Materials and tools
Making support cheeks
Make support cheeks -B- with basic material Multiplex plate 600 x 120 mm, 25 mm thick.
A4 = Straight pin 6 M6 x 40 / B = Support cheek
1. Work procedure:
1.1. Transfer 160 mm radius to the multiplex plates.
1.2. Saw multiplex plates along the traced radius. The foot of the sabre saw must be tilted by 15 degrees for this purpose.
1.3. Drill four 6 mm holes in the support radii of each support cheek to provide clearance for the Tucker bolts on the hardtop body. Obtain the dimensions from the hardtop body.
1.4. Drill three holes, 20 mm deep, 6 mm, per support to cheek to secure the support cheeks -B- to the base plate -D- with the straight pins -A4- 6 m6 x 40 from the set of fittings - attach support cheeks -B-.
Making swivel arm
Make swivel arm -C- with basic material Multiplex plate 550 x 200 mm, 25 mm thick.
1. Work procedure:
1.1. Fit bracket -A1- with 2 countersunk screws -A6- following the dimensions specified on the swivel arm -C-.
1.2. Fit hinge -A2- with 4 countersunk screws -A5- following the dimensions specified on the swivel arm -C-.
Fitting mounting points for the hardtop locking lever on the ground plate
Fit mounting points -A3- for the hardtop locking lever on the ground plate -D-.
Basic material: Wood-core plywood 1500 x 900 mm, 19 mm thick
1. Work procedure:
1.1. During assembly, all parts are positioned from the centre.
1.2. Measure and mark the ground plate -D-.
1.3. Fasten completed swivel arm -C- on the hinge -A2- with four 4.5 x 20 countersunk screws in accordance with the dimensions specified on the ground plate -D-.
1.4. Transfer hole pattern of the support cheeks -B- onto the base plate -D- in accordance with the specified dimensions, and drill holes using a 6-mm drill bit.
1.5. Fit support cheeks -B- over the prefitted straight pins -A4- onto the ground plate -D-.
Fitting mounting points for the hardtop locking lever on the ground plate
Fit mounting points -A3- for the hardtop locking lever on the ground plate -D-.
1. Work procedure:
1.1. Fit mounting points -A3- both with hexagon-head bolts -A7- according to the dimensions specified on the ground plate -D-.
