 EACH RUN

BODY INSTALLATION

• Fully extend the transmitter antenna.

• Turn the transmitter on, then turn the receiver on.

• Turn the transmitter wheel to the right—the front wheels should turn to the right. If not, move the steering servo reverse switch.

• When running, adjust the steering trim so the truck tracks straight.

• Pull the throttle trigger to make sure the carburetor opens fully and the throttle linkage functions properly without binding.

• Adjust the throttle trim until the carb is at the idle position. Always adjust idle speed with the idle stop screw on the carb, not

the throttle trim.

• Push the trigger and roll the truck to make sure the brakes are applied.

• Decal the body to your liking. Use the

photos on the box as a reference.

• Install the body onto the chassis using

four body clips.
