Safety Precautions and Warnings
As the user of this product, you are solely responsible for operating in a manner that does not
endanger yourself and others or result in damage to the product or property of others.
This model is controlled by a radio signal subject to interference from many sources outside
your control. This interference can cause momentary loss of control, so it is advisable to
always keep a safe distance in all directions around your model as this margin will help avoid
collisions or injury.
• Never operate your model with low transmitter batteries.
• Always operate your model in open spaces away from full-size vehicles, traffic and people.
• Never operate the model in the street or in populated areas for any reason.
• Carefully follow the directions and warnings for this and any optional support equipment
(chargers, rechargeable battery packs, etc.) you use.
• Keep all chemicals, small parts and anything electrical out of the reach of children.
WATER-RESISTANT VEHICLE
Metal parts, including the bearings, hinge pins, screws and nuts, as well as the con-
tacts in the electrical cables, will be susceptible to corrosion if additional maintenance
is not performed after running in wet conditions. To maximize the long-term perfor-
mance of your vehicle and to keep the warranty intact, the procedures described in
the "Wet Conditions Maintenance" section below must be performed regularly if you
choose to run in wet conditions. If you are not willing to perform the additional care and
maintenance required, then you should not operate the vehicle in those conditions.
CAUTION: Failure to exercise caution while using this product and com-
plying with the following precautions could result in product malfunction
and/or void the warranty.
General Precautions
Read through the wet conditions maintenance procedures and make sure that you
have all the tools you will need to properly maintain your vehicle.
Not all batteries can be used in wet conditions. Consult the battery manufacturer
before use. Caution should be taken when using Li-Po batteries in wet conditions.
Most transmitters are not water-resistant. Consult your transmitter's manual or the
manufacturer before operation.
Never operate your transmitter or vehicle where lightning may be present.
Do not operate your vehicle where it could come in contact with salt water (ocean
water or water on salt-covered roads), contaminated or polluted water. Salt water
is very conductive and highly corrosive, so use caution.
Even minimal water contact can reduce the life of your motor if it has not been
certified as water-resistant or waterproof. If the motor becomes excessively wet,
apply very light throttle until the water is mostly removed from the motor. Running a
wet motor at high speeds may rapidly damage the motor.
Driving in wet conditions can reduce the life of the motor. The additional resistance
of operating in water causes excess strain. Alter the gear ratio by using a smaller
pinion or larger spur gear. This will increase torque (and motor life) when running
in mud, deeper puddles, or any wet conditions that will increase the load on the
motor for an extended period of time.
• Never lick or place any portion of the model in your mouth as it could cause serious injury
or even death.
• Exercise caution when using tools and sharp instruments.
• Take care during maintenance as some parts may have sharp edges.
• Immediately after using your model, do NOT touch equipment such as the motor,
electronic speed control and battery, because they generate high temperatures. You may
burn yourself seriously touching them.
• Do not put fingers or any objects inside rotating and moving parts, as this may cause
damage or serious injury.
• Always turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver in the car. Always turn off
the receiver before turning your transmitter off.
• Keep the wheels of the model off the ground when checking the operation of the radio
equipment.
Wet Conditions Maintenance
Drain any water that has collected in the tires by spinning them at high speed. With
the body removed, place the vehicle upside down and pull full throttle for a few
short bursts until the water has been removed. See page 20.
CAUTION: Always keep hands, fingers, tools and any loose or hanging
objects away from rotating parts when performing the above drying
technique.
Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts. If you have an air compressor
or a can of compressed air, blow out any water that may be inside the recessed
connector housing.
Remove the tires/wheels from the vehicle and gently rinse the mud and dirt off with
a garden hose. Avoid rinsing the bearings and transmission.
NOTICE: Never use a pressure washer to clean your vehicle.
Use an air compressor or a can of compressed air to dry the vehicle and help
remove any water that may have gotten into small crevices or corners.
Spray the bearings, drive train, fasteners and other metal parts with a water-
displacing light oil. Do not spray the motor.
Let the vehicle air dry before you store it. Water (and oil) may continue to drip for
a few hours.
Increase the frequency of disassembly, inspection and lubrication of the following:
- Front and rear axle hub assembly bearings.
- All transmission cases, gears and differentials.
- Motor—clean with an aerosol motor cleaner and re-oil the bearings
with lightweight motor oil.
