This document provides safety instructions and warnings that must be read before operating the engine, as well as instructions on familiarizing oneself with the engine controls and features. The document also provides guidance on engine installation, starting, running-in, adjustment, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
This manual covers the O.S. MAX-12TZ(P) Series, which includes two versions: the MAX-12TZ(P)-T3 (3 port version with 11H carburetor) and the MAX-12TZ(P)-T5 (5 port version with 11H(B) carburetor). These rear exhaust engines are designed expressly for 1/10 class R/C touring cars and stadium trucks, offering enormous torque from low RPMs.
| Intended Application | 1/10 class R/C touring cars and stadium trucks |
|---|---|
| Fuel Type | Model engine fuel with 10-30% nitromethane |
Never operate your engine in an enclosed space because model engines exhaust deadly carbon-monoxide; run the engine only in an open area.
Over-priming can cause a hydraulic lock and damage the engine on application of the electric starter.
