A Inventory
You'll find a few bags within your v8 boot kit. Unpack all of them to find the following items:
- (1) Main Boot part in Onefinity Green
- (1) Face part in Onefinity Green
- (1) Acrylic part with protective film
- (3) M3x10mm Button screws
- (4) 6/32 x 3/8" long Socket screws
- (2) Wing parts with embedded magnets in black
Not included but tools you'll need are as follows:
- 2mm hex wrench
- 2.5mm hex wrench
- Box Cutter or flush cutter
A Attach Wings
The wings are attached to either side of the boot. They're attached using the (4) M3x10mm Socket screws. They're screwed into the brass threaded inserts along either side of the main boot body.
Use the 2.5mm hex wrench to attach the screws.
B Attaching Brush
The brush is long enough to cover both the boot and face parts. So start the brush in the boot at the end of the brush on one end of the track. Press the brush down into the track, slowly working your way around the track.
Pay particular attention to keeping the bristles perpendicular to the bottom of the boot. If you experience any issues with keeping them perpendicular, consider a small patch of painters tape in the trouble areas. That will thicken the brush seat making a tighter fit within the track.
Once the entire brush has been seated in the track, use flush or box cutter to trim the brush material to size. You do not want any brush material protruding out the front of the boot as it'll interfere with properly attaching the face.
C Attach Boot Acrylic
Grab the circular acrylic part and remove protective film.
Slide into place underneath the boot.
Using (3) M3x10mm button head screws, secure the acrylic into place.
There is extra plastic material deep in the holes... this is on purpose to provide something to help the screws from backing out.
A Slide in Brush
The face part has an angled brush track. This requires you to slide the brush material in from one side through to the other.
Using a flush cutter, trim both ends at the angle so the brush material's seat is flush with the surface of the face.
Note that not flush cutting this material will cause the face to not sit properly when attached to the boot.
