Main frame: entirely made in fiberglass reinforced plastic. The main screw runs through two comoulded brass threads to avoid wearout of the thread itself. The dimension of the plastic body has been designed to cater for most electrical motors for slot cars, from the most common short can to the more sophisticated, double long transmission shaft 4WD motors.
Multifunction brass tool: it can be used to extract or press pinions. It can be rotated around its axis so that the proper tool (pin, for extraction, or cavity, for pressing) is used. The pinion housing for this element is designed to house pinions with a diameter ranging from 5.5mm to 7.5mm without damaging them.
Extraction pin: comes in two diameters : 1.9mm for motors whose shaft is 2mm, and 1.4mm for motors whose shaft is 1.5mm. Please use the correct one.
Grub screw: M3 grub screw, used to keep the extraction pin in place.
Extraction plate: in special steel, it works together with the pin to separate the pinion from the motor.

It can be inserted in either way depending on your motor’s endbell. ever attempt to press a pinion unless the end of the shaft (the one opposed to the pinion) rests safely in the middle of this part ! If your motor’s shaft does not go through the endbell, make sure it rests safely on the bushing.
Advancement screw: whose upper part comes with an ergonomic plastic knob, while the lower part is designed to couple perfectly with the tool’s bevel, to reduce friction and to allow the press to operate perpendicularly without play.
