Totem Lucas Robot Assembly Guide

v.1.5

STARTING TIPS

Inserting nuts (1) Inserting nuts (2) Faulty threads Tightening

standos

It is a good idea to
start every step in­serting nuts into
beams (if the step
requires).
Use the back of the
screwdriver to push
in the nuts.

After entering the

rst slot, nuts tend
to tilt. Use your

thumb to push it

back straight, and

then again use the
screwdriver to in-

sert the nut all the

way in.

For more tips, please visit the link below:

Some of the nuts
are missing threads.
This is a manufac­turing issue and we
are working on it. In

the mean time, we

add few extra nuts.

We apologize for

the inconvenience.

Use the Totem
Wrench Socket

(Blue) to insert Ny­lon Standos used
to assemble the
electronics boards.

Ruler

Use Beam/Bolt
ruler to determine
the length of beams
and bolts.

BEFORE YOU START BUILDING:

NOTE: 2x 8mm

Bolt colours codes:

We have put some colours on bolts to
make instructions more clear.

6mm bolts and 6x10mm nuts:

When starting on a building step, the 6mm bolts
and 6x10 nuts are coloured RED. It makes it
easier to see where the new bolts and nuts are
placed.

Notes for bolts other than 6mm:

When bolts that are not 6mm will be used, in
addition to colours, extra notes are given in
the instructions with lengths in mm.

12cm

I-beams lengths.

When a new Totem beam is needed in a step,
the length is indicated.

#1

#6 #8

#12

Don’t tighten
link too much.

Positions for nuts with #-symbol.

When it is helpful, the slot-number is indicated
in the Totem beam. Starting from #1 and count­ing slots.

The colour of parts.

The colours of plastic part may vary. Colours are
often changed on parts to make it easier to see
them in the instructions pictures.

Green Rotating Arrows = rotating action.

When a connection is a rotating hub, you must
not tighten the bolt and nut too much. Test it for a
smooth rotation, but not too wobbly either.

Totem Wrench Socket

Helpful little tool:

Included in the kit is a
small hex-socket used for
fastening Lock Nuts and
Nylon Towers. The pointy
end is for Lock Nuts.

The wheels
are pushed

Below we indicate
you should make a
gap between the 2
beams by adjusting
up or down.
It makes the robot

level to the oor.

It is not important to
have it accurate.

Just make it approxi­mately 2-3mm.

You can skip putting a

Just temporary put a

hold it together during

building the caster set.

Caster Wheel Kit:

Read in the Robotics Kit Booklet in page 30 and 31 about how to build
a Caster Wheel set.
The colour green and yellow in some instructions are for clarity only,

the actual colour may be dierent.

Skip Step4,
it is not
needed.

Use the included Allen key to easier tighten the bolt.
