Overheating results from using a pinion gear that is too large,
frequent turns, stops and starts, pushing objects, driving in
water and tall grass, and driving continuously up hill.
• Over-temperature protection is installed on the ESC to prevent
circuit damage, but cannot protect the motor from driving
against heavy resistance.

MAINTENANCE
SHOCK CLEANING
Oil-fi lled shocks will require regular maintenance due to the oil breaking down or getting dirty. This maintenance should be performed
after about every 3 to 5 hours of use, depending on the conditions that the vehicle is used in.
• Remove the shock from the vehicle.
• Remove the cap from the shock body and dispose of fluid.
• Disassemble the shock. Clean thoroughly with DYN5505. Dry parts before assembly.
• Re-assemble the shock and refill the shock body with silicone fluid (80 weight recommended).
• Slowly move the shaft and piston up and down to remove air bubbles.
• Move the piston to the midway point of the body and install the cap.
• Wipe off any overflowing fluid.
• When properly filled, the piston should rebound about 3/8 in (9.5mm) after being pushed in fully.
• Re-install the shock on the vehicle.
