To couple the gearbox to the engine, the “Cranked Handle” of the engine must be removed.
The engine, coupling bracket and gearbox click into the “X1-Sled”.
Important: Part “X2-Coupling Bracket” must be assembled in the correct orientation (ARROW).
Operation
Use the cranked handle to rotate the gearbox / engine.
