Welcome Team Losi XXX-S Owner!
Thank you for selecting Team Losi and the XXX-S Graphite Plus as your new racing sedan. As you will see, we have made
every effort to design and produce a kit that is not only the most competitve, but easy to build and maintain. The simple bag-
by-bag assembly sequence and unmatched easily followed instructions, combined with Team Losi's world famous quality-
fitting parts, should make building your new XXX-S a most enjoyable project.
Before you open the first bag or start any assembly, please take a few moments to read completely through the following
instructions. This will familiarize you with the various parts as well as the tools you will need. Taking an extra moment before
starting can save you a good deal of time and assure proper assembly.

NOTES & SYMBOLS USED
This is a common step number found at the beginning of each
new illustration throughout the manual.
q 1. Each step throughout the entire manual has a check box to the
left of it. As you complete each step, mark the box with a check. If you
need to take a break and return to building at a later time you will be
able to locate the exact step where you left off.
This is a common note. It is used to call attention to specific
details of a certain step in the assembly.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Even if you are familiar with Team
Losi kits, be sure and pay attention to these notes. They point out
very important details during the assembly process. Do not ignore
these notes!
In illustrations where it is important to note which
direction parts are facing, a helmet like this one will be included in the
illustration. The helmet will always face the front of the car (as the
driver would sit). Any reference to the right of left side will relate to
the direction of the helmet.
The kit is composed of different bags marked A through H. Each
bag contains all of the parts necessary to complete a particular sec-
tion of the XXX-S. Some of these bags have subassembly bags within
them. It is essential that you open only one bag at a time and follow
the correct assembly sequence, otherwise you may face difficulties
in finding the correct part. It is helpful to read through the instruc-
tions for an entire bag prior to beginning assembly. Key numbers (in
parenthesis) have been assigned to each part and remain the same
thoughout the manual. In some illustrations, parts which have al-
ready been installed are not shown so that the current steps can be
illustrated more clearly.
For your convenience, an actual-size hardware identification
guide is included with each step. To check a part, hold it against the
silhouette until the correct part is identified. In some cases extra
hardware has been supplied for parts that may be easy to lose.
The molded parts in the XXX-S are manufactured so that they
interlock. When screws are tightened to the point of being snug, the
parts are held firmly in place. For this reason it is very important that
screws not be overtightened in any of the plastic parts.
To ensure that parts are not lost during construction, it is recom-
mended that you work over a towel or mat to prevent parts from
rolling away.
1. Select an area for assembly that is away from the reach of small
children. Some parts in this kit are small and can be swallowed by
children, causing choking and possible internal injury.
2. The shock fluid and greases supplied should be kept out of
childrens' reach. They are not intended for human consumption!
3. Exercise care when using any hand tools, sharp instruments,
or power tools during construction.
4. Carefully read all manufacturers' warnings and cautions for
any glues, chemicals, or paints that may be used for assembly and
operating purposes. When you are using glues, chemicals, and paints
you should always wear eye protection and a mask.
