SECTION 4: PREPARING TO RUN YOUR X-FACTOR NITRO MONSTER TRUCK
Now that you are familiar with the major component parts of your X-Factor Nitro Monster Truck, and with the functions of the Hitec Lynx
Sport transmitter, it's time to prepare your X-Factor for its first run.
Step 1: Final Assembly
❑
Push the antenna down into the molded hole
in the top of the transmitter.
❑
Thread the antenna (clockwise) into place
and tighten it
gently
until it stops.
❑
Remove the plastic battery cover.
❑
Install 8 AA Alkaline batteries into the battery
tray, making sure that the polarity is correct.
❑
Reinstall the battery cover.
❑
Remove the two screws holding the battery
box in place, then remove the battery box from
the chassis.
❑
Remove the battery holder from the battery box.
❑
Install 4 AA Alkaline batteries into the battery
holder, making sure that the polarity is correct.
Note:
Make sure that the batteries are pushed
firmly into place.
❑
Carefully plug the two red connectors firmly
together, then push the battery holder into the
battery box along with the wires and connectors.
❑
Reinstall the battery box, making sure that you
don't pinch the wires.
❑
Carefully insert the end of the receiver antenna
wire into one end of the plastic antenna tube.
❑
Slide the antenna through the tube and out
the other end.
❑
Push the end of the plastic tube firmly into the
molded hole in the receiver box cover.
Note:
Leave the excess antenna hanging from
the top of the tube. Under no circumstances
should you cut or shorten the antenna.
❑
Slide the transmitter's on/off switch to turn on
the transmitter. The green LED should glow
brightly.
Note:
If the green LED does not glow or if the red
LED is glowing, check the batteries and replace
them if necessary.

Slide the receiver's on/off switch to turn the
receiver on. You should hear the servos move to
their proper positions.
