Screw the internal combustion engine to the two support arms so that the distance
between the spinner base plate and the back of the motor support, or the bulkhead,
is about 150 mm. Mark the position for the drill hole for the throttle linkage on the
bulkhead and drill the guide hole accordingly. Insert the throttle linkage into the drill
hole of the carburettor level and run it to the servo location.
Assembling and installing the fuel tank
Slip a piece of silicon tubing onto the fuel tank clunk pick-up. The tube should be cut off
so that the fuel tank clunk pick-up can move freely when the tube is pushed onto the
throat of the fuel tank without getting stuck on the inside of the tank. Slip a piece of fuel
hose onto each of the free tubes for fill-up and overflow, so that one is on the top side
and one on the underside of the tank. This ensures that the tank can be filled or
emptied completely. Now push the tank stopper with the fuel tank clunk pick-up and
the already installed tubes into the throat of the tank as illustrated. Make sure that one
tube runs downward and one upward (to fill the tank). The tube pointing upward serves
as the overflow during fueling and is later closed via a nipple on the pressure tap of the
silencer. Now the three tubes should be marked with felt marker or tape. (carburettor
hose, tank hose, pressure tap hose). Push the tank stopper over the throat of the fuel
tank, and tighten the Philips-head screw to fasten the stopper in place. It is important to
tighten the screw so that the tank is completely sealed.
The assembled tank is pushed into the fuselage in such a way that the fuel lines run
through the drill hole in the bulkhead. To prevent slippage, the tank mount is screwed
into the fuselage using two Allen screws.
