and maintain your new electric R/C vehicle. Read over this
manual thoroughly before building or operating the Evader
BX Pro.
When the safety precautions are followed, the Evader BX
Pro will provide years of enjoyment. Use care and good
sense at all times when operating this radio controlled
buggy. Failure to use this vehicle in a safe, sensible manner
can result in injury or damage to property.You and you alone
must insure that the instructions are carefully followed and
all safety precautions are obeyed.
•
Do not operate the Evader BX Pro near people.
Spectators should be behind the driver or at a safe
distance away from the vehicle.
•
Make sure to read the instructions with the battery and
charger before charging.
•
Do not leave the charger unattended during charging. If
the battery or charger become hot at any time, disconnect
the battery from the charger immediately! Failure to do so
may cause permanent damage to the charger and battery
and may cause bodily harm.
•
Do not cover the air intake holes on the charger during
charging. This may cause the charger to overheat.
•
Do not allow the electronic speed control (ESC) or radio
equipment to come into contact with moisture. Water can
cause the electronics to short out and can cause
permanent damage.
•
Always turn on the transmitter before turning on the
electronic speed control.
•
Before turning on your radio, check to make sure that no
one else is running on the same frequency as your
Evader BX Pro.
•
Avoid working over a deep pile carpet. If you drop a small
part or screw, it will be difficult to find.
•
Place a mat or towel over your work surface.This will prevent
parts from rolling off and will protect the work surface.
