Installing the DLE-20 on Your Airplane

Note: The DLE-20 must be installed on at least a 6mm [1/4”] fi rewall.

The fi rewall must be securely glued to the airplane. Use triangle

stock and pin the fi rewall with hardwood dowels to reinforce the

fi rewall glue joints. Never install the DLE-20 onto a fi rewall thinner

than specifi ed because it may fail due to the power of the engine.

1. Select an engine mount. A two-piece engine mount that does not

interconnect or overlap at the fi rewall is preferred for the DLE-20, like
the Dubro Vibration Reducing Engine Mount 1.20-1.80 (DUBG1307).

2. Before securing the engine mount to the fi rewall, test fi t the engine
onto the mount and place the mount onto the fi rewall. Use this
positioning to create an engine mounting template. Use the template
to drill the mounting holes in the locations on the fi rewall. Note: A

Template for mounting the DUBG1307 is provided on the back of

this manual. Press the blind nuts into the rear of the fi rewall. If you
choose to use regular nuts or lock nuts be sure to place washers
