Install the motor to the motor mount. The motor mount holes may need to be pre-drilled with
a 3mm drill bit.

Secure the motor mount with the final two m2 x10mm screws. The top two screws are first
fed from the front of the aircraft through the cowling mounts, then through the firewall and
finally through the motor mount. The

cowling mount

can be pre-drilled with a 2mm drill bit if

desired to ensure a firm fitment of the cowling to the firewall. An m2 x10mm can now also be
fitted to the lower center hole in the middle of the landing light to secure the lower section of
the cowling to the fuse.
