Description
I just build the G2E whilst watching videos and following the manual. I think the manual has an error.
Page 36 on the manual, marked as **Very Important**, has the following information:
However, this can only be done once the Motor is installed (if I'm correct, and also follows the YouTube videos, including with Steve). As you will push the gear IN against the motor, but if the motor is not there, there is nothing to push against.
I believe that a change to make the gears easy to be installed was introduced during the development time, but the way to install the drive gear ended up been overlooked.
I'd suggest to install the step motor first, slide 37, and then install the drive gear.
Also, page 37 has an image with the drive gear (on the left) and other without (on the right), would be nice to have consistency here as well.

Research direction
Review manual pages 36 and 37, focusing on the drive gear and step motor installation order and the inconsistent drive-gear illustrations. Confirm the assembly sequence against the described videos, then update the instructions and image consistency so the drive gear can be installed correctly and the revised sequence is clear.
