❑ Before permanently installing the cowling you should make the rest of the cut-outs for your engine. These include
cut-outs for the high and low speed needle valves, muffler assembly and in-cowl fueling valve assembly. If your engine
is mounted sideways you will need to attach a short piece of wire to your needle valve to make mixture adjustments.
☞
If you are using a Pitt's Style muffler assembly, you will need to attach short lengths of rubber or silicon tubing to the
exhaust stacks to vent the exhaust outside of the cowling.
❑ After making the rest of the necessary cut-outs, slide the cowling partially into place and connect the fuel lines from
the fuel tank to the fueling valve, carburetor and muffler pressure tap.
IMPORTANT
We strongly suggest cutting an air-exit hole in the bottom of the cowling along with the opening needed to clear your
muffler. This will allow hot air to exit the cowling, keeping your engine from overheating.
❑ Slide the cowling into position and realign it. Install and tighten the four 3mm x 12mm wood screws and four 3mm
flat washers to hold the cowling firmly in place.
