Cowling Installation; X 1/2-Inch Socket Head Cap - Hangar 9 Taylorcraft 20cc ARF Assembly Manual

Step 18
Use pliers to make a 90-degree downward bend in the
pushrod at the mark made in Step 17. Trim the wire to
a length of approximately 5/16-inch.
Note: You may find it easier to disconnect the pushrod
from the carburetor and rotate it 180-degrees. This will
allow the bend to be made in an upward direction.
Step 19
Operate the throttle pushrod by hand and make any
slight bends or adjustments necessary for it to operate
smoothly without binding. Connect the pushrod to the
throttle servo and secure it with a snap keeper.

Use a rotary tool fitted with a sanding drum to make
an opening in the lower surface of the cowl in front of
