2. Install a 6" [152mm] extension on the choke servo

the connections with heat shrink tubing, tape or some other
method to secure the connectors.

openings for the switch harness and charge receptacle. Cut
away the covering from the openings you choose to use and

Complete the Engine Installation,
Mount the Cowl, Prop & Spinner

1. Slide the cowl over the engine and onto the fuselage. The
cowl will not center properly because you will need to remove
some of the cowl to make clearance for the engine. Place the
cowl over the engine as far as you can. You should be able to
get it almost completely over the engine. With a felt tip marker,
mark inside of the cowl the area where the engine makes
contact with the cowl. After marking the cowl remove it from
the fuselage. Use a high speed motor tool and appropriate
cutting tool to remove the area of the cowl where it contacts
the engine. Remove small amounts at a time, test fi tting the
cowl as you go. You do not want to remove more of the cowl
than is needed to create engine clearance. Continue with this
until the cowl rests tightly against the front of the fuselage.
❏
2. Locate two 6-32 x ¾" [19mm] socket head cap screws,
#6 lock washers and #6 fl at washers. Secure the cowl to the
fuselage from behind the cowl with the bolts and washers.
❏
3. Securing the bottom of the cowl to the fuselage is done
from the front of the cowl but will remain inaccessible until you
complete cutting the cowl for the engine and muffl er clearance.
With the cowl secured with the top two cowl mounting bolts,
mark the rest of the cowl to indicate the fi nal area that needs
to be cut for engine clearance. Cut away those areas from
the cowl.
