"Now that we've got the turbine and bearing assembly in place, we're going to mate it to the top piece and the shroud that we worked out earlier. To do this we want to turn it, well, sort of turn it upside down to get it ready. And then this piece here, the screen. You want to make sure there are no cracks. It seems very unimportant and you can get some hairline fractures in here. If debris comes through here, then it enters into the steering part where the turbine is, or the gear box rather, and it little tiny things can jam up that gearbox, which stops it steering, stops the cleaner. If it's broken or occluded, clean it or replace it. Cheap part, do yourself a favor. Now, what we're going to do here is slip it into its channel. Hopefully you can see this, it's sandwiched on both ends and it just sort of slips in. The newer ones are kind of flatter in the sense that, well, it's just new, and you may have to bend it a little bit to seat it in there. Now, we're ready to do the mating. So, we set ourselves up, both of them going forward. We hold one in our hand like this, we hold the other and then we begin the mating process. Now, as I'm doing this, let me try to do it so you guys can see it at home. I?ve got to try to get this little piece here okay, into this channel and really, really sometimes is like threading a needle. Make sure that's locked into place again and here we go by one side and the other and she slid in right. All right? Really nice. Now she's ready, and now with this cleaner you want to put in just the two center ones, because remember after we put this part in, then we'll put the four. Don't make the mistake of either waiting or putting that on first. Put these two set screws in and with my drill on super low torque. Spins freely. That was actually part of this, not the cleaner. She is ready for the next step."
