RE: panther problem
Hi Kurt,
I dont have my instructions in front of me. If you are refering to the track tensioner - you slip the long screws through the bottom, at the back of the hull and then add your first locknut (dont tighten it against the bottm of the hull floor - it needs to spin freely). This keeps the screw from extruding out the bottom of the hull. Follow the instructions regarding the rest.
Good luck!
Steve
