FOR YOUR SAFETY - PLEASE READ THESE WARNINGS!
ENGINE WARNINGS
●
Never use any other fuel in your engine other than glow
fuels specifically designed for use in model car engines. Use of
any other types of fuel can cause severe damage to the engine
and/or personal injury. NEVER use gasoline!
●
Never operate your model on any public streets. This could
cause traffic accidents, personal injury or property damage.
●
Glow fuel engines emit exhaust vapors that are poisonous
and can be dangerous to your health. It is important that you
operate your engine in a very well ventilated area, preferably
outdoors.
●
Before starting the engine, make sure that the throttle trim is
set to the idle position. Starting the engine at any setting above
idle can cause the truck to lurch out of your hands.
●
When the engine is running, there are certain parts that ro-
tate at high speeds. Be careful not to touch the drive shafts,
gears, clutch assembly or any other moving parts. Serious in-
jury could result.
●
It is normal for the engine and tuned pipe to get very hot
during operation, especially the cylinder head and muffler or
tuned pipe. Never touch the engine or muffler assembly while
they are hot.
●
Model car engines produce vibration when they are run-
ning. It is important to periodically check the engine mounting
screws, muffler screws and other assemblies to ensure they are
tight. Running the engine with the engine mounting screws loose
can lead to severe engine and/or chassis damage.
FUEL WARNINGS
●
Nitro fuels like those used in your XTM Racing nitro truck
are poisonous. Follow all the precautions that are printed on the
fuel manufacturer's container.
●
Keep fuel out of the reach of children.
●
Nitro fuel is extremely flammable. Keep away from high
heat, sparks and flame.
GENERAL TRUCK WARNINGS
●
Under no circumstances should you operate your model in
crowds of people. Serious injury could result.
●
Never operate your model on busy streets or if there are cars
around. Never drive your model at night, either.
●
Do not use your model to chase pets or other animals.
●
The radio system included in your model is not waterproof.
Therefore, do not drive through water, wet grass or mud.
●
Because your model is operated by radio control, it is im-
portant to make sure you always are using fresh and/or fully
charged batteries. Never allow your batteries to run low or you
could lose control of the model.
●
If your model becomes stuck, allow the engine to idle, then
retrieve your model by hand.
●
To prevent excessive r.p.m.'s from damaging the engine
and/or drive-train components we suggest reducing throttle while
in the air during jumps.
