Securely attach the engine mount to the
fire-wall using the four 4x25mm screws.
Position the engine on the engine mount beams so the distance from
the prop hub to the fire-wall is 112-114mm. Using a pencil, mark the
engine mounting plate where the four holes are to be drilled.
Note: Mark the mounting plate through the engine mounting flanges.

Reposition the engine on the mounting beams, aligning
it with the holes drilled in Step 3. Insert one 3x25mm
screw through each of the mounting holes. Apply Silicon
to each of the 3x25mm screws and firmly secure the
engine to the motor mount using four 3mm nut.
Set the engine on the
engine mounting beams.
Adjust the spacing of
the beams so they are
centered in relation to
the mounting plate and so they are
almost touching both sides of the
engine crankcase.
