NOTES
Adjust the throttle linkage so that the engine 
stops  when  the  throttle  stick  and  trim  lever 
on  the  transmitter  are  fully  retarded. 
Alternatively, the engine may be stopped by 
cutting off the fuel supply. Never try to stop 
the engine physically.
Take  care  that  loose  clothing  (ties,  shirt 
sleeves,  scarves,  etc.)do  not  come  into 
contact with the propeller.Do not carry loose 
objects (such as pencils, screwdrivers, etc.) 
in  a  shirt  pocket  from  where  they  could  fall 
through the propeller arc.
Do  not  start  your  engine  in  an  area 
containing loose gravel or sand. 
The  propeller  may  throw  such  material  in 
your face and eyes and cause injury.
For  their  safety,  keep  all  onlookers 
(especially  small  children)  well  back  (at 
least  20  feet  or  6  meters)  when  preparing 
your  model  for  flight.  If  you  have  to  carry 
the  model  to  the  take-off  point  with  the 
engine  running,  be  especially  cautious. 
Keep  the  propeller  pointed  away  from  you 
and walk well clear of spectators.
Warning!  Immediately  after  a  glowplug-
ignition  engine  has  been  run  and  is  still 
warm, conditions  sometimes exist whereby 
it is  just possible for the engine to abruptly 
restart  if  the  propeller  is  casually  flipped 
over  compression  WITHOUT  the  glowplug 
battery  being  reconnected.  Remember  this 
if  you  wish  to  avoid  the  risk  of  a  painfully 
rapped knuckle!

When the engine is cold.
When the engine is hot.
With  this  engine,  the  piston 
will feel tight at the top of its 
stroke (TDC) when the engine 
is cold. This is normal. 
The  cylinder  bore  has  a 
slight  taper.  The  piston  and 
cylinder  are  designed  to 
achieve  a  perfect  running 
clearance  when  they  reach 
operating temperature.
