Safety instructions and warnings for
Carl Goldberg Flite Boxes
Important: For your own safety and that of others,
observe the following instructions and warnings:
1. Never use the flite box for engine testing or while an engine is running. The cradles are designed
only for holding the model when building, repairing or storing.
2. Remember that model fuel is highly inflammable and explosive!! Therefore, treat it with utmost
care. Do not allow anything to come near the can that could set off a spark; do not smoke or bring
any flame near the fuel can. use care when carrying your Tote so as not to drop the unit with the can
on or in it or bang the can. If you store any battery (e.g. glow plug starter battery) or electrical device
in your Tote, make certain that no short circuit can occur; wrap the plug end in insulation and keep
terminals from shorting out.
3. Make certain any fuel can mounted on your Tote does not leak; inspect frequently for this. Make
certain it is sealed tight and that it does not come in contact with any battery, electrical device, tool,
or anything that might cause a spark or excessive heat.
4. If you mount any kind of power panel into your Tote, be certain to run its leads so as to avoid
shorting out, causing sparking or excessive heat; the same precautions must be used when mounting any electric fuel pump in your Tote.
5. At all times and in all cases--
Remember that you are carrying highly flammable fuel close to batteries, tools and other devices
that may cause sparks, short circuits or cause heat high enough to ignite the fuel.
Use good common sense. Keep all pump wiring or panel wiring you choose to install in good con-
dition and safely wired without crowding.
DON’T keep matches, lighters or anything in your Tote that might cause a spark or flame.
6. Keep your Tote out of the way of any running engine or its exhaust.
7. Store your Tote in a safe place-keeping children and others away from your Tote at all times. Do
not carry or store in the trunk of a car during hot weather.
8. From time to time inspect all fastener used to hold components on your finished Tote to be certain they are secure.
