Well we got inside here and got the upper part of the middle assembly taken care of and now it's time for the lower part. This part right here. This is where the gear box goes and the turbine. But we are going to start with the gear box first. The gear box is this guy right here. Now when it comes new out of the packaging you going to see a rubber band strapped around here keeping the few pieces in. If you?re anything like me, clumsy. It's going to fall all over the place. So let me show you right from scratch how it's going to go. You have got this piece here a little tiny nylon bushing alright a little hole in it and all you?re going to do is just place it. Bip, right on there, there you go and that's pretty much it. And then there is this piece here. This is the guy this is kind of the brain. Can you believe it? The brain of the cleaner. This keyed part is exactly how it should look. Not broken. People try to return it all the time I swear. You just place it there again squire part on squire part and boom done. You have just assembled a gear box. Congratulations! A little test. Like music. Alright that's exactly how it should sound and I put my finger right there I can feel it moving underneath it. And the installation back into the medium assembly. Pretty easy. Now you will notice this little thing right over here if you try to put it in wrong it's not going to fit. It's just wont prevented from it. So all you do is sort of spin it around. Drop it in boom that's all like butter. You have just put the gear box back in to your Aquabug.
