part of the manuel, hanging the engine. However ran into a problem straight 
away.
The lower STBD bolt, that they tell you cut to 95mm and grind a flat in the
head, How do you get it in????? Firstly now iv trimmed it to 95mm, once the
nut is on, there is 1/2 to 1 tread poking out but more importantly when you try
to put it in from above the turbo the angle it is as there is no way its going
in! The curved casting of the turbo keeps the bolt at an angle. Any input
is appreciated. Many thanks Frank

Franck,

Not sure exactly what bolt you are talking about, engine to ring or ring 
to engine mount or else, maybe your are refering to some particular 
Europa manual or something else.
Two things could help :
- The official Rotax installation manual is downloadable from the Internet
- If your setup is different from the Rotax standards, why not just 
temporarily remove the turbo elbow which seems to be in the way ?
FWIW
