Usage Notes: 

Go to your figures folder and select the SDKFZ9, it is very detailed and may take longer than usual to load. Depending on which variant you wish to use, select the Bilston Cab dial and alter its setting. 0=default (2 rows of seats), 1=single row seats. Select the type of platform you wish to use and load. The Bilston platform is a prop not figure. Any of the beds will be parented to the Chassis part of the main figure. Select the required accessories and load. Those props that belong to the main figure will be parented to it. Any that belong to the Maintainence Bed will be parented to that figure.

The main BODY dials for the Maintainence Bed character have not been hidden. You can remove the parenting to move it freely should you wish to depict craning the bed on or off the main figure.

The toolbox prop will parent to the right hand side of the Maintainence Bed figure. Load or duplicate as required.

Free floating props: The drawbar and spade will load into the Maintainence Bed and are not parented. The support leg will load to the left side in their deployed position (to indicate roughly how they were set up in use) and are not parented, the foot will load in position on the left side of the bed. Reposition either where you wish. The feet were usually stowed vertically across the bed behind the cab, the support legs were normally stowed in the box at the rear. The ammo Box/General gear will load on the ground.

The side panels of the hood were sometimes removed to aid engine cooling. Select them and make them invisible using the parameter dials.

The radiater grill vanes can be individually rotated or made invisible to simulate damage. Select the vanes you wish to alter and use the parameter dials accordingly. They are numbered from left  to right as viewed from the front.

The tracks will rotate in either direction for 1 track rotation only. If more is required, you will need to reset the dial to zero.

To change cameo schemes, select the figure in the material room and double click on the scheme required to change.
