- Install Wheel Axles: Insert the metal wheel axles into the center of each road wheel.
- Assemble Wheels to Arms: Attach the prepared road wheels (with axles) to the ends of the suspension arms. Use the provided fasteners (e.g., small screws or nuts) to secure them. Ensure the wheels can spin freely without excessive wobble.
- Endelig kontrol: Once all road wheels and suspension arms are installed, gently press down on the tank to verify that the suspension moves smoothly and that all wheels rotate without obstruction.

The independent movement of each suspension arm allows the tank to better navigate uneven terrain, absorbing shocks and maintaining track contact for optimal traction.
- Forbedret holdbarhed: The metal construction offers superior resistance to wear and impact compared to standard plastic components.
- Forbedret ydeevne: A functional suspension system helps maintain stability and control during movement, especially over rough surfaces.
- Realistisk bevægelse: The independent suspension arms contribute to a more authentic appearance and operational feel of the tank.
6. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance will prolong the life and performance of your metal road wheels and suspension arms.
- Rensning: After use, especially in dusty or dirty environments, clean the road wheels and suspension arms. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove debris. A damp cloth can be used for stubborn dirt, ensuring to dry thoroughly afterwards to prevent rust.
- Inspektion: Periodically inspect all components for signs of wear, damage, or loose fasteners. Check the rubber tires for cracks or excessive wear.
- Smøring: Apply a small amount of light machine oil or silicone grease to the pivot points of the suspension arms and the axles of the road wheels to ensure smooth operation. Avoid over-lubrication, which can attract dirt.
- Fastgørelseskontrol: Ensure all screws and nuts remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary, but do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads.
