Trim the cockpit 4.1 according to the markings.
A Lexan scissor with short, stable cutting
edges (e.g. order no. 455533) is best suited for
cutting out.
Fig. cockpit fitted in hull
Insert the cockpit into the hull opening and fit. If
necessary, regrind the edges.
Screw the cockpit to the hull using 6
countersunk screws 4.23. Slightly countersink
the 6 holes with a countersink or a larger drill
so that the screws are flat.
