Instructions for Use

NOTES
This engine was designed for model
aircraft. Do not attempt to use it for any
other purpose.
Mount the engine in your model securely,
following the manufacturers' recommenda-
tions, using appropriate screws and lock-
nuts.
Be sure to use the silencer (muffler)
supplied with the engine. Frequent
exposure to an open exhaust may
eventually impair your hearing.
Such noise is also likely to cause
annoyance to others over a wide area.
Install a top-quality propeller of the
diameter and pitch specified for the engine
and aircraft. Locate the propeller on the
shaft so that the curved face of the blades
faces forward-i.e. in the direction of flight.
Firmly tighten the propeller nut, using the
correct size wrench.
If you remove the glowplug from the engine
and check its condition by connecting the
battery leads to it, do not hold the plug with
bare fingers.Use an appropriate tool or a
folded piece of cloth.

NOTES
Always check the tightness of the propeller
nut and retighten it, if necessary, before
restarting the engine. Also, check the
tightness of all the screws and nuts before
restarting the engine.
If you install a spinner, make sure that it is
a precision made product and that the
slots for the propeller blades do not cut into
the blade roots and weaken them.
Preferably, use an electric starter. The
wearing of safety glasses is also strongly
recommended.
Discard any propeller which has become
split, cracked, nicked or otherwise rendered
unsafe. Never attempt to repair such a
propeller: destroy it. Do not modify a propeller
in any way, unless you are highly experienced
in tuning propellers for specialized
competition work such as pylon-racing.
Take care that the glow plug clip or battery
leads do not come into contact with the
propeller. Also check the linkage to the
throttle arm. A disconnected linkage could
also foul the propeller.
After starting the engine, carry out any
needle-valve readjustments from a safe
position behind the rotating propeller. Stop
the engine before attempting to make other
adjustments to the carburetor.
