3. Test-fit the fuel tank with 3" x 5" [75 x 130mm] sheet of
1/4" [6mm] RC foam under the tank and tighten the Velcro
strap. Make sure the fuel tank does not interfere with the
throttle pushrod. We’ll get to the fuel lines later after the
cowl has been mounted.
MOUNT THE COWL
Because of the protruding head and muffler, mounting a
cowl over a glow engine is more difficult than mounting the
cowl over an electric motor that has no protrusions. For this
reason, we’ve written detailed cowl mounting instructions
for glow. A template is provided for cutting the cowl to fit
over the side-mounted O.S. .65AX. The template should
provide a close, clean cut around the engine but does require
removing the head to install the cowl. If you prefer not to
remove the engine head to install (and remove) the cowl,
you can simply cut the cowl behind the engine. This will
allow you to spread the cowl apart for positioning over the
engine. If you’re not using the .65AX, you’ll have to test-fit
and cut the cowl proceeding slowly and cutting in small
increments for a good fit.
A No. 569 and/or 570 Dremel
grout removal bit and a sanding
drum are indispensable tools
for accurately cutting a cowl.
Always wear eye and breathing
protection when cutting
fiberglass.

1. For the .65AX cowl cut template, mark the middle of
the aft edge of the right side of the cowl as shown (centering
it on the measurements on a cutting mat or similar makes
it easy to find the middle).
❏
2. Cut the cowl cut template from the back of the manual.
Tape the template to the cowl with the aft edge of the
template even with the aft edge of the cowl and centered
on the mark. Use a soft lead pencil to mark the cutouts onto
the cowl, then remove the template.

3. Wearing eye and breathing protection, use the Dremel
bit to make the first rough cut approximately 1/8" [3mm]
inside the main cutout – don’t worry about the smaller cutouts
for the carburetor and muffler screws yet.
