Universal .40-size Engine Mount w/Hardware
• Engine
• Assembled fuel tank
• Protective foam (not included)
• Throttle pushrod tube
• CA glue
• Phillips Screwdriver or Hex wrench
• Threadlock
• 30-minute exopy
The firewall is fuel-proofed at the factory. If by chance you need
to further fuel- proof the firewall or any other bare wood that is
exposed, mix approximately 1/2 ounce of 30-minute epoxy with
some rubbing alcohol (approximately 1/4 ounce) and brush it on
the unprotected area to seal it from fuel. Allow the epoxy to cure
completely.
Caution:
Do not allow the epoxy to get into any of the
predrilled holes.
Hint:
Mixing the epoxy with rubbing alcohol will allow you to
apply the epoxy easier and will speed up the drying time.
Step 1.
Blind nuts are preinstalled to the back of the firewall
to help insure the blind nuts do not come loose from the inside
of the firewall when installing the engine mount bolts. Put a
bead of CA around the outside flange of the blind nuts.
Be careful not to get CA in the threads of the blind nuts.
Step 2.
Locate the throttle pushrod. It is a 1.5-mm wire inside
the shortest of the clear pushrod tube guides. Remove the
throttle pushrod wire from inside the tube. Insert the throttle
pushrod tube through the hole in the right side of the firewall
furthest from the center of the firewall. Reach inside of the fuse-
lage through the wing saddle and guide the throttle wire tube
through the tube guide hole in the second former. Flush the end
of the guide with the face of the firewall. Place a mark and cut
the guide tube at the front edge of the servo tray installed in the
fuselage. Reinstall the throttle pushrod tube into the fuselage
and secure in place with CA at the second former. Be sure the
tube is flush with the face of the firewall.
Step 3.
Locate the Hangar 9 Universal Engine Mount and
associated Hardware.
