Mounting the Engine

All model airplanes include an engine mount of some
type. It is extremely important that the engine be securely
mounted to the airplane’s engine mount. Follow the

Installing the Muffler

Using the included muffler mounting screws and lock
washers, attach your choice muffler with the included
hex wrench. Be sure the lock washers are placed over the
screws and that one gasket is placed between the muffler
and the engine. A second gasket is included as a spare.
Securely tighten both screws with moderate torque. The
exhaust outlet of the muffler can be rotated to allow the
exhaust outlet to be repositioned for various applications.

1. Loosen the lock nut on the back of the muffler and then

loosen the assembly screw.

2. Rotate the rear half of the muffler to the desired

position.

3. Tighten the assembly screw first and then tighten the

lock nut.

Important: After five runs, retighten the muffler
mounting screws and head bolt. Heat and vibration from
these first few runs can cause the gasket to compress.
Once the muffler screws are re-tightened, they will
remain tight and leak-free until the muffler is removed.
Also, if you have chosen the tube style muffler, tighten the
muffler thru-bolt at this time as well—loosen the lock
nut on the back of the muffler, tighten the thru-bolt via
the screwhead at the front of the muffler then retighten
the lock nut at the rear.
