Working instruction for
FG F260 engines
Our 1:5 On-Road and 1:6 Truck models we deliver with standard air filter including factory-oiled
filter insert. This filter is sufficient for the use on tracks with low formation of dust. As a precaution
we recommend to change or rather clean the foam filter inserts more often and soak them
afterwards again completely with filter oil 6441. According to the higher formation of dust we
standard equipped our 1:6 Off-Road models with the FG Off-Road inlet air filter with oiled
filter insert. Corresponding to the formation of dust you also have to clean the filter inserts of
these Off-Road filters, check them on fissures and soak them in filter oil 6441, too.
Attention! The K & N air filter oil is not suitable for foam filters. Further inlet slencers, filter oils
a.s.o. for FG models and other brands you will find in our FG main catalog.
1. Initial operation of the engine
Always check if the air filter and also the air filter adapter are seated
correct and firm before starting the engine. The basic adjustment of
the engine is preset by the factory. At high formation of dust we
recommend to seal the connection between carburetor, air
adapter and air filter additionally with FG Silicone 6503. The petroil
lubrication should be 1:25 which means a share of 4 % oil. Suitable is
Super or Superplus petrol. We recommend our FG Panolin
Racing Oil for an optimal lubrication, Item N°. 08559.
2. Starting the cold engine
Close the carburetor throttle valve or rather bring it into neutral gear.
Now shut the choke flap at the carburetor. Press the primer pump at
the carburetor until the pump is full with fuel. Slowly pull the rope
starter until you feel the first resistance, then pull strongly until the engine
ignites audible. Normally the engine will stop again after the first ignition.
Now open the choke flap and pull the rope starter once again until the
engine runs. Never run the cold engine at full-load or with high speed
ranges, rather warm-up the engine for approx. 3-4 minutes at a low
speed range. We can not grant a guarantee for damages.
3. Starting the warm engine
Leave the choke clap open, press the primer pump and actuate the
rope starter. To turn the engine off, press the ignition switch until the
engine stops.
4. Carburetor adjustment
The adjustment of the carburetor is preset by the factory adequate to
the local conditions. Depending on air filter, exhaust silencer and operating
conditions a correction may be necessary.
Drive the engine until it has reached its working temperature. If the engine
decelerates a little during the acceleration, then it runs too lean. In this
case open the No-load adjusting screw L anticlockwise. If the engine
revs up only slowly stammering and under clouds of smoke, then the
engine probably runs with an overrich mixture. In that case you should
turn the No-load adjusting screw L clockwise.
In order to adjust the maximum range of speed, lift the rear wheels
and drive the warm engine shortly at full speed. Now you can turn the
Full-load adjusting screw H to the left (lean mixture) or to the right
(overrich mixture).
ATTENTION! Don't drive the engine in a no-load condition too long at
the maximum speed range. Mostly the neutral gear adjusting screw
has to be regulated once again if it was necessary to adjust the engine
at the No-load adjusting screw L or Full-load adjusting
screw H.
5. Basic adjustment of the carburetor
The declared values are reference values. Mostly the carburetor has
to be readjusted. If you have the feeling that the No-load adjusting
screw L or the Full-load adjusting screw H is completely misadjusted,
then close both adjusting screws L + H carefully. Afterwards open the
adjusting screws anticlockwise corresponding to the following table.

During the first two tank fillings you should avoid maximum peed
ranges in no-load condition as well as longer full-speed drives on
parking places. The first thing we recommend to check is the
effective radius of your radio control system with running engine.
Never operate the engine in closed rooms without sufficient
ventilation. Further safety instructions are enclosed with the engines.
