Safety instructions
Risk of explosion! Fire danger!
Car fuel is highly flammable. When fuelling the car, do not smoke; no open fires!
Stock fuel in well ventilated rooms, away from ignition sources.
-
Only transport the model with an empty tank!
Empty the tank if you do not want to drive the mode for several days.
-
Use appropriate containers for transporting the fuel.
The fuel can eat away and damage varnish and rubber parts.
-
Empty fuel containers as well as fuel wastage are a hazardous waste and must be recycled accordingly.
b) Drive mode
Before starting:
Check all bolted connections and all wheel nuts.
Make sure that the rechargeable batteries (batteries) of both transmitter and receiver are completely charged.
1. Both control levers in neutral position, 2. Switch on remote control transmitter and 3. Receiver
Never drive if your ability to respond is limited (e.g. when tired, under medication or under the influence of alcohol).
Incorrect responses can cause serious damages to people and objects.
-
Do not drive in the direction of gathered people, persons or animals!
-
Always keep visual contact to your model! Do not drive at night.
-
Never drive on roads, which are opened to public road traffic!
Take note of possible conditions and regulations for the site.
-
Never drive without air filter!
-
Check regularly all bolt connections and fasteners, as they may get loosened or detached due to the vibrations of the engine.
-
Avoid long driving in the part-load operational range, since otherwise, engine and clutch (missing air cooling) will overheat!
-
Avoid driving at very low outdoor temperatures.
The synthetic material of the car body loses its elasticity; Therefore, even small collisions may cause chippings and fractures.
c) Remote control
-
Before starting, check the range of your remote control system.
-
Firmly screw the transmitter antenna and pull it out to its entire length.
An antenna that is not completely pulled out reduces the range of the remote control transmitter.
-
Ensure that the throttle/brake servo is in the idle position prior to starting the motor.
-
Check, on the stationary model, whether the servos respond to the signal of the remote control!
-
Check the charge level indicator of your remote control!
Weak or empty rechargeable batteries (batteries) can cause you to lose control over your model.
-
Make sure that nobody else is transmitting in the proximity of your frequency!
Interfering signals on the same frequency can make you lose the control over your model.
Also, when using different modulation types (FM, PPM, AM, PCM), the same frequencyshould not be used.
-
Do not drive under high voltage power lines or radio masts.
-
Do not drive in the case of thunderstorms!
Atmospheric interferences can affect the signals of your remote control transmitter.
-
Don't drive in the rain, through wet grass, water, mud or snow.
The components of your RC system are not waterproof!
-
Always let the remote control and the receiver turned on whilst the engine is running!
-
Switching off: 1. switch off the engine, 2. the receiver then the transmitter!
