Safety Precautions

Never ever attempt to swim after a stalled R/C boat. Do 

not get in the water for any reason to retrieve your boat. 

To aid in retrieving a stalled R/C boat, set up a fi shing 

reel with a tennis ball tied to the end of the line. Better 
yet, get yourself a small Jon boat so you can row out 
and pick up your boat. Remember to use a PFD any 
time you enter your retrieval craft.

  

AquaCraft products are to be used by ages 14 and over.

Do not touch the propeller anytime the motor is running. 
Pay equally close attention to items such as loose clothing, 

shirtsleeves, ties, scarves, long hair or anything that may 
become entangled in the spinning prop. If your fi ngers, 
hands, etc. come in contact with the spinning propeller, you 
may be severely injured.

  

The speed and mass of this boat can infl ict property damage 

and severe personal injury if a collision occurs. Never run this 
boat in the presence of swimmers or where the possibility 
of collision with people or property exists.

Electric motors produce heat. Do not touch any part of your 

motor until it has cooled.

  

This boat is controlled by radio signals, which are susceptible 
to possible interference from other possible electrical noise.

In the event that weeds become entangled in the propeller, 

stop the motor before attempting to remove them.

  

If your boat should happen to stall, water currents will slowly 

carry it to shore. Keep in mind that the boat could be carried 
to the opposite shore. When surveying areas to run your 

boat, keep variables in mind such as wind direction, and 
lake size. It is not advisable to run R/C boats on any free-
fl owing bodies of water such as creeks or rivers.

  

Always remove the battery pack from the boat before 

charging.
