Here is how I install in Serial # 186. With the hopper out I made a template with masking tape. Notice the tape hangs over the edge. You can see in the later photos the rows are connected at the ends with tape going in the opposite direction. This will keep it all together when you peel it off. When drilling the hole in the base start with the bolts in the holes of the tape template then slowly lower using the bolts as guide to get it in place. After drilling the holes with the bit supplied knock the burrs of with a larger bit as shown. Once assembled if the bolt holes are off a little just run the drill bit MAK supplied to line everything up.

Installed the new ignition system today.  Took me a little longer than these younger fellows but that's ok.  This new system flat rips!  Much quicker pellet ignition.  MAK does it again!

I had the new Flashfire put in my MAK 2 Star (1805) and love it. With the old ignitor,  I had a couple times where I did not get a fire to start.  Now with the Flashfire I have had no problems...QUICK is an understatement.  Worth every penny.


LOVE my MAC
