Step 8.1
Invert the fuselage and locate the pre-drilled main
landing gear mounting cavities on the bottom of the fuse-
lage. See 8B.
Step 8.2
Insert one of the pre-assembled main landing
gear into place. Use 4 sheet metal screws to attach the
landing gear to the fuselage. See 8C.
Step 8.3
Repeat step 8.2 to attach the second main land-
ing gear to the fuselage.
Step 15.1
Consult your engine manual and select a suit-
able propeller. See 15A
Step 15.2
Install the thrust washer, the spinner backing
plate, the propeller, the prop washer, and the prop nut sup-
plied with the spinner. Ensure that they are all firmly
attached. See 15B, 15C
Step 15.3
Trial fit the spinner cone and spinner cone
retaining screw. If necessary enlarge the cutouts in the
spinner cone to allow adequate clearance for the propeller.
See 15D
Step 15.4
Double check that the spinner cone retaining
screws are firmly attached.
Step 9.1
Review illustrations 9A, 9B and 9C then insert the front nose gear oleo
strut and support strut into the mounting holes in the bottom of the fuselage.
Step 9.2
Use the 4mm collar with set screw to secure the support strut in place.
See 9D.
Step 9.3
After securing the support strut into place, carefully pull the oleo strut
back out of its fuselage hole. See 9E. Do not detach the support strut
.
Step 9.4
Working inside the fuselage, pass the nose gear steering rod through
the EZ connector attached to the steering arm. See 9F. Do not tighten the steer-
ing arm set screw yet.
Step 9.5
Working from outside the fuselage carefully re-insert the oleo strut
back into its fuselage hole and then from inside the fuselage pass the oleo wire
through the steering arm. See 9G. Tighten the steering arm set screw.

washer and the prop nut
15D - Install the spinner cone using
the retaining bolt. Ensure the retain-
ing bolt is tight and secure
9B - Turn over the fuselage & locate
the mounting holes for the oleo strut
and the support strut.
9C -
Insert the front nose gear oleo
strut and the support strut.

STAGE 15
Identify the main landing gear components shown below:
- 2 pre-bent oleo main landing gear sets pre-assembled
with struts, wheels and mounting plates.
- 8 sheet metal screws (3x15 mm)
STAGE 9
Step 14.1
Install the muffler. Connect the fuel tank pressure line to the muffler
pressure nipple.
Step 14.2
Connect the fuel tank fuel line to the carburetor fuel inlet nipple.
Step 14.3
Double check that you have connected the metal fuel line from the
tank to the carburetor and that you have connected the metal pressure line
from the tank to the muffler.
Step 14.4
The fuel tank refueling line is used only when filling the tank. Keep
the line plugged after fueling is completed.
