INSTALLING THE THROTTLE PUSHROD SERVO

1. Place the engine into the engine mount and align it

properly with the front of the cowling.

If your engine is equipped with a remote needle

valve, we suggest installing it into the engine at

this time.

2. Slide the pushrod housing through the hole in the

firewall, through the hole in the forward bulkhead,

and into the servo compartment.

3. Apply epoxy glue to the pushrod housing where it

exits the firewall and where it passes through the

forward bulkhead. This will secure the housing in

place.

4. Using a modeling knife, cut off the nylon pushrod

housing 26mm in front of the servo tray.

3. Apply epoxy glue to the pushrod housing where it

exits the firewall and where it passes through the

forward bulkhead. This will secure the housing in

place.

INSTALLING THE ENGINE

Locate the long piece of wire used for the throttle

pushrod. One end of the wire has been pre-bend

in to a "Z" bend at the factory. This "Z" bend

should be inserted into the throttle arm of the

engine when the engine is fitted onto the engine

mount. Fit the engine to the engine mount using

the screws provided.
