User’s Manual for Roto 85 FS Engine 

 
 

Congratulations on purchasing the four stroke engine ROTO, 

                                          manufactured exclusively  in the Czech Republic. 

 
 

You have purchased a new four stroke twin cylinder gasoline engine.  It is important to 
follow a few necessary steps to insure a successful first start in your model airplane. 
 
Since the engine has been started and tested by the manufacturer, it will perform as 
required. 
The engine has been adjusted and tested with an attached 25/10 propeller and the ROTO 
FS exhaust. 

 

Packaging content: 
 
Engine                      1 piece 
Ignition                     1 piece 
Sparkplug wrench    1 piece 
Silicon hose              2 pieces 
Tie straps                   4 pieces 

 

Engine Mounting 

For mounting the engine inside the model airplane,we recommend using 5mm high strength 
steel bolts, large flat washers and lock nuts. 

 

Warning! 
Check the engine mounting for tightness periodically. 

 

Exhaust  

The elbows of the exhaust can rotate.  As soon as the desired position is achieved, the center 
19 mm bolt can be tightened to fix them in place.  

 

Warning! 

 

Do not damage the exhaust elbows ends!  The extension pieces that can be attached to them 

might not seal properly. 

 

The silicon hose is used to seal the joint between the exhaust elbows and the ROTO FS 
exhaust pipes or between the extension piece and the ROTO FS exhaust pipe.  The 
extension piece and the ROTO FS exhaust pipe are not part of the packaging ! 
Use the included tie straps on both ends of the silicon hose to connect the extension piece or 
the exhaust pipe.
