Inter-Play TECHOKIT stunt buggy Istruzioni per l’uso
Safety Advice for Supervising Adults: This project is safe to do, but you must follow the instructions
as specified. Because children’s abilities vary so much, even within age groups, supervising
adults should exercise discretion as to whether this project is suitable for children in their care.
The supervising adult should discuss the warnings and safety information with children before
commencing the activities, and observe the activities at all times. The activity in this kit should only be
completed with the materials specified and used as instructed. Read and follow these instructions, the
safety rules and first aid information. Keep them and our address for reference.
Keep Small Children and animals away from the components at all times. Carefully put all equipment
away when not in use and store out of the reach of small children and babies.
Batteries: Do not insert batteries into the battery holder/s / box/es until the model is complete, or
where instructed to do so. Slide the switch to the off position before inserting batteries. 2 x 1.5v
AA batteries are required. Do not use rechargeable batteries. Never try the activities with different
batteries to those recommended. Never mix old and new batteries. Do not try to recharge non-
rechargeable batteries. For use with DC only. Use only the batteries specified, and insert these with
the polarity as shown in the battery box (the spring in the battery compartment is for the negative
(-) terminal of the battery). Do not short-circuit the supply terminals. Remove and carefully dispose of
exhausted batteries.
Mains Electricity: Never connect any of the components in this kit to mains electricity. Children should
be instructed about the dangers of mains electricity.
The Battery Box: To open the battery box, first remove the security screw in the lid, then slide open
the lid. Connect only to the motor supplied. Never cross or hold bare wires when the batteries are
connected as heat can be generated that may cause injury, fire, or burning. Remove batteries from the
battery box when not in use.
Keep small children and animals away from the components at all times. Carefully put away all
equipment when the kit is not in use, and store out of the reach of small children. Never leave
electrical circuits unattended, even if they don’t seem to be working.
Building Your Stunt Buggy
When you have completed Construction
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Follow the instructions on the reverse of this sheet to construct your ‘Stunt Buggy’.
Before you begin construction, look carefully at the parts list and try to recognise the
name, and understand the purpose of each part in the kit.
WORKING / CONSTRUCTION AREA
Construction should ideally take place on a smooth; flat surface that is protected by
used newspapers or similar. Always ensure that the area of construction will not be
disturbed.
PROBLEMS?
If you become ‘stuck’ or are unsure of what to do next, ask an adult for assistance.
Always look very carefully at the constructional illustrations before joining parts. Most
parts within Technokits can however be easily taken apart, should a mistake be made.
TESTING THE MODEL
Provided that you follow the construction directions accurately, Technokits normally function correctly
first time, however, here are some helpful tips in case your model should fail to work correctly:
The motor does not run Check that the batteries are in good condition
when the buggy is switched Ensure that the battery box is switched on
on terminals. Ensure that the wires are firmly connected to the motor
Motor runs but buggy does Check that the rubber band is on both pulleys
not move. Check that the wheels rotate freely.
Most of the panels which make up your Stunt Buggy can be fitted the other way round, so
that the Buggy is white on the outside, allowing you to paint it, if you want to.
If you decide to change to a white Stunt Buggy, please note that this will mean that the
motor has to be located on the other side of the Buggy, and it will now drive in reverse!
To make the Buggy go forwards properly, you will need to fit the elastic band over the
pulleys in a figure '8'.
Cut out these wheel rims (following the blue lines) and stick them onto your foam wheels.

Carefully separate the components.
The slots should slide into place without
excessive force. If the fit between two
pieces seems too tight, check to make
certain that you have not damaged either
of them.
Slide the motor mount into the slot in the
floor section, taking care to ensure that
the ‘bump’ on the mount [*] is located as
shown.
Locate the tabs in the floor section in the
slots in the left and right body sides.
Push the front and rear bulkheads into
the slots on the body sides. Keep the
cut-out on the rear bulkhead on the right
side of the buggy.
Push the bonnet and boot sections into the
corresponding slots.
Ensure that the switch on the battery box is in
the off position and insert 2 x AA batteries (as
shown above).
Peel the backing paper from the self adhesive
Velcro pad and stick the pad to the ‘boot’ of
the buggy as shown. Stick the battery box to
the Velcro pad.
Push the drive pulley onto the motor shaft and
clip the motor into the motor mount, ensuring
that the notch in the rear of the motor locates
on the bump in the motor mount.
Plug the battery box onto the motor, making
sure that the terminals align properly.
Your buggy should 'pull wheelies' quite easily.
You can make the buggy pull wheelies more
or less easily by changing the position of the
battery box on it’s Velcro pad, which will adjust
the balance of the buggy. If you move the
battery box forward the buggy is more stable,
moving it rearwards makes it more unstable.
Construction Guide
Fit the front bumper to the bumper supports,
then fit the supports into the slots on the
bonnet. Fit the rear wheelie bars into the
slots on the rear of the body sides.
Select one of the 3 foam washers and
locate it on the driven pulley. Snap the
other half of the driven pulley in place.
Remember: The small diameter washer will
make your buggy go faster on flat, smooth
surfaces; the large diameter washer will make
your buggy accelerate better, climb better, and
perform better on rough surfaces. You can
change these washers after having built the
buggy by removing the rear axle and opening
up the driven pulley.
Slide one of the axles through the rear axle
holes, locating the pulley onto the axle, and
looping the rubber band over the pulley.
Push a stub axle through the hole in the centre
of each rear wheel. Place a washer on each
stub axle, and push the stub axle into the rear
axle.
Put the remaining axle into the holes for the
front axle and fit the front wheels as above.
