 Mount the oil reservoir. Fit it with both elbows provided and connect them to the oil
thermostat using black rubber hosing and hose clamps.
 Fit the oil reservoir with a blue plastic hose and run it around the back of the reservoir an
down the fuselage rim. This hose lets air flow into the reservoir, which allows the oil to
flow.
 Check the gap under the throttle control screw again. It should be 0.5mm. Adjust the
screw if it is not.
 Lockwire the oil reservoir release bolt, found under the reservoir. See photo below.
 Use a heat gun to fix any left over heat shrink tubing to their corresponding fittings.
