Fig.-13:
Insert the coated end of a Firestar™ or other
igniter through the nozzle throat until it stops against the
smoke charge element.
3-2.
Secure the igniter to the nozzle with a piece of masking
tape.
3-3.
Install the motor into the rocket's motor mount tube.
Ensure that the motor is securely retained in the rocket
by using positive mechanical means to prevent it from
being ejected during recovery system deployment.
3-4.
Prepare the rocket's recovery system and then launch
the rocket in accordance with the Tripoli Rocketry
Association (TRA) Safety Code and National Fire Pro-
tection Association (NFPA) Code 1127.
Chapter 4. Post-Recovery Cleanup
NOTE:
Perform motor clean-up as soon as possible after motor
firing. Propellant and delay residues become difficult to remove
after 24 hours and can lead to corrosion of the metal parts. Place
the spent motor components in the reload kit plastic bags and
boxes and dispose of properly.
4-1.
After the motor has cooled down, unthread and remove
the forward and aft closures.
4-2.
Remove the smoke charge insulator from the forward
closure and discard. Using wet wipes or damp paper
towels, remove all delay and propellant residue from the
closures.
4-3.
Remove and discard the forward and aft o-rings from
the motor case. Remove the liner, forward seal disk and
nozzle from the casing by pushing on the nozzle end
and discard.
NOTE:
The phenolic seal disk provided
with this reload kit is designed for one use only. Using
wet wipes or damp paper towels, wipe the inside of the
casing to remove all propellant residue.
4-4.
Apply a light coat of grease to all threads and the inside
of the motor case. Reassemble metal parts and store
motor in a dry place.
Chapter 5. First Aid
For a minor burn, apply a burn ointment. For a severe burn,
immerse the burned area in ice water at once and see a
physician as quickly as possible. In the unlikely event of oral

ingestion of the propellant, induce vomiting and see a physician
as quickly as possible. The AeroTech/RCS composite propellant
consists primarily of ammonium perchlorate and a rubber-like
plastic elastomer.
Chapter 6. Disposal
Damaged or defective reload kits should be returned to RCS.
Chapter 7. Fire Safety
Tests show that the pyrotechnic components of RMS™ reload
kits will not explode in fires and normally will not ignite unless
subjected to direct flame and then will burn slowly. Use water to
fight any fires in which AeroTech/RCS RMS™ reload kit pyro-
technic components may become involved: Direct the water at
the AeroTech/RCS RMS™ reload kit pyrotechnic components
to keep them below their 550 deg. F autoignition temperature.
Foam and carbon dioxide fire extinguishers will NOT extinguish
burning propellants of the type used in RMS™ reload kit pyro-
technic components. Keep reload kit pyrotechnic components
away from flames, sources of heat and flammable materials.
