Thank you for choosing the Team Losi XXX-NT
Adam Drake Edition
as your vehicle to enjoy the exciting world of nitro powered all-terrain
racing. The XXX-NT
Adam Drake Edition
is the result of hundreds of hours of computer-aided design and on-track testing by our world
champion development team. The XXX-NT
Adam Drake Edition
represents the latest in technology and meets the unique demands of nitro
powered off-road racing.
Since fuel powered models tend to require greater mechanical tuning ability, it is important that you read through this manual
completely before beginning assembly. A little extra time now will save building time and help get your new truck running sooner. You
will find that our unique bag-by-bag assembly is both quick and easy to follow. You will also notice that we have included a separate tip
section along with helpful hints throughout this manual to help you tune your XXX-NT
Adam Drake Edition
and maximize your enjoyment of
this kit.
Once again, thank you for making a wise choice… the XXX-NT
Adam Drake Edition
Team Losi
WELCOME XXX-NT OWNER!
NOTES & SYMBOLS USED

This is a common figure number found at the beginning of each
new illustration throughout the manual.
!
Step 1. - Each step throughout the entire manual has a check box
to the left of it. As you complete each step, mark the box with a check.
If you need to take a break and return to building at a later time you will
be able to locate the exact step where you left off.
*NOTE:
This is a common note. It is used to call attention to
specific details of a certain step in the assembly.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Even if you are familiar with Team
Losi kits, be sure and pay attention to these notes. They point out
very important details during the assembly process. Do not ignore
these notes!
!
This wrench designates a performance tip. These tips are
not necessary, but can improve the performance of your
XXX-NT truck.
In illustrations where it is important to note which
direction parts are pointing, a helmet like this one will be included
in the illustration. The helmet will always face the front of the car.
Any reference to the right or left side will relate to the direction of
the helmet.
KIT/MANUAL ORGANIZATION
This kit is composed of different bags marked A through F. Each bag
contains all of the parts necessary to complete a particular section of
the XXX-NT
Adam Drake Edition
truck. Some of these bags have
subassembly bags within them. It is essential that you open only one
bag at a time and follow the correct sequence, otherwise you may face
difficulties in finding the right part. It is helpful to read through the
instructions for an entire bag prior to starting assembly. Key numbers
(in parentheses) have been assigned to each part and remain the same
throughout the manual. In some illustrations, parts which have al-
ready been installed are not shown so that the current steps can be
illustrated more clearly.

For your convenience, an actual size hardware identification guide
is included with each step. To check a part, hold it against the silhou-
ette until the correct part is identified. In some cases extra hardware
has been supplied for parts that may be easy to lose.
The molded parts in this kit are manufactured to demanding toler-
ances. When screws are tightened to the point of being snug, the
parts are held firmly in place. For this reason it is very important that
screws not be overtightened in any of the plastic parts.
To insure that parts are not lost during construction, it is recom-
mended that you work over a towel or mat to prevent parts from rolling
away.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
1. Select an area for assembly that is away from the reach of
small children.
The parts in the kit are small and can be swallowed by
children, causing choking and possible internal injury.
2. The shock fluid and greases supplied should be kept out of
children’s reach.
They were not intended for human consumption!
3.
Exercise care
when using
any
hand tools, sharp instruments,
or power tools during construction.
4.
Carefully read all manufacturer’s warnings and cautions
for any
glues, fuel, or paints that may be used for assembly and operating
purposes.
5. Gas powered vehicles should not be operated indoors.
6. Be careful when handling your truck after it has been run
for any period of time. The engine and many parts can get ex-
tremely hot during operation.
