==Using R.O.B. and the Gyros==

The specifics of how to play the game will be covered in depth in the [[Gyromite/Walkthrough|walkthrough]].  This section will explain how to arrange the accessories around R.O.B., and how to use R.O.B. and the Gyros to play the game.  The instruction manual states that you should place the Gyro holder tray in positions 4 and 5 on the base of R.O.B.  The red and blue actuator is placed in positions 3 and 2, and the Gyro spinner is placed in position 1.  Lastly, the second player controller should be placed in the actuator tray (no other controller but the original will fit).  The truth is, these accessories can be arranged in any layout that you prefer.  Note that with Gyromite, R.O.B.'s arms can be placed in five horizontal positions and only three vertical positions: low, middle, and high.

It is important to be mindful of the height of R.O.B.'s arms as you move them across. At the lowest position, Gyros will collide with the accessories scattered around R.O.B. and hurt the motors inside of him.  At the middle position, the Gyros can collide with one another.  Also, ''never'' instruct R.O.B. to lower his arms to the lowest position over the Gyro Spinner when his arms are closed and a Gyro is in the spinner. Doing so will cause the spinning Gyro to grind against R.O.B.'s plastic arms, resulting in visible scuff marks. It's also a wise idea to avoid touching the sides of the Gyros when they are spinning; the friction can cause a nasty skin burn. Be sure to place R.O.B. on an even surface while playing in order to avoid damaging your R.O.B., as an uneven surface could result in greater chances of R.O.B.'s arms coming into contact with a spinning Gyro.
