carburetor is factory adjusted to
deliver optimum performance. See
the Zenoah Engine manual for
fine-tuning adjustments and other
helpful information to make your
RC boating experience trouble-free.

Priming the Engine

Press the priming bulb several times until it becomes
filled with fuel. This is not necessary if the engine
has recently been run.

Choking the Engine

Close the choke by rotating the small yellow
tubing extension. This is not necessary if the
engine is warm.

Pull-starting the Engine

With an assistant holding the boat to the boat
stand and bracing the engine with one hand, pull
the starting cord briskly several times. Once the
engine fires (begins to start), open the choke.
Prolonged choking will flood the engine with fuel.
See Section 15: Troubleshooting Guide to correct
the flooding condition.

Note: The engine is water-cooled.
Refrain from running the engine
without proper cooling water or
engine damage will result. Carefully
place the boat in the water as soon
as possible after the engine has
been started.
