Some of these steps have sub-assembly steps within them.It is helpful to read through the instructions for an entire step prior toworking on your vehicle. Next to each of the step numbers is a check box.At the completion of each step, place a check in this box so that if youmust stop and come back to the assembly, you will be able to pick upwhere you left off.For your convenience, an actual-size Hardware Identification Guide isincluded as a fold-out page at the back of this manual. Hardware thatis not easily differentiable in each step is called out with an icon whichcontains a small picture of the part genre (referenced on the HardwareIdentification Guide), the quantity of that part required for what is shownin the step, and the size or name of that part. To check a part, hold itagainst the silhouette until the correct part is identified. Associated witheach of these parts, in the Hardware Identification Guide, is an LOSA-Number which is used whenordering replacement partsfor your 8IGHT 2.0. In somecases, extra hardware has beensupplied for parts that may beeasy to lose.Components used in each stepare identified by their relative LOSA-Number and the component’sname. With the exception of a few parts, these are not referenced in theHardware Identification Guide.The molded parts in Team Losi Racing vehicles are manufactured todemanding tolerances. When screws are tightened to the point ofbeing snug, the parts are held firmly in place. For this reason, it is veryimportant that screws not be overtightened in any of the plastic parts.In some steps there will be a filled black circle with a white number.These indicate the specific order by which assembly must occur. In caseswhere steps are repeated (front/rear or left/right) these numbers may beomitted. Please note that these numbers will not call out every sub-steprequired for the step’s assembly procedures, they will only highlight thecritical order required for assembly.In each step, there are specific “Detail Icons” (shaped like a stop sign) thatcall out critical precautions or assembly tips for the process. There is areference key that describes the meaning of each of the icons located onthe fold-out Hardware Identification Guide at the back of this manual.To ensure that parts are not lost during construction, it is recommendedthat you work over a towel or mat to prevent parts from rolling away.IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES:1.
