It is of vital importance, before attempting to operate your
engine, to read the general 'SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
AND WARNINGS' in the following section and to strictly
adhere to the advice contained therein.
Also, please study the entire contents of this
instruction manual, so as to familiarize yourself with
the controls and other features of the engine.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS ABOUT YOUR O.S. ENGINE
Remember that your engine is not a " toy ", but a
highly efficient internal-combustion machine whose
power is capable of harming you, or others, if it is
misused or abused. As owner, you alone are
responsible for the safe operation of your engine, so
act with discretion and care at all times. If at some
future date, your O.S. engine is acquired by another
person, we would respectfully request that these
instructions are also passed on to its new owner.
The advice which follows is grouped under two
headings according to the degree of damage or
danger which might arise through misuse or neglect.
WARNINGS
These cover events which might involve serious
(in extreme circumstances, even fatal) injury.
NOTES
These cover the many other possibilities, generally less
obvious sources of danger, but which, under certain
circumstances, may also cause damage or injury.
WARNINGS
Never touch, or allow any object to come
into contact with, the rotating parts.
Gasoline is poisonous. Do not allow it to
come into contact with the eyes or mouth.
Always store it in a clearly marked
container in a cool and dark place and out
of the reach of children. There is a
possibility that it may damage your health.
1 )
This engine is designed to be expressly run by gasoline fuel.
Use regular gasoline. (No need to use high octane gasoline.)
Mix commercially available 2 stroke engine oil with a 25:1 ratio. Pre-mixed
gasoline is also usable but do not use such as pre-mixed gasoline which
requires the needle settings far away from the factory settings, otherwise
needle settings would be very difficult.
2 )
Carburetor is set at the factory when the engine leaves the factory.
First run the engine with this factory settings. Refer to the INITIAL OPENING
OF THE NEEDLES described later concerning the factory settings.
3 )
Be aware of long flight time due to low fuel consumption.
3 Be sure to use a power source of more than 1500mAh capacity for the
receiver when more than 15 minutes of flight is expected. Also, it is suggested
to check the remaining level frequently and charge the batteries if necessary.
4 )
It is recommended to use 2.4GHz transmitter/receiver.
Since a gasoline engine uses a spark ignition system it is possible that radio
frequency noise from the ignition module can interfere with the receivers
operation if a 72MHz or 40MHz radio is used. Therefore it is recommended that
a 2.4GHz radio system be used, which is not effected by radio frequency noise.
5) Use the exclusive silencer
Use the Powerboost Pipe GT15HZ (code no. 72148000) with GT15HZ600.
Using a silencer developed for glow engines may cause overheating.
Any damages caused by a use of such silencer are not covered under
warranty.
GT15HZ600
Gasoline is highly flammable. Keep it away
from an open flame, excessive heat,
sources of sparks, or anything else which
might cause it to ignite. Do not smoke or
allow anyone else to smoke near to it.
Carry out the mixing of the gasoline and
oil outdoors or in a well ventilated place
away from any source of fire to prevent the
possibility of a fire.
Refill the fuel tank only after the engine is
well cooled down, or there is a danger of fire.
Model engines generates considerable heat.
Do not touch any part of your engine until it
has cooled. Contact with the muffler (silencer),
cylinder head or exhaust header pipe, in
particular, may results in a serious burn.
Observe the laws and regulations in each
country and district concerning the usage,
transportation and storage of gasoline. Ask for
details at the fire station in each district.
Never operate your engine in an enclosed space.
Model engines, like automobile engines, exhaust
deadly carbon-monoxide. Run your engine only
in an open area.
Do not operate the engine or model alone, or
there is a possibility of injury.
NOTES
This engine was designed for model helicopters.
Do not attempt to use it for any other purpose.
Start the engine only after installing it in the model.
Do not start the engine before installing it in the
model, or there is a possibility of injury.
Be sure to use an effective silencer (muffler).
Frequent exposure to an open exhaust may
eventually impair your hearing. Such noise is also
likely to cause annoyance to others over a wide area.
Mount the engine in your model securely, following
the manufacturers' recommendations.
For their safety, keep all onlookers (especially small
children) well back (at least 10 meters) when
preparing your model for flight.
When checking a spark plug with the power source
on, do not hold the plug, plug cap, high tension cord ,
or you will get a shock.
Take care that loose clothing (ties, shirt sleeves, scarves
etc.) do not come into contact with the rotor. Do not carry
loose objects (such as pencils, screwdrivers, etc.) in a
shirt pocket from where they could fall through the rotor
disc.
Be sure to use an electric starter and wear safety
goggles and gloves when starting the engine, or you
will be injured.
Always check the throttle linkage.If it is disconnected,
throttle action becomes uncontrollable, which may
result in a serious accident.
Use an electric starter for this engine. The wearing of
safety glasses is also strongly recommended.
Press the rotor head down securely.
Do not run the engine at high rpm abruptly after
starting the engine, or you will be injured by rotating
rotor.
Be sure to carry out adjustments of the high speed
needle and slow speed needle after stopping the
engine.
If you have to carry the model to the take-off point
with the engine running, be especially cautious.
Hold the rotor securely and keep well clear of
spectators.
Switch off the ignition module to stop the engine or
fully close the throttle valve via the transmitter to
shut off the fuel supply. Otherwise there is a
possibility of injury.
Immediately after the engine is stopped, the engine
may start with a crank even when the ignition switch
is off. Do not crank the engine, or there is a
possibility of injury.
Be sure to install an externally operable switch for
the ignition system battery to stop the engine if it is
started unintentionally with the radio transmitter
turned off or there is the possibility of injury.
Connect the throttle linkage so that the engine can
be stopped via radio operation.
ABOUT THE ENGINE
This is a 2-stroke 15cc gasoline engine GT15HZ600
expressly designed for 600 size (50 glow engine class)
R/C helicopters. Its mount size is the same as GT15HZ,
which is for 700 size (90 glow engine class) helicopters,
but the crankshaft diameter of the threaded part is the
same as standard 50 class glow engine. Therefore you
can fit a fan pulley and a clutch of 600 size helicopter
directly to the crankshaft without modifications.The new
61HA carburetor achieves linear power transition with a
combination of pump unit PD-08.
conversion kit enables a direct fit to ALIGN T-REX 600N
helicopter. The conversion kit consists of Main frames,
a bottom frame, a pinion gear, a set of engine mount,
ball bearings, and collars.
The cooling fan cover for T-REX 700 DFC (ALIGN
code no. H7NB011XXW) and the optional metal
engine fan (ALIGN code no. HN6060) for T-REX
600N are necessary to fit GT15HZ600 to ALIGN
T-REX 600N helicopter.
