ENGINE MOUNTING

 

During the break

-

in process the engine must be installed in an environment where vibration can be ab-

sorbed i.e. in the model or with soft mount if bench running. Hard mounting to a bench without adequate 
vibration damping may cause vibration damage to internal parts and shorten the life of the engine. The 
best way for break

-

in process is mount the engine in the model. 

 

Always stand clear of and behind the propeller; never allow anyone including yourself, to be in front of or 
to the sides of the propeller when starting or running the engine. Anyone near the engine should wear 
protective eyewear. 

NEVER WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING 

near the engine or propeller.
