Introduction
PASCO model ME-8971 is a set of two end stops for use
with PASCO tracks and carts. It is compatible with any alumi-
num PASCO track and any cart such as the Plunger Cart
(ME-9430), Collision Cart (ME-9454), PAScar (ME-6950, set of
two), and GOcar (ME-6951).
Installation
Attach each end stop to the T-slot on the side of the track as
illustrated. Slide the end stop to any position along the track and
secure it by tightening the thumbscrew.
One side of the end stop contains magnets to repel the magnetic
bumper of a cart. The stud on top of the end stop can be used for
attaching a spring or string. The hole is designed for use with a
Spring Cart Launcher (PASCO model ME-6843).

For Use with Older Tracks
If you have an older PASCO track (see illustration), install the
included washers to prevent the thumbscrews from “bottoming
out.”
