Detailed Description
The cockpit uses a rigid frame to keep the main racing controls positioned in front of the driver. A dedicated steering wheel mount supports the wheel at the front of the seating position, while the pedal mount provides a separate platform for the pedal set.
The steering wheel mount includes tilt adjustment so its angle can be matched to the user's seating position. The pedal mount also provides tilt adjustment, helping align the pedals with the driver's leg and foot position.
The gear shifter bracket may be fitted to the left or right side of the cockpit. It can be arranged in a standard or tilted position, allowing the shifter location to be adapted to the preferred driving style and available space.
The cockpit includes a seat and monitor mount. The screen position can be fine-tuned by turning the upper adjustment screws so the display is aligned with the driver's viewing angle. The mounting points are intended for compatible gaming equipment; the exact fit depends on the equipment's mounting pattern and dimensions.
Safety
- Read and understand all operating and assembly instructions before using the cockpit.
- Do not exceed the 100 kg maximum load capacity. Consider the combined load of the user and any equipment supported by the frame.
- Install the cockpit on a stable, level surface that can safely support the complete assembly.
- Follow the assembly sequence carefully. Incorrect installation can cause instability, equipment damage, or injury.
- Use suitable tools and appropriate protective equipment during assembly. The manual identifies professional installation as the recommended approach.
- Use only the supplied mounting screws and avoid overtightening them, as excessive force can damage components.
- Check every part for damage or missing hardware before beginning installation.
- Keep small parts away from children because they can present a choking hazard.
- Use the product indoors only. Outdoor exposure can contribute to product failure and unsafe conditions.
- Inspect the frame, adjustment points, fasteners, and mounted equipment for stability at least every three months.
Setup and Operation
Before Assembly
Unpack the components and compare them with the parts list and assembly illustrations. Do not begin installation if a component is damaged or if required hardware is missing. Place the parts on a clean surface to prevent scratches and make the assembly sequence easier to follow.
Assembling the Frame
- Build the main frame according to the supplied assembly illustrations.
- Install the seat section and confirm that the frame rests evenly on the floor.
- Attach the steering wheel mount and pedal mount using the supplied screws.
- Adjust the steering wheel mount and pedal mount to an initial angle that allows comfortable access to the controls.
- Fully tighten the screws identified in the instructions as screws P–E. Recheck the joints after the frame has been assembled.
Installing the Controls
Position the steering wheel on its mounting plate and secure it using the wheel manufacturer's compatible mounting hardware. Place the pedal set on the pedal mount and verify that it cannot slide during use. If the equipment uses a different mounting pattern, do not force the screws into misaligned holes.
Install the gear shifter bracket on the left or right side according to the user's preference. The bracket may be used in its standard or tilted arrangement. Confirm that the shifter does not interfere with the seat, steering wheel, or the user's legs.
Adjusting the Driving Position
- Adjust the seat position so the pedals can be operated without fully locking the knees.
- Tilt the pedal mount so the pedal faces are comfortable to reach.
- Set the steering wheel mount angle to keep the wheel within easy reach without forcing the shoulders forward.
- Choose the shifter side and angle before tightening its fasteners completely.
- Align the monitor by turning the upper adjustment screws. Sit in the normal driving position while checking the screen angle.
Final Inspection
Before connecting or operating gaming equipment, make sure all frame screws are tight, the seat is secure, and each mount is stable. Gently test the steering wheel, pedals, shifter bracket, and monitor support by hand. Stop and correct any movement, looseness, or misalignment before use.
Troubleshooting
The Cockpit Wobbles
Place the cockpit on a level indoor surface and check that all frame sections are seated correctly. Inspect the fasteners and fully tighten the required screws without overtightening. Remove equipment that causes the maximum load to be exceeded.
The Steering Wheel or Pedals Are Uncomfortable
Readjust the tilt of the steering wheel mount and pedal mount. Move the seat to create a comfortable distance, then check that the user's arms and legs can operate the controls without excessive stretching.
The Gear Shifter Is in the Wrong Position
Remove and reinstall the shifter bracket on the opposite side if required. The bracket can also be changed between its standard and tilted configurations to improve access.
The Monitor Is Not Properly Aligned
Check that the monitor is securely attached and that its weight is appropriate for the mount. Adjust the upper screws gradually while viewing the screen from the normal driving position. Do not use an unstable or damaged monitor attachment.
Parts Are Missing or Damaged
Stop assembly and compare the delivered components with the parts list. Do not substitute unapproved screws or use damaged structural parts, because the completed cockpit may become unsafe.
