ENGINE-SPECIFIC WARRANTY INFORMATION

Our warranty covers only workmanship and manufacturing defects of the original, unmodified, and unused engine and parts, for a period 1 year from the original date of 
purchase.  Neither the engine nor any of its individual parts and components are covered by warranty after the engine has been started or used. Claims for damage caused 
by customer disassembly, use of improper or substandard fuel, use of improper accessories (such as muffler, glowplug, etc.), crashes, abuse, improper operation, improper 
mounting, improper adjustment, or lack of or improper maintenance will not be covered by this warranty. Any use of the product for other than its specific intended use will 
automatically void this warranty. Use only authentic XRAY spare parts, use of any other products will void this warranty. Claims must be accompanied by a dated proof of purchase 
(registered receipt, credit card invoice, etc.).

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR ENGINE

High-performance competition engines can sometimes fail; no guarantee for these types of failures exist, and we are not responsible for the use and treatment of an engine. These 
engines can make extremely high RPMs and build up incredible loads inside. It is extremely important that you check frequently for excess play in any components (especially the 
conrod/big-end) and also engine compression. Most failures occur because of low-quality fuel or mixtures, bad carburetor settings, bad functioning of the air filter, or excessive 
wear of moving parts. Please take note that it is suggested not to modify any parts of the engine. 
If you want to repair the engine yourself, take care of the following:

• Clean the outside of the engine thoroughly before you open it, work on a clean spot, use proper tools. Any dust or dirt that enters the engine will make considerable damage.
• All moving parts inside the engine are subject to wear. If a piston/liner has worn out, or if the big-end/conrod connection has worn, you must replace these parts. If the engine has 

broken you must check that all other moving parts are still in good shape. If you only change one part and other parts are not in good shape, it is highly likely that your engine will 
suffer another failure shortly thereafter. 

• If you want to replace the conrod, be sure the big-end of your crankshaft is still round and at a good size, if not replace the crankshaft. If you do not replace the crankshaft and 

re-use the engine, a failure may occur such as conrod or piston breakage.

• If you replace the piston and liner, be sure to check the big-end on the crankshaft. 
• These high-technology engines need to be treated with precision. If you are not sure how to modify or repair your engine, ask your local dealer to do it for you or return the engine 

to us.

SERVICING THE ENGINE

Should your engine require service, please follow the following guidelines. Do not return the engine to the place of purchase, as they are not authorized or equipped to perform 
service.

1. Remove the engine from the model. We cannot accept equipment for service other than the engine.
2. Along with your engine and proof of purchase, enclose a complete written explanation of the problem(s) with as much detail as possible.
3. Be sure to include your complete and proper name, address, and daytime telephone number(s).

The charges for repairs will be billed to you C.O.D. Please mention if you wish to have an estimation of repair charges prior to us beginning service. (This may cause a slight delay 
in your repair.) Contact your national distributor who will advise you how to proceed.
