10. Apply a thin layer of 6-minute epoxy along the inside

edge of the cowl. Slide the cowl over the cowl ring and
position the cowl so that one of the dummy engine cylinders
is straight up and the prop adapter is centered.

plastic bag. To increase the strength of the joint between the
cowl and cowl ring, apply a small fillet of epoxy on the inside
of the cowl ring.

12. Once the epoxy has cured, reinstall the cowl using

the 4-40 x 1/2" [13mm] socket head cap screws, #4 lock
washers and #4 flat washers.

13. Install the propeller using the prop washer and nut

that came with the motor. Tighten the prop nut securely.
