Self-tapping (TP) screws cut threads into the parts
when being tightened. Excessive force may
permanently damage parts when tightening TP
screws. It is recommended to stop tightening when
the part is securely attached or when some resistance
is felt after the threaded portion enters the plastic.
This kit contains many screws in and other hardware
different metric sizes and shapes. For your reference,
the figures in the manual show actual sizes. (Some

OPERATING YOUR MODEL SAFELY
Do not put your hands or
any objects into rotating
parts, as this could result in
serious accidents!
The motor and Ni-Cd
battery get hot from run--
ning. Do not touch them
for a while after running.
Never dispose of Ni-Cd batteries into a fire, as these
can explode or emit noxious gases from heavy met-als
used in Ni-Cd batteries !
when disassembling or modifying Ni-Cd batteries.
Never do that!
For accident prevention, do not run your model under
the following circumstances:
in places where many people gather!
when rivers are swollen or their current is strong!
with weak radio batteries!
Also make sure that nobody is using the same
frequency as you do at the same time!
when the boat behaves or operates strangely!
Do not dispose of Ni-Cd batteries! Return them to the
retail shop!
With R/C boats, discover a new world of pleasure.
Wheth-er you run your boat on lakes, rivers or else-
where, take precautionary measures to avoid accidents.
CHECK
When NOT using the model, always
switch off the receiver and transmitter!
Furthermore, disconnect the Ni-Cd
battery and remove it from the model!
This may lead to overheat and fires!
