STORAGE FOR A LONG PERIOD AND USE THEREAFTER

Always follow instructions below after your engine has been stored over a long period.
When your engine has not been used for more than 4 weeks

performance and starting reliability. Older fuel looses a % of volatiles through
evaporation even inside the fuel tank (which is marginally porous) and starting the
engine becomes more difficult. The exhaust becomes oilier and you may also notice
a drop in engine power. Using old fuel will not harm your engine up to about 2
months at which point the properties in the two stroke oil will deteriorate and you
will risk damaging the engine through poor lubrication.
2. You may find that the starter battery charge is low, it is important to keep this
topped up regularly with the charger supplied. If the battery is low then start
charging at least 12 hours before you intend to fly to avoid disappointment as the
