Notice Kemper Champion V4.0 [EN]

Préface

In the next pages, i will detail step by step how to assembly the Kemper kit. I will try to be clear and specific, if you have some problems, i invite you to ask your question in the comments. I will try to answer quickly and specificly.

-I have tried to take the greatest care in the design of miniatures while maintaining a good compromise between ease, strength and level of detail.

-The models are made of ABS 3D prints, this material is acetone sencitive. That mean it's very easy to paste it with super glue. The pieces can have some littles defauts on skin dur to FDM printing. It's not a problem because the kit will be painted but if you are very exigent, you can sand down with a little file or sandpaper. Be carreful the ABS is senitive to the high temperature 80°C and more (deformations, burns,..)

-I am only a modest individual who offers kits for sale, so I have no means of production very advanced or optimized. The printers that i own are middle range printers for privates; the precision of theese machines are not perfect. Maybe you will have to adjust some holes or some défauts on the pieces. I never send unusable pieces.

Content of the kit

> Détailled list of the pieces <

Necessary material

Cyano glue (super glue)
Flat file
Cruciform screwdriver
Painting of your choice
Small square
Cutting plier

P-01 / P-02

Paste the bottom plate (P-01) perpendicularly to the header rear plate (P-02). The piece must be in support with the 2 cleats, in a 90° angle whit the rear plate.

P-11

On the underside of the Kemper, paste the intermediate spike support (P-11) like on the picture.

P-03

Glue the drums support block (P-03) on the bottom plate, against the rear plate.

P-04 / P-05

Put the 2 canal sides (P-04 / P-05) on each side of the drums support block.

P-06

Paste the header fixing slat (P-06) on the header rear palte's top.

P-13 / P-14 / P-15 / P-16 / P-17

Build the feeding drums by filling successively a saw (P-13 / P-14), a big feeding stars (P-15), 2 middle feeding stars (P-16) and 2 little feeding stars (P-17). Be carreful to align the big feeding star with the 2 middle stars.

P-07 / P-08 / P-09 / P-10

Put the flux guide sheet left and right (P-09 / P-10) respectively on the left and right feeding drums housing (P-07 / P-08).

With the feeding drums built at the 6th step locate the 2 feeding drums housing by aligning the holes and paste its on the header rear plate (the utilisation of an axis to align pieces is highly recommanded). The feeding drums can be removed for now.

P-27

On each side of the header, put the 2 cylinder barrels (P-27) with a part of the 1mm axis.

10.

P-26

Paste the central tip (P-26) on its place.

11.

P-18

Put the feeding drums on theese place and insert the feeding drum's axis (P-18) from above.

12.

P-19 / P-20 / P-21 / P-22 / P-23

Assembly the little spinning top like this: little spinning top's body left/right (P-19 / P-20), lower little spinning top's star (P-21), middle little spinning top's star (P-22) and upper little spinning top's star (P-23).

13.

Put the 2 littles spinning tops previously assembled. Be careful to put the right on the right side and the left on the left side.

14.

P-24 / P-25

Put the central plate (P-18) and insert the littles spinning tops axis (P-25). Don't paste the central plate for now, it will be removed to paint the model.

15.

P-30 / P-31 / P-32 / P-33

Paste the left lateral unit teeth (P-32) on the left lateral unit frame (P-30) and the right lateral unit teeth (P-33) on the right lateral unit frame (P-31).

16.

P-28 / P-29

Fix the laterals unit hinge plates left (P-28) and right (P-29) respectively on the lateral units left and right.

17.

P-40 / P-41 / P-42 / P-43 / P-45

Fix the left auger's block (P-42) and the right (P-43) on the header flanks (P-40 / P-41). Paste too the header flank's plates (P-45) on the flank and the block like on the picture.

18.

P-44

Insert an external spike (P-44) in each flank and paste it

19.

Paste the assemblied flanks at the 18 th step with the laterals units. Be careful with the mounting direction, see the picture.

20.

P-34 / P-35 / P-37 / P-38 / P-39

Build the big spinning top like this: left/right big spinning top's body (P-34 / P-35), little spike rings (P-37), middle spike rings (P-38) and big spinning top's hat (P-39). Align the hat's teeth with the middle spike rings.

21.

A-02

Put the big spinning tops left and right respectively on the left lateral unit and right. Attach them with the 2 M3 screws supplied with the kit (A-02). Do not tighten screw to much to allow them to freely turn.

22.

P-46 / P-47

Insert the left big spinning top's housing (P-46) and the right (P-47) like on the picture. Don't paste them, it will be more easy to paint them séparately.

23.

A-01

Fold a little part (+/- 15mm) (A-01) with a 90° angle and insert it in each lateral unit hinge plate, it will be later the 2 cylinder rods to fold the Kemper.

24.

A-01

Attach the 2 lateral units by putting the cylinder rod in his barrel and but putting a little part of the external units folding axis (A-01) (about 15 mm lenght) in the planned holes to joint laterals units with the central unit. This axis become a hinge.

25.

P-48 / P-49 / A-03

Identify the left auger (P-48) and the right (P-49) and put them between the auger's block and the external spike on each side of the header. Solidarise them with the 2 laterals auger axis (A-03), no need glue for this step.

26.

P-53

On each side, insert a maize guiding bar's elbow support (P-53) in the planned holes on the big spinning top's housing. Don't paste them, the guiding bars will be dismanteled for painting.

27.

P-54

Insert the maize guiding bar's straight support (P-54) on each side in the planned housing. Don't paste them for painting.

28.

P-51 / P-52

Fix the left maize guiding bar (P-51) and the right maize guiding bar (P-52) between the maize guiding bar's supports like on the picture.

29.

P-50

Put the maize flapping bar (P-50) in his housing to check if all is ok without glue, this one will be removed for painting.

30.

Dismantle all the subsets and paint them in the right colour.

31.

Rebuild the subsets when the painting si dried. This time the central plate can be paste on the drums support block. The maize flapping bar and the maize guiding bars can be definitely put in place.

32.

P-36

Insert the 2 big spinning top's centers (P-36) painted before.

33.

A-04 / A-05

Put the stickers (A-05 / A-06) on the rear side of the laterals units and on the header flanks. The sticker's adesive can be sometimes not paste a lot, don't hésitate to put a little glue to avoid any peeling off.

34.

A-04 / A-05
