Step 8
Slide the washer onto the engine shaft and then thread the
spinner adapter onto the engine shaft. Rotate the propeller
clockwise so it is resting against the lugs of the spinner
backplate. Finger-tighten the adapter.
Note
: You will not use the nut from your
engine for this application. Make sure to save
the nut somewhere in case you use the engine
from your F-22 Raptor in a future project.
Step 9
Use an adjustable wrench to tighten the propeller nut.
Make sure the propeller remains against the lugs on
the spinner backplate.
Important
: DO NOT use pliers, as the nut will
not be tight enough and could come loose.
Step 10
Locate the spinner cone and position it onto the spinner
backplate. The cone will key to the backplate with no gap
between the backplate and cone.
Step 11
Slide the adapter screw through the hole in the end of the
spinner and thread it into the adapter. Use the included
hex wrench to tighten the screw. Do not over-tighten the
screw which could possibly deform the spinner.
