03).  Remove the O-rings and spacer and replace with genuine replacement parts.
04).  Re-assemble the shock following the refi lling instructions above.

5.  Tires and wheels:

a.  Inspect the tires to ensure they are properly glued to the wheels. The tires on your vehicle come pre-glued from the factory; 

however after running your vehicle it is possible for the glue to come loose in some areas.

i.  To reattach the tire to the wheel, use hobby grade Cyanoacrylate (CA) glue and apply small amounts (one drop at a 

time) between the tire and wheel. Allow the glue to fully dry before operating your vehicle.

Caution: Be sure to use extreme care when using hobby-grade CA glue. It is specially formulated to cure quickly and create 
a strong bond. It will bond skin and can cause injury if used improperly. Follow manufacturer’s warnings and directions 
when using CA glue. It is always recommended to wear eye protection when maintaining your vehicle.

ii.  When reinstalling tires, use caution when tightening the nuts that secure the wheels to the vehicle. Ensure the wheels  

rotate freely after installed but don’t wobble excessively. Over tightening the wheels may cause excess strain on the 
electrical and mechanical components of your vehicle. Operating your vehicle under these conditions will void your war-
ranty.

iii.  Taking the above into consideration, leaving wheels too loose can cause them to strip. It is recommended to check that 

the wheel nuts are tight every time you run your vehicle.

iv.  Tire wear: Consequently running your vehicle will cause the tires to eventually wear out. Be sure to obtain and use 

genuine replacement parts from your local hobby dealer when necessary.

6.  General wear and tear:

a.  Use of your vehicle will cause general wear and tear which is not covered under warranty yet may necessitate replacement 

of components. Continued operation of your product with worn components may cause continued damage to other compo-
nents.

b.  Be sure to regularly inspect your vehicle and accessories for excess wear and damaged components.

Storage:

•  Always store all equipment in a cool dry place when not in use.
•  Always disconnect the batteries before storage.
•  Never store the battery, vehicle or transmitter in direct sunlight for extended periods of time.
•  Never store the transmitter with batteries installed for extended periods of time. Doing so may allow the batteries to leak and 

cause permanent damage to the transmitter.

Disposal:

Your product is equipped with NiMH batteries which are considered electronic waste and should never be discarded in standard 
garbage containers. Please visit your local hobby dealer (and some hardware stores too) and use the FREE battery disposal center 
for proper disposal/recycling. Consult your local city hall for information on recycling other electronic waste.
