Power Cube/Manufacturing Instructions

Overview




Intro to Power Cube Construction Script

Preparation

 * 1) Safety
 * 2) Workspace
 * 3) Tools

Subassembly Fabrication
The purpose of this section is to cut the raw steel into required lengths and shapes as required for final assembly. These step includes drilling and cutting steel up to 3/8” in thickness.


 * 1) Engine & Hydraulic Pump mounts
 * 2) Quick attach mounts
 * 3) Fuel tank
 * 4) Oil Cooler Mount
 * 5) Key Switches and Choke
 * 6) Electrical cables
 * 7) Battery Mount
 * 8) Mufflers
 * 9) Hydraulic reservoir

Assembly
Power Cube assembly requires all the parts listed in the Bill Of Materials to be available and prepared as detailed in the “Fabrication” section (above). Assembly requires a welder (electric or torch) capable of welding metal 3/8” thick.

A Power Cube Jig can be very useful during the welding stage:

 * 1) Frame
 * 2) Gas tank
 * 3) Hydraulic tank
 * 4) Engine and Hydraulic Motor Mount
 * 5) Battery mount
 * 6) Oil cooler and fan mounts
 * 7) Solenoid Mounting Bolts
 * 8) Keyswitch and Throttle mounts
 * 9) Quick Attach Plates
 * 10) Finish and Painting
 * 11) Install Hydraulic Components
 * 12) Install Engine and Hydraulic Pump
 * 13) Install Solenoid
 * 14) Install Mufflers
 * 15) Wiring
 * 16) Install Throttle Control

Final touches

 * 1) Install engine and secure with bolts, nuts and washers
 * 2) Connect wiring to key switch and solenoid
 * 3) Connect fuel line
 * 4) Connect coupling to engine shaft
 * 5) Install hydraulic pump on coupling and secure with nuts & washers
 * 6) Install fan and hydraulic oil cooler
