Page 9: Fuel
If you choose a particular oil grade try not to change it. If it is necessary, try to change it as rarely as possible. The Nitro 200 and Tornado 280 engines are not designed to work with marine or mineral oils! Warning: Mixed fuel loses its properties with time. -
Page 10: Priming & Starting The Engine
4. Priming & Starting the engine Every time you want to start up the engine you must secure the gas throttle in such a way that it will not be possible to turn it on by accident. You should also check whether the carburetor throttle is not left ajar. -
Page 11: Turning Off The Engine
A properly regulated and primed engine usually starts after one or two pulls (pull starter version) or two seconds of electric starter use. A well tuned engine works steadily at idle speed, though immediately after the start-up the speed is much higher than 2000 rpms and decreases during the warm-up. -
Page 12: The Run-In And The Engine Use
You should also check whether the engine does not choke and does not have the tendency to cut out. If you observe any alarming symptoms please contact the distributor or Air Conception directly. 5.3 The run-in of the engine in the first hours of flight... - Page 13 Spark plug evaluation in the engine working previously for a long time at idle speed is not reliable. For proper evaluation you should turn the engine off after a few minutes on medium and high speed (horizontal flight) and land on the turned-off engine. Attention: Evaluating the state of the spark plug is the only one way of checking whether the mixture’s composition is correct! Second stage: If the spark plug has dark color or is black after the test flight, we can...

Page 14: Spark Plug Diagnosis
The run-in time for the “Nitro 200” or “Tornado 280” engine is about 10 hours of flight. The practical way of estimating the length of run-in stage is using up 1 liter bottle of oil. -
Page 15: Regulating The Carburetor During The Run-In Time
5.5 Regulating the carburetor during the run-in time Before sale every carburetor is set to default, factory settings. You only need to regulate the idle speed because it changes together with the changes in atmospheric pressure (horizontal screw lifting the throttle lever). After the warm-up, we set speed on 2100-2200 rpm or so that the engine could work steadily and would not cut out. -
Page 16: Pre-Flight Inspection And Adjustments
6. Pre-flight inspection and adjustments 6.1 Pre-flight paramotor inspection Checking up the paramotor before taking off includes obligatory inspection of the propeller cage mount and gas throttle performance. The propeller inspection entails checking that it is mounted securely and inspecting for mechanical damages or cracks. The propeller should rotate steadily, and silently. -

(L for low speed) and highspeed mixture composition screw (H for high speed). Default mixture composition screws settings for Nitro 200 engine are as follows: The L screw unscrewed for 1 turn from closed position. -
Page 18: Other Maintenance Operations
• Pay special attention to all leakages, scratches and atypical stains. In case of any • doubts, contact an Air Conception representative. Check the frame and the propeller cage. Check the construction’s geometry. Inspect • thoroughly harness settings, condition of tapes, carbines and braking system. - Page 19 Compression of the 6 exhaust springs is very important. Too tight springs will create stress on the exhaust system and may cause exhaust cracking. Springs that are not tight enough with a length of more than 10 mm may also cause exhaust cracking. Not tight enough transmission belt may cause the engine hard or impossible to start and will cause accelerated belt wear.
- Page 20 Every 50 hours or once a year: The same as every 25 hours plus: 1. Replace the starter rope (if any). 2. Check the exhaust silencer condition. 3. Replace the transmission belt (non-clutch engine only). Every 100 hours: The same activities as every 50 hours plus: 1.
