Tailpipe Removal and Installation
The tailpipe comes installed. To remove it and reinstall it allows servicing of the model and a
tailpipe change if necessary.
NOTE: The aluminum cone on the Fwd end must be removed to allow the S.S. tailpipe to be
installed or removed.
.
NOTE: The arch cut into the Fuse Hatch aft flange is necessary to remove the tailpipe and
give better access to the Fwd fin retaining screw.
This 0.75” x 4” opening is necessary to remove the tailpipe.
To allow removal of the tailpipe, the front
flared aluminum cone must be removed by
releasing the small screws and nuts at the 3
and 9 o’clock positions.
#4-
40 x 1/4” SHCS with nuts can replace the
smaller factory installed phillips head screws.
