3.1 Connecting the Cabinets Start by removing the lid of the Foot Box. Remove the four Phillips head screws to free the lid, and it will pull straight up. Do not close the Foot Box until you have finished setting up and connected all of the cables. Attach the two Cabinet Connector Brackets to the Foot Box, as shown on the right. Use four of the bolts and washers in the bag labeled Connector Bracket Hardware and tighten using an Allen wrench.
Align the Seat Cabinet, Foot Box and Monitor Cabinet as shown here. NOTE: For the three components to align properly, this step must be performed on a level floor. Pull these four cables through and make sure they do not get pinched Push the Foot Box up against the Monitor Cabinet so the Cabinet Connector Brackets are resting on the base of the Monitor Cabinet. Pull the four cables coming from the bottom of the Monitor Cabinet into the Foot Box through the rectangular hole.
Pull these three cables through and make sure they do not get pinched Push the Seat Cabinet up to the Foot Box as shown, so that the Connector Brackets are resting on the bases of the Monitor Cabinet and Seat Cabinet. Pull the three cables coming from the bottom of the Seat Cabinet into the Foot Box through the rectangular hole. Use the eight remaining bolts and washers in the bag labeled Connector Bracket Hardware to connect the Foot Box to the other two cabinets through the Connector Brackets.
3.2 Connecting the Shifter Align the Shifter Mounting Bracket with the mounting holes on the Seat Cabinet so the wood piece is facing up, as shown here. Secure the bracket in place using the four screws and washers in the bag marked Shifter Mounting Hardware. To connect the Shifter to the Shifter Mounting Bracket, you must first loosen the mounting clamps on the Shifter.
3.3 Connecting the Flight Control Arm Assembly NOTE: Flight Control Arm installation is optional. Install only if you intend to purchase flight controls. If you are not planning on installing flight controls, please skip to page 15. The image on the right shows an exploded image of the left Flight Control Arm. The Flight Control Arm comes assembled, but you must disassemble it to connect it to Redline GT. Start by removing the screw and washer from the bottom of the assembly. Slide the tube up to free it.
Take the right Flight Control Arm and slide it through the mounted Flight Control Mounting Bracket. Reattach the screw and washer you removed from the bottom of the tube as shown. This will prevent the arm from coming loose.
Slide the Tube Cover over the Flight Control Mounting Bracket, aligning the mounting holes. Using the four screws and washers you removed; attach the Tube Cover to the bracket you mounted. If your screwdriver is too long, you may need to remove the Shifter to tighten one two of the screws. Repeat these steps to connect the Flight Control Arm to the left side.
3.4 Connecting Flight Controls The Flight Control Arms of Redline GT are designed to work with the Saitek X52 Flight System. Other flight control sticks will work, but you may have to measure and drill the correct mounting holes through the wooden mounting piece. Set the flight stick on the right arm and the throttle on the left arm.
3.5 Television Support Brackets The TV Support Brackets are designed to work with televisions that have VESA standard mounting holes from 200mm x 200mm to 400mm x 400mm. One end of the bracket connects to the back of your television, and the other connects to the Monitor Cabinet. Set your television, with the base attached, on top of the Monitor Cabinet. Try to keep it the television approximately centered horizontally.
You will now need to adjust the length of the TV Support Brackets so that the bottom mounting hole lines up with the pilot holes behind the television. Loosen, but do not remove, the two screws in the center of the bracket.
3.6 Connecting Foot Box Cables This section will show you how to connect the cables in your Redline GT. Connect the four sets of cables that you pulled into the Foot Box when you connected the cabinets. First, connect the cables with the 9-pin connectors, marked A. This cable powers the taillights and speakers in the Seat Cabinet. Next, connect cables B, C and D to the matching cables, which are coming up through the holes in the bottom of the Foot Box.
