U-Can-Do 3D .60 ARF Manual

1. Draw a vertical line on the firewall using the embossed
lines as a guide. Note: This line is offset to the left side of the
fuse so that the spinner will be on the center-line of the fuse.
2. Trim the spreader bars from both halves of the engine
mount. Mount the engine mount to the firewall with four
8-32 x 1" [25mm] SHCS, #8 flat washers and #8 lock washers,
but do not fully tighten the bolts.
3. Adjust the width of the mount to fit the engine. Center
the molded-in tick marks on the engine mount equally to
the left and right of the vertical line on the firewall. Tighten
the mounting bolts.
4. Place the back plate of the spinner on the engine.
Note: Depending on your engine choice, it may be
necessary to enlarge the hole in the back plate.
5. Use small clamps or another method to temporarily
secure the engine to the mount with the back plate of the
spinner 5-7/8" [150mm] from the firewall. Use the Great
Planes Dead Center
Engine Mount Hole Locator
(GPMR8130) or your preferred method to mark the engine
mount holes onto the engine mount.
6. Remove the engine from the mount. Drill #29 holes
through the mount at the marks you made. Tap 8-32 threads
into the mount. Mount the engine to the mount with four
8-32 x 3/4" [19mm] SHCS, #8 flat washers and #8 lock washers.
1. Use epoxy to glue the four 3/8" x 3/4" x 3/4"
[9.5 x 19 x 19mm] maple cowl mounting blocks to the firewall
in approximately the locations shown.
