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.

• 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.

WATER-RESISTANT VEHICLE WITH WATERPROOF ELECTRONICS

Your new Horizon Hobby vehicle has been designed and built with a combination of waterproof and water-resistant components to allow you to operate the product in many “wet conditions,” including puddles, creeks, wet grass, snow and even rain.

While the entire vehicle is highly water-resistant, it is not completely waterproof and your vehicle should NOT be treated like a submarine. The various electronic components used in the vehicle, such as the Electronic Speed Control (ESC) and servo(s) are waterproof, however, most of the mechanical components are water-resistant and should not be submerged.

Metal parts, including the bearings, hinge pins, screws and nuts, as well as the contacts 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 performance 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 complying 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. Do not use Li-Po batteries in wet conditions.

• The included transmitter is not waterproof or water-resistant. If using a different transmitter than the one included, 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.

Wet Conditions Maintenance

• 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.

BINDING

The included transmitter and receiver are bound at the factory. If you need to rebind, follow the instructions below.

1. Power ON the receiver. The receiver LED ﬂ ashes slowly.

2. Insert the bind plug into the receiver’s binding pins.

The receiver LED flashes rapidly.

3. Power ON the transmitter.

4. The receiver LED turns solid when binding is successful.

Remove the bind plug.

You must rebind when binding the receiver to a different transmitter.

NOTICE: Do not attempt to bind the transmitter and receiver if there are other compatible transmitters in bind mode within 400 feet. Doing so may result in unexpected binding.

1. Power on the transmitter.

GETTING STARTED

2. Power on the ESC.

3. Perform a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle with

the vehicle’s wheels off the ground.

4. Start driving slowly, and, if the vehicle does not go straight, adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter.

IMPORTANT: Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a ﬂ at surface during use of the ﬁ rst battery charge. Properly seating the motor brushes will increase the life and performance of the motor.

1/10 2WD Electric Monster Truck

Page 7

OPERATION

• ALWAYS turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver in the vehicle. Always power off the receiver before turning your transmitter off.

• ALWAYS operate your vehicle in a wide open area. Operating the vehicle in a small space or indoors can cause overheating at low speeds. Operating at low speed increases heat in the electronic speed control (ESC). Overheating can damage the vehicle and failure may result.

WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED

1. Power off the ESC. 2. Disconnect the battery.

3. Power off the transmitter.

4. Remove the battery from the vehicle.

MOTOR CARE

• Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a flat surface during use of the first battery charge. Failing to do so can greatly reduce

motor performance and functional life.

• Prolong motor life by preventing overheating conditions. Undue motor wear results from frequent turns, stops and starts, pushing objects, driving in deep water and tall grass, and driving continuously up hill.

Instruction Manual

5. Recharge the battery.

Allow the motor to cool completely before running the vehicle.

• Over-temperature protection is installed on the ESC to prevent circuit damage, but cannot protect the motor from driving against heavy resistance.

MAINTENANCE

SETTING THE GEAR MESH

The gear mesh has already been set at the factory. Setting the gear mesh is only necessary when changing motors or gears.

You must remove the vehicle’s gear cover (A) to make this adjustment.

Proper gear mesh (how the gear teeth meet) is important to the performance of the vehicle. When the gear mesh is too loose, the spur gear could be damaged by the pinion gear of the motor. If the mesh is too tight, speed could be limited and the motor and ESC will overheat. Set the gear mesh by following these simple steps:

1. Loosen the 2 motor screws (B).

2. Put a small piece of paper (C) between the pinion and spur gears.

3. Push the gears together while tightening the motor screws.

SHOCK CLEANING

Oil-ﬁ lled shocks require regular maintenance because the oil breaks down or gets dirty. Perform this maintenance after every 3–5 hours of use, depending on the conditions.

• Remove the shock from the vehicle.

• Remove the cap from the shock body and dispose of fluid.

• Disassemble the shock. Clean thoroughly with a plastic- and electronicsafe degreaser (DYNE50001). Dry parts before assembly.

• Re-assemble the shock and refill the shock body with silicone fluid (30 weight recommended).

• Slowly move the shaft and piston up and down to remove air bubbles.

• Move the piston to the midway point of the body and install the cap.

• Wipe off any overflowing fluid.

• When properly filled, the piston should rebound about 3/8 in (9.5mm) after being pushed in fully.

• Re-install the shock on the vehicle.

RIDE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Ride height is an adjustment that affects the way the vehicle jumps, turns and goes over bumps. Drop one end of the vehicle from approximately 6 inches (152 mm) in height onto a ﬂ at surface. After the vehicle settles, verify the front arms are equal and parallel to the ﬂ at surface. Do the same with the rear to make sure both arms are parallel with the ﬂ at surface.

Lowering the front ride height increases steering, but decreases traction. Lowering the rear ride height increases traction, but decreases steering.
