7. Slide the spinner backplate onto the engine crankshaft
(or brushless motor prop adapter). Depending on the shaft
size of your engine or motor, you may need to enlarge the
hole in the spinner back plate. This can be done with standard
drill bits. However, to ensure the spinner rotates concentrically,
we recommend using a reamer (GPMQ5006 standard prop
reamer, GPMQ5007 metric prop reamer). Balance and install
the prop (ream if necessary) and thoroughly tighten it with the
prop washer and nut (see page 31 about balancing propellers).

8. Install the spinner cone onto the backplate using the
included spinner screws. You may need to widen the prop
blade slots in the spinner cone with a hobby knife or rotary
tool if it does not fi t over the propeller.
