Questions to ask yourself before you start : What is the reference component ? The base 1-1. What are the complementary components ? Mast 1-2, stator 1-3, outer rings of bearings 1-4 (two instances):

Each component must be prepared in an assembly container Although it is not mandatory, it is advisable or even very useful to prepare meticulously its assembly if you want a lasting result and easy to maintain in case of problems. We will assume that each component is saved in its own file.
Three steps are covered here: How to create an assembly container ? How to insert a component into an assembly container ? How to create and organize the elements to be constrained ?
The following video shows you the procedure :

How to create the kinematic equivalence class It is necessary to create a new file and save it before doing anything. Three steps are covered here: How to create an assembly container ? How to insert a component into an assembly container ? How to fix the reference component ?
Reminder : it is necessary to fix the reference component so that the following components are positioned in relation to it and not the other way around.

Ho to complete kinematic equivalence class Two steps are covered here: How to insert a new component into an assembly container ? How to add the necessary constraints ? Reminder : it is necessary to fix the reference component so that the following components are positioned in relation to it and not the other way around.
