Starting a Cold Engine

After all the wire connections have been correctly set up, you are ready to start your engine. Before doing so,
ensure the low and high speed mixture needles are adjusted to the factory recommendation from your engine
manufacturer. Then you will need to close the choke on your carburetor and press the primer bulb to pump the
gas up from the tank. Once you see the gas flowing into the carburetor, press on the power switch for no more
than 3 seconds. If you then hear the engine starting to fire, open the choke and press the power switch one
more time – your engine should start.
When starting a warm engine, you don’t need to close the choke; just simply press on the power switch for
less than 3 seconds and the engine will start.

Why operate the starter for no more than 3 seconds each time?

This is because the peak electric current from the battery to the motor is achieved in those first few
seconds; after that the peak power of the motor reduces. If the engine has not started in this time (it
usually does if properly tuned), pause for a few seconds before trying again – for up to another
three seconds. That pause allows the battery to again deliver its maximum current for the motor to
achieve its highest performance. If the engine is warm, you will need only one second to start it.

Trouble Shooting

* If gas has been flowing into the engine yet it does not start, it might have flooded with too much gas
inside. If this happens, remove the spark plug and hold a rag over the spark plug hole. Turn on the starter
for 5 to10 seconds to pump out the extra gas from inside of the cylinder. Then re-install the spark plug
and try again.

* Sometime when you connect the battery to R-One device and turn on the switch on R-One, the TS760A
starter will start to run right away, even thought you haven't ready to turn on the switch on third channel
of the transmitter.
This happening is because every time when you turn on your transmitter, the third channel switch is
always on "left foward" position which is the "on" position for your starter kit, that is why, as soon as you
connect the battery to R-One, the electric motor starts to run.
Solution: Before you connect the LIPO battery to R-one, turn on your transmitter first, and press on the
third channel switch once that will switch it to "right forward" which is "off" position for the starter kit,
then, connect the LIPO battery to R-One, this will solve the issue.
