After painting the chassis fit electrical pickups
and motor/gears and set up for sweet running.
I have included parts for making a wire wiper
pickup system and pilot holes that can be
opened up for Slater’s plunger pickups are
included on the side frames.
With these instructions I have assumed that
you are experienced in setting up a chassis. If
this is not the case extra instructions are
included on the instruction sheet that comes
with my motor and gearset. These can be
downloaded free of charge from my website
www.jimmcgeown.com or send a SAE and I will
be pleased to provide them.
I have also produced comprehensive hints and
tips help sheets for using Slater’s wheels,
plunger pickups, etc. These can also be
downloaded free of charge from my website
www.jimmcgeown.com or send a SAE and I will
be pleased to provide a free copy of my hints and
tips booklet for new customers.
