When operating Raider 50 in cold weather at sub-zero temperatures the water
in
the
cooling
water pump may freeze and severely damage the pump, impeller, and associated
parts. To avoid this,
submerge
the lower half of the engine
into
the water, or tilt the engine
and operate the electric starter motor for 5
seconds
with the stop switch lock plate taken
away to allow the water to drain completely.
When using JP-5/JP-8 or other heavy fuels it is critical to use the heavy fuel additive.
Heavy fuels are difficult to begin operation; once started the Raider operates as normal.
