Install Mounting Tabs

Two additional tabs are used as spacers for securing the servo to the mounting bracket. Press them onto each tab and fasten screws to secure them in place – Reference photo for best placement. Grab the servo brace and place it under the mounting hole. Insert and fasten an M3 screw to secure the brace to the servo mounting bracket.
