Can't find instructions for my FBL head
My FBL Protos build isn't the new one with the low profile head, but on 4 sets of interactions I've found online, none of them show the head with the pieces I have included with my kit. I think I have an idea of how it should go together, but it different instructions show the use and non-use of spacers in certain places.
Here's a pic of the block the washout arms attach to, but I've seen other ones for FBL heads that have anti rotation brackets that the links sit between, and doesn't seem to use washout arms at all, then the new one that the washout arms attach directly to the metal head. I suspect that this gets pushed up against the head and a set screw keeps it in position, but without a manual specifically for these pieces, I'm not completely comfortable assembling this head, so I figured I'd asks the experts.

Use the old Mini manual for assembly and use the old style fbl upgrade instructions for the 500 for rod lengths.

Thanks, the instructions that I was using didn't show a spacer going in between the outer bearing and the arm. I assembled it without the spacer, but the mini instructions show the use of the spacer.
Should I take it apart and put it in? And it appears that the hub gets secured right against the aluminum head, correct?

The spacer should go between the two bearings inside the arm to prevent binding and the hub gets locked against the head.
