more time.
After fuel has reached the carburetor, enhance engine starting
by pulling the recoil starter 2 ~ 3 times to spread fuel through
the engine.
Attach not painted place.
Push the primer button.
Since exhausts and fuel vapors are noxious to
health, use fuel only outdoors!
WARNING

Adjust in the order and after completing the break-in.
The engine stalls.
The car rolls forward.
Unscrew by 1/8~1/4 turns.Tighten by 1/8~1/4 turns.
Before putting your car aside, draw out any fuel
from the tank.
Next, restart the engine to combust remaining
fuel. Leaving fuel inside the engine will make
engine starting difficult.
Wipe off dirt and oil.
Check all parts for screw looseness.
Grease all moving parts.
Disconnect the receiver batteries.

Needle Valve
ENGINE ADJUSTMENT
Needle Valve Adjustment (Maximum R.P.M. Adjustment)
Idle Adjustment Screw (Idling R.P.M. Adjustment)
Place the car on top of a stand with
the wheels aloof from the ground.
1
Start the engine as specified in the chapter < ENGINE STARTING >.
2
Slowly raise the throttle control stick and check whether the tires will
spin or the brake work. (If the tires do not spin at all or spin poorly,
refer to the assembly instruction manual.)
3
Break-in the engine. After each tank consumed, tighten the needle
valve 10¡ ~ 20¡.
4
Raise the throttle trim as long as the engine does not stall.
BREAK-IN
Needle Valve
1
1
Start the engine as explained in the
chapter <ENGINE STARTING> and run
your car.
Monitor the speed of your car running
down a straight with the throttle control
stick moved to high. When tightening
the needle valve 10¡ ~ 20¡, speed increases. As your car
reaches top speed, the needle valve setting is optimal.
2
MAINTENANCE
The break-in is required to condition brandnew engines to regular
and smooth running! If you fail to break-in an engine, the lubricant
inside will not circulate and the engine will be caked with burns;
running becomes difficult and engine life is shortened.
Idle Adjustment Screw
Neutral
Adjust with the throttle control stick in neutral.

When tightening the needle valve further, exhausts become in-
visible and rpm decrease. Running the engine with this setting
will ask for engine damage. Unscrew the needle valve at once.
Note that for normal running, the needle valve is unscrewed 10¡ ~
20¡ from the valveÔs optimal setting position!
During the break-in, do not operate the engine with
high rpm! Serious damage may be the result.
Run the engine a total of 5 tanks to complete the break-in.

Adjust the engine so the car will not speed off when the throttle
control stick is in neutral and you do not apply brakes.
