It is of vital importance, before attempting to operate your
engine, to read the general 'SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
AND WARNINGS' in the following section and to strictly
adhere to the advice contained therein.
Also, please study the entire contents of this
instruction manual, so as to familiarize yourself with
the controls and other features of the engine.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS ABOUT YOUR O.S. ENGINE
The advice which follows is grouped under two
headings according to the degree of damage or
danger which might arise through misuse or neglect.
WARNINGS
NOTES
These cover events which might involve serious
(in extreme circumstances, even fatal) injury.
These cover the many other possibilities, generally less
obvious sources of danger, but which, under certain
circumstances, may also cause damage or injury.
Remember that your engine is not a " toy ", but a
highly efficient internal-combustion machine whose
power is capable of harming you, or others, if it is
misused or abused. As owner, you, alone, are
responsible for the safe operation of your engine, so
act with discretion and care at all times. If at some
future date, your O.S. engine is acquired by another
person, we would respectfully request that these
instructions are also passed on to its new owner.
WARNINGS
NOTES
Model engine fuel is poisonous. Do not
allow it to come into contact with the eyes
or mouth. Always store it in a clearly marked
container and out of the reach of children.
Model engine fuel is also highly flammable.
Keep it away from open flame, excessive
heat, sources of sparks, or anything else
which might ignite it. Do not smoke or allow
anyone else to smoke, near to it.
Model engines generate considerable
heat. Do not touch any part of your engine
until it has cooled. Contact with the
muffler (silencer), cylinder head or
exhaust header pipe, in particular, may
result in a serious burn.
Never operate your engine in an enclosed space.
Model engines, like automobile engines, exhaust
deadly carbon-monoxide. Run your engine only in
an open area.
Install an effective silencer (muffler). Frequent close
exposure to a noisy exhaust (especially in the case
of the more powerful highspeed engines) may
eventually impair your hearing and such noise is
also likely to cause annoyance to others over a wide
area.
The wearing of safety glasses is also strongly
recommended.
Take care that the glowplug clip or battery leads do
not come into contact with rotating parts. Also check
that the linkage to the throttle arm is secure.
For their safety, keep all onlookers (especially small
children) well back (at least 20 feet or 6 meters)
when preparing your model for running.
This engine is intended for model cars. Do not
attempt to use it for any other purpose.
Mount the engine in your model securely, following
the manufacturers' recommendations, using
appropriate screws and locknuts.
To stop the engine, fully retard the throttle stick and
trim lever on the trans-mitter, or, in an emergency,
cut off the fuel supply by pinching the fuel delivery
line from the tank.
Warning! Immediately after a glowplug-ignition engine
has been run and is still warm, conditions sometimes
exist whereby it is just possible for the engine to abruptly
restart if it is rotated over compression WITHOUT the
glowplug battery being reconnected.
Before starting the engine, always check the
tightness of all the screws and nuts especially those
of joint and movable parts such as throttle arm.
Missing retightening the loose screws and nuts
often causes the parts breakage that is capable of
harming you.
ENGINE CONSTRUCTION
With this engine, the piston will feel tight at the
top of its stroke (TDC) when the engine is cold.
This is normal. The cylinder bore has a slight
taper. The piston and cylinder are designed to
achieve a perfect running clearance when they
reach operating temperature.

NOTES WHEN APPLYING AN ELECTRIC STARTER
Do not over-prime. This could cause a
hydraulic lock and damage the engine on
application of the electric starter.
If over-primed, remove glowplug, close
needle-valve and apply starter to pump out
surplus fuel. Cover the head with a rag to
prevent any pumped out fuel from getting into
your eyes.
As delivered, the engine has the carburetor
lightly fit into its intake. Secure it changing its
angle according to the car chassis.
NOTE
Please do not run on a public street, this could
cause serious accidents, personal injuries
and/or propetry damage.
Please do not run near pedestrians or small children.
Please do not run in small or confined areas.
Please do not run where loud noises can disturb
others, such as hospitals and residential areas.
While Operating
ABOUT THE ENGINE
FUEL
Generally, it is suggested that the user selects a fuel that is
commercially available for model two-stroke engines When
the brand of fuel is changed, or the nitro content increased, it
is advisable to repeat the running-in procedure referred to in
the RUNNING-IN paragraphs. Please note
that with high-nitro fuels, although power
may be increased for competition purposes,
glowplug elements do not last as long and
engine life will be shortened.
Items necessary for starting
TOOLS, ACCESSORIES, etc.
The following items are necessary for operating the engine.
FUEL FILTER
To installed in the fuel line between fuel
tank and carburetor to prevent foreign
matter from entering the carburetor.
GLOWPLUG IGNITER

ABOUT THE WARRANTY
NOTES ON OPERATION
Since this is a special SPEED version, individual
special parts are available only for limited period
(one year after finishing the production).
Also, the engine is free of warranty due to damage
and/or wear occurred during running.
We have developed this new model working with Adam
Drake one of top drivers in OS international team,
based on B2101, while we apply 21J3(B) carburetor of
OS SPEED 21XZ-B SPEC 3.
The piston/sleeve and the crankshaft are completely
new design. Piston stroke is 16.55mm, and the
double-tungsten counter weighted crankshaft produces
more torque. So the engine is not just a combination of
existing models’ parts but a new model.
The standard accessories, 6.5mm reducer is for buggy
and 8.0mm for truggy, and glow plug is OS SPEED P3
GOLD for better fuel consumption.
