•
Model engine fuel is flammable. Never allow smoking, sparks, heat
or flame in the presence of fuel or fuel vapors.
• Prolonged exposure to the engine exhaust can be harmful. Avoid
breathing the engine exhaust. Always run your Revo outdoors, in a
well-ventilated area. Never run the engine indoors.
• Do not operate your Revo at night, or anytime your line of sight to the
model may be obstructed or impaired in any way.
• Never operate your Revo in crowds of people or busy pedestrian
areas. Revo is very fast and could cause injury to those unaware of
its presence. Keep small children at a safe distance away from the
operating area.
• Because Revo is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio interference
from many sources beyond your control. Since radio interference can
cause momentary loss of control, always allow a safety margin in all
directions around your model to prevent collisions.
• The engine can be loud. If the noise makes you uncomfortable, wear
ear protection. Be considerate of your neighbors by not running your
model early in the morning or late in the evening.
• Most importantly, use good common sense at all times.
Children under 16 years of age and inexperienced drivers
should not operate the Revo without the supervision
of a responsible and knowledgeable (experienced) adult.
