❑
Connect a fully charged glow starter to the top of the glow plug, making sure that the
glow starter is locked firmly onto the top of the glow plug. You don't want it to fall off while
you're trying to start your engine.
❑
While holding the truck with one hand, carefully start your engine.
❑
To stop your engine, carefully pinch the fuel line with your fingers until the engine
stops. Make sure to pinch the fuel pick-up line and not the fuel pressure line. The fuel
pick-up line is connected to the carburetor.

Be careful not to touch any parts of the engine or tuned pipe because
they will be hot.
SECTION 6: MAKING CHASSIS ADJUSTMENTS
Chassis alignment and geometry are important if you want your X-Cellerator Racer to perform well. A good performing truck means a
truck that is easier to drive, too. Follow our guidelines in this section to get the most out of your truck.

It's very important when making changes to the settings of your truck that you make the settings the same for each
side. For example, if you change the camber angle on the right front tire, you should change the camber angle on the left front tire
the same amount. If you change the spring tension on the left front shock, you should change the spring tension on the right front
shock the same amount, and so on.
Do not make any changes that are more than 3 degrees from the initial settings listed or the handling characteristics of your truck will
become very poor.
RECOMMENDED INITIAL CAMBER SETTINGS:
●
For driving on smooth surfaces set both the front and back wheels at 0 degrees.
●
For driving on rough surfaces set the front wheels at -1 degree and the back wheels at -2 degrees.
Negative Camber
Positive Camber
Camber changes the amount of the tire's surface that contacts the ground. Tires that are exactly perpendicular to ground have 0
degrees of camber. If the top of the tires lean toward each other, the tires have negative camber. If the top of the tires lean out away from
each other, the tires have positive camber.
●
Adjust the camber angle of the front and/or rear wheels by turning the upper turnbuckles with the adjustment tool included.
Step 1: Adjusting the Camber Angle
☞
Camber settings should be measured
with the vehicle at its normal ride height.
