THINGS TO
KNOW
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When the safety precautions are followed,
the Evader EXT2 will provide years of
enjoyment. Use care and good sense at all
times when operating this radio controlled
truck. Failure to use this vehicle in a safe,
sensible manner can result in injury or
damage to property. You and you alone
must ensure that the instructions are
carefully followed and all safety precautions
are obeyed.
• Do not operate the Evader EXT2 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 any 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 EXT2.
HELPFUL HINTS
• Avoid working over a deep pile carpet. If
you drop a small part or screw, it may be
diffi cult to fi nd.
• Place a mat or towel over your work area.
This will prevent parts from rolling off and
will protect the work surface.
• Avoid running the truck in cold weather.
The plastic and metal parts can become
brittle at low temperatures. In addition,
grease and oil become thick, causing
premature wear and poor performance.
• Test fi t all parts before attaching
them permanently.
