Engine Installation - Kangke HOWARD DGA 15 Assembly Manual

Fit wing wires, (longer rods for stab to fin
connection), and attach.
Tighten the stab and fin connection assemblies
and apply a drop of medium CA to prevent the
assemblies from coming loose.

ENGINE INSTALLATION

The following instructions show the installation
of the engine.
The engine being used in this manual is the new
SPE 43cc gas engine which is also available
from KangkeUSA, (www.kangkeusa.com)
Use the mount guide which comes with the
engine. Line the mount up with lines which are
located on the firewall. Temporarily affix the
motor mount guide and drill out the bolt holes in
the firewall for the engine standoffs.
Now install the engine standoffs. Use blue lock-
tite
on the mounting bolts. Place a large washer on
the inside of the firewall to prevent wood
compression. For this project, it was necessary to
also install 4 large washers behind each of the
standoffs to gain the necessary clearance of the
cowl mounting assembly.
Next, with muffler removed, mount engine to
standoffs, again using blue lock-tite.
