5. The canopy is held in position at the rear using
a magnet and tabs at the front. Lift the canopy at
the rear and slide it rearward to remove. Set the
canopy aside in a safe location. Your canopy came
in a box inside the kit. We are showing this in case
you had installed it.
7. Place a piece of hook and loop tape on the
battery floor, as well as on the bottom of the battery.
This will keep the battery from sliding fore and aft in
the fuselage.
9. Use two 4-40 x 3/8-inch socket head machine
screws and two #4 washers to secure the cowl to
the firewall. You will need to use a 3/32-inch ball
driver to tighten these screws.
6. Route the two hook and loop straps through the
slots in the battery tray. One will be located near
the front, while the other is located slightly aft of the
wing leading edge.
8. Slide the cowling in position. The pins at the top
and bottom of the cowling at the rear will fit into
the holes in the sub-firewall. The cowl will fit tightly
against the sub-firewall when installed correctly.
9. Use a small piece of hook and loop tape
or double-sided tape (not included) to secure
the switch in the fuselage. Make sure it is
positioned so the canopy hatch can be installed
without any interference.
