Any of you machinist types know the correct tap for the canopy screws? Looks like a coarse thread. I've searched the instructions and can't seem to find it.

The canopy screws on mine were self tapping sheet metal screws.

The screws for the canopy that came with my kit were self-tapping screws. Your's aren't ?

The screws are self tapping. Just drill the #40 hole per the plans and screw them in. Do not over tighten or you could strip the out.

Well.........they appear to be self-tapping......the confusion comes in the assembly manual "Canopy Assembly 6-C-4 page 7 of 9" which states "Tap the holes in the bent tube frames 6C3-1 and 6C3-1 and along the inside Angle 6C3-4 before the canopy is installed." Well, I pretty much figured I wasn't tapping the inside angle but was confused about the tubes.

This probably calls for putting screws in the holes before actual
installation to ease the final installation.
