The propeller selection and installation

Make sure the prop, spinner and prop bolts before each
flight! Loose prop bolts allow prop movement which will
shear the bolts.
Selection:

• The following props are recommended: 22*10, 23*10, 23*8.
• Only use propeller sizes that are recommended above for

your engine

• The propeller blades must be of the same length.

Installation:

• You must use a drill press to drill your propeller from the rear.
• A drill guide is recommended, but the propeller washer can be

used as a drill template. (Fix the propeller washer onto the
propeller in the center-bore using a bolt and nut.)

• Keep your propeller balanced.

• Screw thread-locking glue is necessary

Engine starting procedure

1. Fill the tank with fresh filtered fuel.

set to low.

5. Begin flipping the prop through its compression stroke until

the engine fires.

6. Wait for the propeller to stop spinning, turn off the ignition,

and open the choke(s)

Carburetor Tuning and Care

The use of a tachometer is highly recommended. And, again,
never adjust the needles while the engine is running!

1. Using the tachometer tune the engine for maximum power

with the high needle (H).
