Steps

Step1：Install landing gear

1. Open the package, take out the drone frames , the landing gear and crossbar components as well as the mountings and screws.
2. Remove the front and rear upper and lower covers to facilitate the turn over the frame and subsequent assembly.
3. Insert the mounts into both ends of the bent legs.
4. Turn the frame over, then install the bent legs on the frame, note the arrow to head. Use M4*20 screws to fasten, and then use M4*12 screws to fix the mounting seat .Do not fasten to facilitate the frame leveling.
5. After installing the landing gear on both sides, install the four tee fixings according to the positioning marks on the bent legs, and pay attentionto the interface horizontally inward.
6. Insert the front crossbar F (351mm) and the rear crossbar B (322mm) into the tee fittings, and fasten them with M4*30 half-thread screws.
7. Restore the receiver antenna, remove the tape, and fix the antenna with M4*10 cylindrical screws.
8. After the landing gear is installed, press the frame to level the drone, and then tighten the mounting seat of the landing gear.

Step2：Install motor set and drone arms

Tips

*Pay attention to each arm label and motor code, clockwise from the head is M1-M4 in turn, install CCW at M1 and M3 , and install CW at M2 and M4.

*The M1 and M2 arms with the motor cable, But the M3 and M4 arms will through the water pipe and the nozzle adapter cable first, and then threaded into the motor cables, and then lightly lock them to avoid falling off.

*It is recommended to install the propeller when test the aircraft. Note that the CCW and CW motor are respectively adapted to the corresponding paddles.

1. Take one of CW and one of CCW, and pass the nozzle adapter cable and water pipe through the motor head, and the other two motors no need.
2. Insert the 4 motor sets and cables into the carbon tube arm, and fix them with the screws on the motor base, do not tighten them

for adjusting later.

3. Install the spacer on the arm head swivel position .
4. Remove the wire buckle and the cable-passing seal.
5. Put the arm with the nozzle adapter cable, the water pipe intothe rear frame folder, and the arm without the water pipe into the front frame folder, then use the φ8*M6*78 lock nut to penetrate from the upper part. The lower M6*12 pair lock screws need to be glued(thegluehasbeensuppliedasstandard)(thecablefacesforwardandthewaterpipefacesbackward).
6. Install the locking buckle of the arm, insert the long pin into the hole of the arm holder, insert the short pin into the hole of the handle, and then insert the hexagonal stud intothe long pin at the end of the arm.
7. Adjust the arm handle to a suitable angle, use M4*12 screws to pass through the short pin of the handle, insert into the hexagonal stud and tighten.
8. Affix 'Watch Your Fingers' on the buckle of the arm and 'Mind The Blade' on the motor fixing place.
9. Follow the above steps to install the remaining arms and motors.

Step3：Connect Cables

1. Pass each cable of the motors through the cable-passing seal , and then restore the seal.
2. Assemble the wire buckle to the frame, adjust the length of the cables to facilitate the insertion.
3. Please check the pins of each interface before wiring, and connect them correctly according to the label to avoid wrong insertion.

4. Arrange the internal cables, make sure that the power transfer cable on the left of the front cover is connected with the motor cable on the right, and the power transfer cable on the right is connected with the left motor cable, and then plug the 4 power cables into the rear circuit board.

Note: *When installing the power cable, Up is the positive pole [red positive, black negative].

5. Apply grease to the sealing ring of the signal plug, and insert them into the corresponding positions according to the marks.

Note: Do not skew when plugging in. If it cannot be inserted, you need to check whether the internal pins are bent or wrong port.

Step 4：Install The Centrifugal Nozzles

1. Remove the power module of the centrifugal nozzle, insert the adapter cable into the inside of the bracket, and fasten it under the rear motor set with 4 M3*16 screws (the notch faces outward, which is convenient for water pipe installation).
2. Insert the nozzle adapter cable into the motor terminal,then restore the nozzle.
3. Finally insert the water pipe into the motor pneumatic connector.

Step5：Install Camera

1. Use M3*8 screws to install the adapter on the camera, and use M4*35 half-thread screws and locknuts to install it on the front body.
2. Pass the camera harness through the seal at the bottom and insert the plug into the front circuit board.

Ending :

1. After the above parts are installed, restore the front and rear drone upper and lower covers to their original positions.
2. Finally, use a level to adjust the motor, and then tighten the screws. It is recommended to install the propellers when outdoor test.

Switch Spreading Tank

1. Todisassemble the sprinkler system, first disconnect the water pipes which connected to the water pump and the multi-function cable, then take out the spray tank.
2. Put the spread tank with the spreader into the drone body and fix it, then connect the spreading cable with the multi-function adapter cable that fixed in drone body.
