The Top Plate
We'll now close the torso by adding the top plate, which will also serve as a base for the Universal Mount !
Verify all the wiring
Before adding the top plate, let's quickly verify that all the wiring is correct and secure.
Check all Wires and connectors to make sure that :
- All connectors are securely plugged and going all the way in.
- All connectors are plugged in the correct connector (Front-Left with Front-Left, etc.)
- The wires are not pinched or under tension, and that they are not in contact with any screws or sharp edges.
Install the Top Plate
Everything seems good ? Great, let's now add the top plate to the torso !
For this step, you'll need:
| Ressource | Quantity |
|---|---|
Torso-Top part | 1 |
M2.5 x 6mm screws | 12 |
Place the Top Plate on the Torso
Place the Top-Cover part on top of the torso, and align the holes of the top cover with the holes of the torso.
Make sure that you are not pinching any wires between the top cover and the torso.
Verify the wires
Check that the 4 connectors for the Universal Mount are sticking out of the hole in the middle.
If not, remove the plate and adjust the wires until they are properly sticking out of the hole, then place the plate back on the torso.
Screw the Top Plate in place
Now that the top plate is properly aligned, screw it in place using 12 M2.5 x 6mm screws.
Make sure these screws are tightened properly, but don't overtighten them to avoid damaging the parts.
Verification
Check that all the screws of the top plate are properly tightened, and that the plate is well secured to the torso !
Here's what the final result should look like at this stage :
If everything looks good, we can now move on to the final step : Adding the Universal Mount !
