Installation
• Iftheintendtousetheproductasreplacementforanexistingspeedcontrol,checkrstthattheengineis
suitableforthespeedcontrol.Thenremovetheoldspeedcontrollerfromyourmodel.
• Nowinstallthespeedcontrollerunitintothemodelvehicle.Choosealocationwhichisasfaraspossible
fromthereceiver.Thecontrolunitshouldalsonotbedirectlynexttothemotor.
• Connectthetwocablesofthespeedcontrollerwiththemotorcables;payattentiontoanycolourcoding.
Thisensuresthatthemotorwillmoveforward/backwardasdenedbythespeedcontrol.
Ifyoulaterdiscoverthatthemotor’sdirectionofrotationofthemotoriswrong(dependingon
thedriveofthevehicle),eitherswapthetwomotorcablesoractivatethereversesettingonyour

Getting Started with the Speed Controller
Attention, be careful!
Placethemodelvehiclesothedrivewheels(incaseofboats,the propellers)do notmake
contactwiththegroundorotherobjects.Donottouchthedrivemechanism,donotblockit!Risk
ofinjury!
Ifthe trimming was adjusted on the transmitter,after switching onthespeedcontrollercan
directlydeterminethestartingofthemotor!
• Firstly,turnoffthespeedcontroller’son/offswitch(switchposition"OFF").Thencheckthesettingofjump-
ers,andcorrectitifnecessary.
• Turnonthetransmitterandcheckafterwardsthetransmitter’sbatterystatus.
• Inserttherechargeabledrivebatteryintothevehicleandconnectittothespeedcontrol.
Attention!
Youshouldpayattentiontothecorrectpolarityofthespeedcontroller'sconnectioncable:Red=
Plus(+)andBlack=Minus(-).Ifincorrectlyconnected,thespeedcontrollerandtherecharge-
abledrivebatterycanbedestroyed!Dangerofexplosion/burns!
• Movethetrimmingforsteeringanddrivingtothecentralpositionandcheckiftheoperatingleverforthe
drivefunctionisintheneutral/centralposition.
• Now,turnonthespeedcontroller(switchposition"ON").
• Thespeedcontrollernowstoresthepositionoftheneutralposition(donotmovethethrottleleveronthe
transmitterwhilestillinthecentral/neutralposition!).Themotorgeneratesdifferenttypesofbeeps(these
willbeproducedbytheactuationofthemotorbythespeedcontroller).Thespeedcontrollerisnowready

Speed Controller Function Test
Themodel’smotor/drivemustnotrotatewhilethedriving/brakingfunction’soperatingleveronthetransmitter
isinthecentreposition(neutralposition).
Ifyoumovethedrivecontrollevertowardsforwardtravel(pulltothehandle),thevehicle(car/boatmodel)
shouldmoveforward.
Thenmovethecontrolleverfromtheforwarddrivepositiontothecentrepositionandwaitabit.Themotor
shouldstopnow.
Toreversethevehicle,movethedrivecontrollevertowardreversetravel(pushitawayfromthehandle).The
vehicle(car/boatmodel)shouldnowmovebackwards.
Ifthevehiclemovescontrarytothefunctiondescribedabove,switchoffthespeedcontroller
andswapthetwomotorcablesoractivatethereversesettingforthedrivingfunctiononthe
transmitter.
TheredLEDofthespeedcontrollerisoffintheneutralposition;theLEDasheswhendrivingforwards/
backwards.
In"Crawler"operatingmode,theLEDissteadylitif"fullthrottleforward/reverse"isselected.In"Boat"mode,
theLEDissteadylitonlyif"Fullthrottleforward"isselected.
Ending the Operation
• Bringthethrottle/brakelevertotheneutralpositionandletthevehiclerollout(ifnecessary,correctaccord-
inglythetransmitter'strimmingcontrol,sothatthemotorstops).
• Switchoffthecontrolunit.
• Alwaysdisconnecttherechargeabledrivebatteryfromthespeedcontroller.
• Onlynowdoyouturnoffthetransmitter.
Excess temperature protection
Whenthespeedcontrolleristoohot(>100°C),themotorwillturnoff.Insuchacase,theLEDwillsignalthis
withashing.Ifthespeedcontrollerscoolsunderabout+80°C,itisagainreadytobeused.
Fail-Safe Function
