The
grease will automatically disperse around the gears when the motor is
switched on. Also place a drop of grease at both ends of the axle (where
it makes contact with the gearbox housing).
This is how your Microbot should look now:
