The instruction manual for the Ion talks about using slow CA when installing threaded metal into plastic. It also states that the action will be called for in the assembly text. I'm in the process of installing the threaded balls into the bell mixers. The text says install "using the previously mentioned precaution". I assume this means to use CA??

Thanks for your help!

Yup , that's what it means, use CA to install the balls into the bellmixers. Thick works best and just a dab is all it takes.

Thanks Chris! I was hoping you were lurking here. Feels good to finally be building this thing.

yes - also *DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN* - tighten the threaded balls until the flange meets the plastic surface - no more.
