MOTOR MAINTENANCE
XRAY 370 Super Size motor is a high-performance, sealed, non-rebuildable motor.
Keep the motor clean from debris by brushing it off or using compressed air.
Do not attempt to open the motor; this will render the motor inoperable.
Motor performance will stay high for a long time. However, when performance drops significantly, replace the motor.
This product is not suitable for children except under the direct supervision of an adult.
Never leave your model unattended with the battery connected.
Be sure that your operating frequency is clear before turning on or running your model, and never share the same frequency with somebody else at
the same time. Ensure that others are aware of the operating frequency you are using and when you are using it.
Always turn on your transmitter before you turn on the ESC or connect the battery pack. Always turn off the ESC or disconnect the battery pack before
turning off your transmitter.
Immediately after using your model, do NOT touch the model’s electronic equipment, as they may be hot.
When you connect the battery and turn on the electronics, make sure your car is physically prevented from moving or getting away from you and
causing damage. Technical faults of mechanical or electrical nature may cause the motor to burst into life unexpectedly, which can cause serious
damage or injury.
All cables and connectors must be effectively insulated. Short circuits can ruin your ESC, servo, or battery pack.
