Page 4: High-Speed Needle
Base Start-up Settings from the Factory High-Speed Needle—3 turns out from bottom Low-Speed Needle—2 turns out from bottom Engine Tuning After the engine is broken in, you can tune it for optimum performance. When tuning, it is critical that you be cautious of overheating as severe damage and premature wear can occur. - Page 5 Hi-Speed Adjustment After initial acceleration, the engine should pull at a steady rate while maintaining a two-stroke whine and a noticeable trail of smoke. If the engine labors and is sluggish with heavy smoke, the mixture is too rich and needs to be leaned by turning the high-speed needle clockwise in one-hour increments until it runs smoothly.

Page 6: Radio Operation
Radio Operation It is important that you familiarize yourself with the radio system, as this is your direct link to the model. Never run your model with low receiver or transmitter batteries. Never leave the power on or the batteries will not last long. Always fully extend the transmitter antenna before running your model. -
Page 7: Speed Adjustment
2-Speed Adjustment Although pre-adjusted at the factory, the two-speed can be adjusted to shift at the point that suits you best. Under normal circumstances, it should shift slightly before the engine reaches maximum power. The actual distance traveled will vary with the gear ratio and tune of the engine. There are two adjustment screws (see fig 1) that must be changed evenly for the two-speed to function correctly. - Page 8 Replacing the 2-Speed Gears Be sure to replace the one-way bearing in the same direction as removed. Replacing the Clutch Bell Use a 3/32” wrench (provided) to remove the retaining screw (turn counterclockwise) while firmly hold- ing the flywheel with a pair of pliers. Remove the screw, washers and clutch bell, being careful not to lose any shims that may be used.
