# Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this chapter we will focus how to set all parts together, we also call it the marriage a polyamouros one you can say.
|
|
|
Nacelle, Alternator, Rotor and the Wind Vane are be mounted together. Ét voila the _windkit_ is ready to produce energy. We'll start with the Nacelle and the Alternator Stator.
|

To do this, turn the assembly upside down and insert the screws from underneath.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9x M6x85-Screw Stainless Steel
|
|
|
|
|
|
Place a few pieces of wood underneath to hold the screws in place.

|
### Add Downwind Magnet Disk
|
|
|
|
|
|
Important: Place some wood pices between the stator and the rotor to prevent damage due to the strong magnetic forces!

### Measure the airgap
|
|
|
|
|
|
Measure the airgap -> if to big, disassemble take out washers, add shim washers (DIN 988) to adjust -> iterate
|
|
|
|
|

### All Rotor Blades assembled
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
### Measure and center the blades
|
|
|
|
|
|
Measure and write down the distance one tip of the blade to another. After the first measurement, adjust the blades by unscrewing the outer blade fasteners, move the blade and re-tighten the fasteners. Repeat this process until you have a satisfying result.
