Important Safety Advice 

You have purchased a model aircrraft kit which can be used to build a fully functional 
radio control model, together with the nessesary aditional parts and accessories. The 
tit  manufacturer  GRAUPNER  have  no  control  over  customer  compliance  with 
assembly  and  operating  instructions  as  well  as  the  installation,  operation,  use  and 
maintenance  of the  components  associated with  the  model. Therefore  GRAUPNER 
accept  no  liability  for  losses,  damages  or  costs  which  arise  from  operational  or 
behavioural errors or which are in any other way connected with the aforementioned 
kit.  If  not  stipulated  by  law  the  company  GRAUPNER  is  under  no  obligation  to  pay 
compensation  for  whatever  reason,  including  personal  injuries,  death,  damage  to 
buildings as well as damages caused by loss of turnover or business, by interruption 
of  business  or  other  indirect  or  direct  consequential  damages  resulting  from  the 
operation  of  the  model  aircraft.  Under  all  circumstances  and  in  any  case  the  total 
liability is limited to the amount that has actually been paid for this model. 
 
The assembly and operation of the model is undertaken solely at the operator’s risk. 
Cautious and considerate handling on the part of the user when operating the aircraft 
is essential in order to prevent personal injuries and damage to property. 
 

During the construction phase

 

Please  observe  the  safety  and  handeling  instructions  of  the  manufacturers  when 
handling  adhesives  and  solvents.  Some  adhesives  and  solvents  can  cause  health 
problems  and  material  damage  if  not  used  correctly.  Dispose  of  leftover  glue  and 
paint safely by returning them to a specialist dealer or taking them your local waste 
disposal  collection  site.  Be  aware  that  handling  sharp  balsa  knives  and  pins  can 
easily  lead  to  injuries.  Ensure  that  children  have  no  access  to  tools,  glues  or 
varnishes.A  generously  sized  clear  working  space  is  a  particular  advantage  for  all 
handicrafts. 
 

Please  seek  the  advice  of  an  experienced  aero-modeller  for  assistance  with 
any aspect of the construction processes with which you are unfamiliar.
