If you intend to operate the boat with a steam engine installed, it is important to run-in the power plant on
the bench before installing it in the model. This is particularly important for adjusting the flame height
accurately: open the gas regulating valve just to the point where the flame burns cleanly, without any
yellow coloration, and without soot formation. One gas fill provides around 25 minutes of running, although
for safety’s sake you should either refill the gas tank earlier than this, or keep the boat close to the bank
after about 15 - 20 minutes’ running. When the flame goes out, the steam engine stops immediately, and
this could present you with problems in salvaging the boat. Open the regulating valve slightly when re-
filling the tank, as the liquid gas will force the air in the tank out due to its lighter weight. The tank is full
when liquid gas squirts out of the nozzle. Don’t forget to check the water level in the boiler.
Using an exhaust steam condenser helps considerably to prevent the model becoming soiled with a
mixture of condensed water and oil. Remember to empty it after every second or third run.
For more details concerning the operation of the steam engine please refer to the operating instructions
supplied with the power plant.
