ENGINE INSTALLATION

!
Step 1. Thread a clutch pin/screw (151) into each of the small
holes in the flywheel (152) and tighten with a .050" Allen wrench.
!
The screws should be inserted from the rear as shown.
A small amount of thread-lock compound should be
used on the threads of the clutch pins.

Step 2. Remove any hardware that came installed on the
crankshaft of your engine. This includes all nuts, washers, and
prop hubs.
*NOTE: If your engine did not come with a glow plug you will need to
purchase one. Use a glow plug wrench, or a 5/16" nut driver to install
the glow plug into the head of the engine. Most glow plugs come with a
brass washer. Make sure that this washer is placed on the glow plug
before it is installed.

Step 3. Slide the correct size flywheel shim (153) over the crank-
shaft, and against the front bearing on the engine. Slide the flywheel
collet (154), large side first, over the crankshaft and next to the shim
(153).
!
Step 4. Slide the flywheel (152), pins out, over the crankshaft.
The flywheel (152) should be seated over the collet (154). Thread
the clutch nut (155) onto the crankshaft and tighten it using a
3/32" Allen wrench.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The clutch nut should be very
tight. Hold the flywheel with a rag in order to get a good grip
while tightening the clutch nut. There are special tools available
for inserting in the head of the engine to keep it from turning
over while tightening the clutch nut. Other than these special
tools, nothing should ever be inserted in the head of the engine to
keep it from turning over!
