PRIMING THE ENGINE
For the first start, the engine needs
the fuel system primed. This is carried out during your setup.
Push in the Priming Spring Button located on the carb and
squeeze the Priming Bulb to pull the fuel into the system.
Stop immediately when you see the fuel reach the
carburettor inlet. Failure to stop will flood your engine
Squeeze the Priming Bulb one final time to let a small
amount of fuel into the carburettor.
STARTING THE ENGINE Before starting the engine, ensure
ample space behind the trike and make sure the area is clear of
people, wings and other objects. Remember to shout ‘Clear Prop’
in a loud and clear voice – even if nobody is there.
While seated in the Trike, attach your Hand Control to
your right or left hand using the velcro strap. Check your
immediate area in a 360 degree arc to make sure any other
people are at a safe distance.
With your thumb lightly covering the kill switch, take
the pull-start handle in your hand. Pull the starter cord
outwards very gently until you feel starter engage. Shout ‘Clear
Prop’ in a loud and clear voice, then pull downward quickly and
firmly (50-60cm). Repeat process until engine starts.
STOPPING THE ENGINE Allow your engine to idle for 60
seconds without applying any throttle. Shut off the engine by
holding down the kill switch on your hand control until the engine
has completely stopped.

RUNNING THE ENGINE
WARM UP PROCEDURE
Run up your Maverick paramotor as instructed below to ensure
that the engine and transmission are warmed up correctly and to
ensure continuous reliability in the future. Be sure to choose a
flat spacious area of ground which is well ventilated.
When undertaking these procedures with your paramotor
attached to the Trike, ensure you adequately brace the
front wheel to restrict travel, and are sat securely in the pilot seat.
Unfasten the hand control from the pivot arm and attach it
to your right hand using the velcro strap.
Check your immediate area to ensure any persons or
objects are at a safe distance. Always warn those nearby
before starting the engine by shouting ‘Clear Prop’ in a loud and
clear voice.
Making sure your thumb is lightly covering the kill switch,
start the engine using the pull-start handle or by pressing
the start button if your engine is fitted with an electric starter.
Allow the engine run on idle for a couple of minutes without
applying any throttle.
With either yourself or the Trike in a braced position,
squeeze and release the throttle trigger to begin warming
up the engine. Ensure the trigger operates smoothly when
depressing and releasing.
Run the engine progressively in this way for approx. five
minutes to ensure the engine reaches optimum operating
temperature, around CHT 80 c >.
Once engine has reached desired temperature, release the
throttle and let the engine run for 5-10 seconds before
holding down the kill switch on your hand control until the engine
has completely stopped.

WARNING: We recommend that you do not start
your Maverick paramotor while placed on the ground.
Experience has proven that it is much safer to carry out
all pre-flight power checks either with the paramotor
firmly strapped on your back or being sat in the pilot seat
and with the paramotor securely attached to your Trike
chassis.
