Model engine fuel is poisonous. Do not
allow it to come into contact with the
eyes or mouth. Always store it in a
clearly marked container and out of the
reach of children.

Model engine fuel is also highly flam-
mable. Keep it away from open flame,
excessive heat, sources of sparks, or
anything else which might ignite it.
Do not smoke, or allow anyone else to
smoke, near to it.

Reminder!

PROPELLERS

Suggested propeller sizes are listed on page 15. The
suitability of the prop depends on the size and weight
of the model and type of flying. Determine the best
size and type after the engine has been run in. Check
the balance of the propeller before fitting it to the
engine. Unbalanced propellers cause vibration and
loss of power. Wooden propellers are to be preferred.
Some nylon propellers are not strong enough to
withstand the high power output of these engines
and a thrown blade can be very dangerous.

For Scale

Never touch, or allow any object to come
into contact with, the rotating propeller and
do not crouch over the engine when it is
running.

Reminder!
