Install the Cowl and Spinner
❏
1. Apply 5" [127mm] pieces of tape along the fuselage
starting at each of the four cowl mounting blocks. Mark the
center of each block onto the tape (1/4" [6mm] from the edge
of the fi rewall) and draw 4" [102mm] lines from your marks.
❏
2. If necessary, enlarge the hole in the spinner backplate
to match your crankshaft or prop adapter. Place the cowl onto
the fuselage and then the spinner backplate onto the motor.
Position the cowl 5/64" [2mm] behind the spinner backplate,
center the front of the cowl with the backplate, align the
colors on the cowl with the trim scheme on the fuselage and
tape the cowl in position or have a helper hold it in place.
Measure along the lines on the tape 4" [76mm] and mark
the cowl for the four mounting screws. Drill 1/16" [1.6mm]
holes through the cowl and into the cowl mounting blocks at
your marks. Remove the cowl from the fuselage and enlarge
the holes in the cowl to 3/32" [2.4mm]. Thread a #2 x 3/8"
[9.5mm] self-tapping screw into each cowl mounting hole in
the fuselage and back it out again. Apply a drop of thin CA
to each hole. Mount the cowl using four #2 x 3/8" [9.5mm]
self-tapping screws and four #2 fl at washers.
❏
3. If you have installed a glow engine, cut openings in
the cowl for the needle valve, glow plug access, muffl er
clearance, etc.
