COWLING.
Because of the diameter of the cowl, it
may be necessary to use a needle valve
extension for the high speed needle valve.
Make this out of sufficient length 1.5mm wire
and install it into the end of the needle valve.
Secure the wire in place by tightening the set
screw in the side of the needle valve.
1) Slide the fiberglass cowl over the en-
gine and line up the back edge of the cowl with
the marks you made on the fuselage.
2) While keeping the back edge of the
cowl flush with the marks, align the front of
the cowl with the crankshaft of the engine. The
front of the cowl should be positioned so the
crankshaft is in the middle of the cowl open-
ing. Hold the cowl firmly in place using pieces
of masking tape.
3) With the cowl held firmly in place, trans-
fer the marks from the centerline of the blocks,
that were drawn onto the fuselage previously,
onto the cowl. Using a ruler and a pen, mea-
sure forward from the back edge of the cowl
7/16”, at the four mounting block locations, and
place a mark.
4) While holding the cowl firmly in posi-
tion, drill four 1/16” pilot holes through both the
cowl and through the mounting fuselage.
5) Remove the cowl. Using a 5/64” drill
bit, enlarge the holes in only the four cowl
blocks.
6) Using a 1/8” drill bit. Enlarging the holes
through the cowl will prevent the fiberglass
from splitting when the mounting screws are
installed.
7) Slide the cowl back over the engine
and secure it in place using four 3mm x 12mm
wood screws.See picture below.
8) Install the muffler and muffler extension
onto the engine and make the cutout in the
cowl for muffler clearance. Connect the fuel
and pressure lines to the carburetor, muffler
and fuel filler valve.
1) Install the spinner backplate, propeller
and spinner cone. The spinner cone is held in
place using two 3mm x 12mm wood screws.
The propeller should not touch any part
of the spinner cone. If it does, use a sharp
modeling knife and carefully trim away the
spinner cone where the propeller comes in
contact with it.
