General Guidelines

It is important that you read and follow this
instruction manual, along with the radio system
manual before you run this exciting boat. Failure
to read and understand the manual could result
is personal injury, property damage or permanent
damage to your boat. It is also important to run
your boat responsibly. With proper care and
maintenance, you will be able to proudly enjoy your
ShockWave 26 for many years to come.

When operating the boat, stay clear of people,
full-scale boats, stationary objects and wildlife. It
is preferable to operate the ShockWave 26 in low
wake, low wind conditions and in areas free of
people, wildlife and objects.

Before you operate your model, make sure that
your frequency is clear. If someone is operating
on the same frequency, both models could go out
of control, possibly causing damage to the models
or to others. Check all of the hardware, and the
propeller for damage and loose screws before and
after each run.

If at any time while operating your model you
sense any abnormal function, end your operation
immediately. Do not operate your boat again until
you are certain the problem has been corrected.

Always stay clear of the propeller.
