Assemble And Install The Fuel Tank; Mount The Cowl - GREAT PLANES Matt Chapman Cap 580 Instruction Manual

Assemble and Install the Fuel Tank

1. Assemble the stopper, brass tubes and steel stopper
end plates as shown.
2. Solder the brass barbs to the ends of the brass tubes.
Note: Get the tubes just hot enough for the solder to flow. If
you get the tubes too hot it will damage the tank stopper.
3. Attach the clunks to the short brass tubes with 5"
[127mm] pieces of fuel line.
4. Install the stopper assembly in the tank with the vent
line toward one of the longer sides of the tank. Mark that
side of the tank as top.
5. Mount the tank to the tank tray with two #64 rubber bands.
6. Mount the tank tray to the fuse with four #4 x 5/8"
[15.9mm] screws and #4 flat washers.
7. Install the fuel lines. One clunk line goes to the
carburetor; the other clunk line is for filling; the vent line gets
routed out the bottom of the fuse.

Mount the Cowl

1. Slide the cowl over the engine onto the fuselage. Use a
Dremel tool with a cutting bit to trim the cowl where necessary
