Safety Precautions
* This is a high performance radio controlled boat it is not a toy. Adult supervision is
required for children who should be warned about the dangers of playing with gas
engines, fast spinning propellers and of being in close proximity to water.
* This boat is controlled by radio signals which are susceptible to possible
interference from other transmitters, paging systems and other sources of electrical
noise. Before turning on your radio transmitter and receiver, make sure that no one
else in the area is operating a radio on the same frequency (channel).
* After turning on your radio, watch it carefully to ensure that it is operating correctly
and not being affected by interference. Carry out a range check as advised by the
radio manufacturer to ensure you will be able to maintain control of your boat at your
planned maximum operating distance.
* Always fit a "Fail Safe" device so that your engine is stopped should the radio
encounter interference, go out of range or have its battery go flat. Some radios have
inbuilt Fail Safe systems, but others do not. They can be purchased separately at any
good hobby shop.
* When the engine is running, the propeller can spin at high speed. Never touch the
propeller anytime the engine is running. Be very careful that any item such as loose
clothing, shirtsleeves, ties, scarves, long hair or anything else does not get anywhere
close to the propeller, even when it is stationery. If the clutch engages, the propeller
can start to spin without warning and loose clothing etc can become entangled and
cause injury.
* The speed and mass of this boat can inflict 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.
* Model engines generate considerable heat. Do not touch any part of your engine
until it has cooled. Touching the cylinder head or any part of the exhaust system may
