Turbine fuel is volatile and highly inflammable, and must be kept well away from open flames, excessive
heat and possible sources of sparks. Do not smoke anywhere near the area where fuel, fuel vapours or gas
may be expected.
Whenever you are operating a jet engine it is essential to keep a fully charged, correctly maintained C0
extinguisher - not a powder-based type - to hand at all times, together with a fire blanket. Flammable and
volatile objects and materials, such as fuel containers and gas bottles, must be kept well out of the range of the
turbine's hot exhaust area. Jet engines represent a serious fire hazard, especially in dry Summer conditions (dry
grass, stubble etc.).
Jet engines develop great heat and run at very high temperatures; even when stopped and left to cool down
for a considerable period, some parts can still be hotter than 80°C. If you are unsure, you can avoid painful
burns simply by not touching the engine.
Never touch any part of the turbine when it is running. Keep well clear of the area around the intake and the
exhaust.
At the end of each session remove all traces of fuel remaining in the engine and tank, and allow residual gas
to dissipate before placing the model in your car. Note that escaping compressed gas is extremely cold and
can produce freeze burns, so avoid skin contact. At all times keep well clear of open flames (cigarette
lighters, matches etc.) when filling or draining fuel tanks, as gas or liquid fuel may escape and cause a fire
hazard.
Every time you intend to operate your model check carefully that it and everything attached to it is in good
condition and undamaged. Do not fly the model unless you are confident that every part of it is in perfect
condition. Don't be tempted to compromise your safety standards. If you detect visible damage, or hear any
abnormal system noises which might indicate bearing wear or some other problem, cease operations
immediately and locate and eradicate the fault.
Never attempt to dismantle or repair the turbine yourself. If the engine is damaged or requires servicing,
send it to the Graupner Service Department, Henriettenstr. 94 - 96, D-73230 Kirchheim/Teck, Germany. All
work on model turbines requires specialist knowledge and special tools; don't try it yourself.
Any attempt to interfere with the engine invalidates the guarantee, and we will deny any claim under
guarantee and any claim for damages in that case.
Be sure to keep an adequate supply of fuel in the tank. Don't continue to fly the model until the tank is
drained dry.
Never fly directly over people or other creatures.
Never fly directly towards people.
Keep a safe distance from residential areas: at least 1.5 km "as the crow flies". The best solution is to join a
model flying club and use the approved flying site. Always keep well clear of high-voltage overhead cables.
Keep a safe distance from people, animals and other things and objects, especially kerosene and other
flammable materials and objects.
Take-off and landing strips should be kept free of people, animals and movable obstacles, particularly when
a model is using the strip.
Don't operate your model from residential areas, public roads, squares, school playgrounds, public parks or
sports grounds etc., and ensure that you always have the model under control.
