After expanding the "Mates" folder in the FeatureManager we can see a

concentric mate and a coincident mate have been added. Selecting a mate

shows the part's mated faces in the graphics area.

24.4. - To fully define the 'Side Cover' we'll add a concentric mate between two

screw holes to prevent the 'Side Cover from rotating. Rotate the cover just enough

to see both holes at the same time. Hold down the "Ait" key as before, then click-

and-drag the face or edge of the hole in the 'Side Cover to the screw hole in the

'Housing'. When the concentric mate icon is displayed, release the mouse button

to add the mate. Now the 'Side Cover is fully defined and can no longer be moved .
