This document provides instructions for creating an exploded view in OnShape. It outlines the following steps: 1. Create a new drawing from an assembly file and set the sheet size. 2. Demonstrate how to add an exploded view by selecting parts, moving them to defined distances or angles, and accepting their placements. 3. For the assembly, an exploded front view was created by selecting parts, renaming explode steps, dragging parts to distances, and accepting their placements until the assembly was fully exploded.
