Model engines generate considerable heat.
Do not touch any part of your engine until
it has cooled. Contact with the muffler
(silencer), cylinder head or exhaust header
pipe, in particular, may result in a serious
burn. Keep your hands and face away from
exhaust gas or you will suffer a burn.

Be sure to use a pressurized fuel system by
connecting the muffler pressure nipple to the
vent-pipe of the fuel tank.

FUEL TANK & LINES

Make sure that the tank is well rinsed out
with methanol or glow fuel before installation
and that the pickup weight is well clear of
the bottom of the tank when held vertically.

For plumbing, use heavy duty silicone tube
of 2mm inner dia and 5mm outer dia.

The suggested fuel tank size is 220cc. This
will give approximately 13-14 minutes
running time when some part-throttle
operation is included.

Locate the fuel tank so that the center line of
the tank is approx. 10mm below the center
line of the needle-valve.

Locate the fuel tank as close to the
engine as possible to minimize fuel
level head pressure variation.

Breather Nipple

To be drawn outside the model.
(Do not block the outlet.)
