H) Fuelling The Vehicle; I) Switching The Engine On/Off - Reely Black Devil Bedienungsanleitung

h) Fuelling the Vehicle

Open the tank lid and fill the tank with a suitable methanol/oil-basis mixture for RC model cars.
Use a suitable tank bottle for this (not included, available as an accessory).
In the breaking-in stage (about 6 - 10 tank fills in total), a special RC car fuel with approximately 16% nitro
methane should be used.
After the regulatory run-in of the engine (after a pure motor operating time of approximately 60 minutes), you
can switch to a fuel with approx. 20% nitromethane.
In racing operation, a fuel with a nitromethane ratio of up to 25% may be used for top performance. See also
chapter 11. a).
Use fuel for RC cars only! Fuel for RC flight engines has too little oil, causing too little lubrication, which
will cause overheating of the engine and, as a result, severe engine damage. Also never use conventional
mixtures based on petrol fuels (e.g. 1:25 or similar).

i) Switching the Engine On/Off

General information on combustion engines
At commissioning of the new engine, a certain run-in time must be complied with. During this time, engine parts are
tuned to one another, whereby maximal capacity is reached and premature wear is prevented. Breaking in therefore
needs to be performed very carefully!
For more information about breaking in, see chapter 8 g).
Starting
• Place the vehicle on an appropriate surface so that the wheels can turn freely.
• Hold the muffler closed and pull the cable starter several times to suck fuel into the carburettor.
Do this until there are no more visible air bubbles in the fuel hose between the tank and carburettor and the fuel just
about reaches the carburettor.
Attention!
Do not pull out the cable starter all the way but only to a maximum of 3/4 of its length. Determine the rope
length by slow extension (without the glow plug ignition being plugged on!). Do not use any force for pulling
out!
If pulling out is too hard, the motor has „drowned" (too much fuel in the combustion chamber). Observe the
section „Remove fuel when the engine has drowned" on the next page in this case.
• Place the plug starter on the glow plug with the battery fully charged. Observe tight fit of the connection clamp of the
glow plug started on the glow plug.
• Now pull the cable pull starter through until the motor starts up. Hold the model with your other hand. However, never
reach into the drive when holding the model, since it may start up due to engaging of the sliding clutch. Do not hold
the vehicle by its wheels. Danger of injury!
• Once the motor is running, let go of the cable starter and remove the glow plug starter from the glow plug.
Only leave the glow-plug starter connected briefly for starting. Otherwise, the glow plug may burn through prematu-
rely.
