6) Secure the gear assembly in place by in-
stalling the eight 3mm x 12mm wood screws
through the mounting straps and remove the
masking tape. See photo # 20 below.

INSTALLING THE MAIN GEAR WHEELS
o
7) Slide one nylon spacer onto each axle.
Slide one 127mm diameter wire spoke wheel onto
each axle and up against the nylon spacers. Se-
cure the wheels in place by sliding one wheel col-
lar onto each axle and up against the wheels.
Tighten the 3mm x 6mm machine screw in the
wheel collars. The wheels should be able to ro-
tate without binding.
PARTS REQUIRED
ENGINE MOUNTING
MOUNTING ENGINE TO MOTOR MOUNT
o
{2} Nylon Motor Mount Beams
o
{4} 3mm x 20mm Machine Screws
o
{4} 3mm x 25mm Machine Screws
o
{12}3mm Flat Washers
o
{4} 3mm Lock Nuts
o
{4} 3mm Blind Nuts

1) Using a clamp or a vise, align the two motor
mount beams and clamp them together. The beam
halves are universal and the webbing should face
the outside edges. See photo # 21 below.

o
2) Mark the locations of the four engine
mounting holes on the beams using a pencil. For
the engine to align properly, it is important that
the front edge of the engine's drive washer be
3-3/4” forward from the rear edge of the mount-
ing beams.
o
3) When satisfied with the alignment of the
engine, remove the beams from the clamp and
drill 1/8” holes through the mounting beams at
the four engine mounting hole locations.
o
4) Mount the engine to the mounting beams
using the four 3mm x 25mm machine screws, eight
3mm flat washers and four 3mm lock nuts. Tighten
the screws and nuts completely.
If using an engine equipped with a remote
needle valve we recommend mounting the
needle valve to the engine prior to installing the
engine on the motor mount beams.
ALIGNING THE MOTOR MOUNT
o
5) The engine is mounted upright on the fire-
wall. Using a ruler and a pen, measure and draw
a vertical centerline and a horizontal centerline on
the firewall. See photo # 22 below.

o
6) Using a ruler and a pen, measure 1/8” to
the right of the vertical centerline (looking at the
firewall) and draw a second vertical line. Measure
1/2” up from the horizontal centerline and draw a
second horizontal line. Measure 7/8” down from
the horizontal centerline and draw a third horizon-
tal line. See photo # 23 below.
