TOOLS, SUPPLIES AND REQUIRED EQUIPMENT

Your model comes with a set of specialty metric tools. You'll need to purchase other items, available from your hobby dealer, to operate
and maintain your model.
SUPPLIED TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT
1.5mm "L" wrench 2.0mm "T" wrench
6-cell 2/3A NiMH battery
WARNING: Lithium Polymer (LiPo) packs should not be used with the XL-2.5 speed control. The XL-2.5 speed control is not equipped with low-voltage detection.
DECORATING YOUR MODEL
APPLYING THE DECALS
The main decals for your model
have been applied at the factory.
The decals are printed on self-
adhesive clear mylar and are die-
cut for easy removal. Use a hobby
knife to lift the corner of a decal
and lift it from the backing. To
apply the decals, place one end
down, hold the other end up, and
gradually smooth the decal down
with your finger as you go. This
will prevent air bubbles. Placing
both ends of the decal down and
then trying to smooth it out will
result in air pockets.
2.5mm ball driver wrench
NiMH battery charger Body clips
TIRE GLUING
The rear tires can be glued to the rims to prevent the rims from spinning
inside the tires. Use CA tire glue available from your local hobby dealer.
You can glue the tires without removing the wheels from the model. For
clarity, these instructions show the process with the wheels removed.
1. Remove a wheel from the model using the larger (7mm) end of the
universal wrench.
2. Use your thumb to push the side of the
tire away from the rim. Place one or two
drops of CA glue into the opening and
release the tire. Capillary action will draw
the glue around the bead of the tire.
3. Repeat step two at four or five points
around the rim, until the tire is
completely secured to the rim. Turn the
rim over and repeat the process for the inside of the rim/tire. Repeat
for the other wheel.
4. Reinstall the wheels, make sure none of the axle pins have fallen out
from behind the hex hubs.
