Dumb zx-5 newbie questions

[Ted Maul]

Hi

Bought zx-5 2nd hand before xmas (thx Martin) and now getting round to playing with it. Yea yea, I know, but a house move and 2 kids under 3.....

Anyway, motor screws from my tc are too short and I can't see a part number in the manual I downloaded, can anyone advise? Will any 3x10mm screw suffice?

Also all the allen headed screws seem to be the same size, same as my motor screws for my TC3, are they 2mm as if I get bolt headed motor screws I thinks its worth investing in a decent allen wrench.

Sorry for the dumb questions and ta in advance

The stock motor screws in the SP are 2.5mm, but ordinary M3 button head screws should have a 2mm hex.

Ok thanks, so does that mean the chassis screws are 2.5mm too?

the motor screws are an M3 thread, but the head is a 2.5mm hex drive. All the ZX5 screws are M3. The kit screws should be a 2mm hex drive head, so your new driver will be fine.

The button head and countersunk screws have a 2mm hex, the socket head motor screws a 2.5mm hex. The 2mm hex driver is fine!
