b) Assembly
•
During vehicle assembly, there is a risk of injury due to sharp edges, pointed parts and improper handling
of tools.
•
Improper assembly may result in damage to vehicle parts and poor performance. So be very careful
when assembling.
• To assemble the vehicle, use only a sufficiently large, flat, and stable surface. Protect the surface of a
work table from scratches by using a suitably thick underlay.
•
Do not use force when assembling parts. Do not overtighten the screws! However, make sure that
screws, nuts, etc. are tightened correctly.
•
For assembly, use suitable tools in excellent condition.
•
Take your time!
•
If you have never assembled such a vehicle before, seek guidance from an experienced fellow model
maker. A few helpful tips and assistance from a professional can easily solve many problems, especially
at the beginning of a “model making career”.
c) Operation
•
We recommend that you use a latter-day 2.4 GHz remote control. However, if you are still using an older
generation 27 or 40 MHz remote control to operate the model, make sure before every use that no other
models are operated on the same frequency within the range of the remote control. Control over the
remote controlled vehicle will be lost! Always use different frequencies for each model.
•
With every operation, the settings of the trim regulator for forward/reverse drive as well as those for
steering must be checked, and if necessary, modified.
For this reason, the wheels of the vehicle must not be put on the ground during setup (switching on the
remote control and the vehicle). Place the vehicle on a suitable surface so that the wheels can turn freely
(do not touch the drive!).
Then adjust the trim accordingly so that when the lever for the forward/reverse drive (neutral position)
is fully released, the motor stops rotating or the steering is straight (straight drive can accurately be
adjusted later while operating the vehicle).
• During setup, always switch on the remote control (transmitter) first. Only then can the rechargeable
battery pack of the vehicle be connected with the cruise control/receiver and the model be switched on.
Otherwise there may be unexpected responses by the cruise control/receiver and therefore the electric
model!
•
Improper use can cause serious injury and damage to property! Only use the vehicle when it is within
your sight. Do not use the vehicle at night.
•
Only use the vehicle when you are fully alert and able to respond. As is the case when driving a real
vehicle, fatigue, alcohol or medications can affect your ability to react.
•
Please note that this model vehicle should not be driven on public roads or streets. Only operate it on
private sites or places which are specifically designated for remote-controlled models.
•
Driving a model on a model racing/rally track requires prior permission of the owner.
•
Do not drive the vehicle towards people or animals!
