anything that can ignite.

• Always ensure the aircraft is secure 

and will not move once the engine is 

started.

• Always rebind your transmitter 

to your receiver(s) after setup and 

before first flight.

• Always ensure the throttle failsafe is 

set to low throttle in your transmitter.

• Always perform a range check prior 

to flight. 

• Always cut off the fuel supply (pinch 

or disconnect the fuel line to the 

carburetor) or use the throttle linkage 

to shut off the air in order to stop the 

engine.

• Never use hands, fingers, or any other 

body part to stop the propeller.

• Never throw any object into a 

propeller to stop it.

• Never run the engine in the vicinity 

of loose small objects, such as gravel 

or sand, to avoid the propeller uncon-

trollably throwing such materials. 

• Never wear loose clothing or a loose 

neckstrap when operating your model 

engine as these  items could become 

entangled in the propeller.

• Never have loose objects such as 

screwdrivers, pencils etc. in your 

pockets when operating your model 

engine. These could fall into the 

propeller.

• Never allow fuel to come into contact 

with eyes or mouth.  Gasoline and 

other fuels used in model engines are 

poisonous.

• Always ensure gasoline and fuel  are 

stored in a clearly marked container 

well away from the reach of children.

Precautionary Guidelines

• Always mount the engine securely on 

a bench mount or high-quality engine 

mount.

• Always use the correct size and pitch 

of propeller for your engine. Refer to 

Propeller Chart in this manual.

• Always confirm proper balance of 

your propeller prior to installation 

of the engine. Failure to do so could 

cause damage to the engine and/or 

the airframe.

• Always utilize an electric starter to 

start your engine.

• Always discard any propeller that 

is nicked, scratched, cracked or 

damaged in any way.

• Always run your model engine in a 

well-ventilated area. Model engines 

produce possibly harmful carbon 

monoxide fumes.

• Always store your fuel safely in a 

sealed, water-resistant container. 

• Always store fuel in a cool, 

dry location. Do not allow fuel  

containers to come in direct contact 

with concrete, as the fuel may absorb 

moisture.

• Always responsibly discard fuel if 

there is condensation and/or water 

inside the fuel container.

• Never return unused fuel from the 

fuel tank back into the fuel container.

• Never attempt to repair or modify a 

propeller beyond its intended use.

• Never handle model engines, 

mufflers and/or tuned pipes until they 

have had time to cool. They become 

extremely hot when in use.
