- To move FORWARD push left lever forward
- To move BACKWARDS pull left lever backward
- To turn LEFT push both levers forward
- To turn RIGHT push left lever forward and right lever backward
- For LEFT SPINNING press the TURBO button and push right lever forward
- For RIGHT SPINNING press the TURBO button and push right lever backward
For optimal driving in a straight line, please try backing up first. It will help align the
car appropriately.
CAUTION: If Gut Wrencher gets stuck under an object, immediately release the
control levers on the transmitter, then retrieve the vehicle.
MASTER ALL THE MOVES!:
Here is a guide to help you master some of the tricks using different combinations
of moving levers and buttons. Watch out it will be INSANE!
1. TRACTION TWIST - This is the ultimate! Drive the vehicle forward and try to spin
it at the same time! Turn LEFT BACKWARDS by pushing the left lever backward and
pull the right lever FORWARD while hitting the TURBO button! This should give you
maximum power to allow Gut Wrencher to flip and move so you can master the
TRACTION TWIST. Try it doing the RIGHT FORWARD moves for another variation.

2. BODY SHAKIN TREMOR - Wiggle it from side to side in slow motion! While moving
the car FORWARD try to get the body of the car to move side to side by moving the
RIGHT lever back and forth. It takes a certain kind of precision but it SO COOL!

3. REVERSE ROTATOR - Watch it crank around and around! Hit the TURBO button
while moving the RIGHT lever up or down. This will give Gut Wrencher its
trademark spin action!

Now that you have mastered these tricks you need to come up your own! Good Luck!
HELPFUL HINTS:
- If the vehicle’s motor runs but does not respond to the
the vehicle and try again.
- If someone uses a CB nearby, it might interfere with control of Gut Wrencher. If
this happens, move the car and the transmitter away from the CB.
- You cannot operate your vehicle near devices with transmitters that use the same
frequency (27MHz, 49 MHz or 40 MHz) check the packaging to see which
frequency your Gut Wrencher uses.
- If Gut Wrencher moves slowly, and you have installed a recharged battery pack,
check the wheel mechanisms for lint, thread hair or dust.
- Never drive Gut Wrencher on a wet floor.
- Do not expose Gut Wrencher to extreme temperatures.
- Occasionally wipe the Gut Wrencher with a damp cloth to keep it looking new.
Do not use harsh chemicals to clean the vehicle.

2) Join together the plug from the battery pack to the receptacle plug
attached to the charger wires. Be sure to get a firm fit by having the ridge
snap into place with the clip.
3) Allow battery pack to be charged for 5 hours for a complete and full
charge. Additional charging will not improve your battery pack’s output, and
could eventually damage the battery pack. Do not charge a battery pack if
you notice it leaking or see corrosion on any part of the battery pack.
Note: Battery pack is not charged when new
4) After charging for 5 hrs, unplug charger and disconnect battery pack.
5) IMPORTANT: The first 3 times you charge the battery pack, charge for at least 5.5 hours
in order to condition the battery pack. And run battery pack until it is fully exhausted.
RUNNING TIME
Approximate running time is 25-30min. Battery pack may quit suddenly. Let battery
pack cool, then recharge after removing battery pack from vehicle.
When Gut Wrencher slows down, recharge the battery pack. When the battery
pack will no longer hold a charge replace it. A characteristic of Ni-MH batteries is a
loss of power quickly. A spare battery pack is therefore recommended for longer
play. If the battery pack is hot after operation please wait until it is cool before
recharging. Attempting to recharge a battery pack in this condition can reduce the
life of the battery pack and maybe cause damage later. The rechargeable battery
pack must be charged with the recommended battery charger. The battery
charger is not a toy. The battery charger is to be regularly examined for damage to
the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts, in the event of such damage; the
rechargeable batteries must not be used with this battery charger until the
damage has been repaired. Dispose of old battery packs properly.
RECOMMENDED BATTERIES:

CAUTION
1) Radio interference can be caused by the presence of other radio-controlled vehicles
operation on the same frequency as your vehicle.
2) Radio interference can be caused by the operation of your vehicle near high voltage
electrical wires, large steer reinforced concrete buildings and passing trucks with CB radios.
3) DO NOT operate your vehicle over wet surfaces. Water can damage the internal
electronic assemblies.
4) For best results, hold antenna up, not pointed down toward the R/C vehicle. Too far
away from the transmitter, your signal strength will become weak and the vehicle will
not function properly. The maximum range for the vehicle should be between 30 and
50 feet depending on conditions.
