EN WATER-RESISTANT VEHICLE WITH WATERPROOF ELECTRONICS Your new Horizon Hobby vehicle has been designed and built with a combination of waterproof and water-resistant components to allow you to operate the product in many “wet conditions,” including puddles, creeks, wet grass, snow and even rain. While the entire vehicle is highly water-resistant, it is not completely waterproof and your vehicle should NOT be treated like a submarine.

EN REMOVING THE VEHICLE BODY INSTALLING TRANSMITTER BATTERIES This transmitter requires 4 AA batteries. 1. Remove the battery cover from the transmitter. 2. Install the batteries as shown. 3. Install the battery cover. We recommend using only alkaline AA batteries in the transmitter, however, it is possible to use rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. CAUTION: If using rechargeable batteries, charge only rechargeable batteries.

EN GETTING STARTED 1. Power on the transmitter. 2. Connect the battery to the Electronic Speed Control (ESC) / Receiver unit and power on the vehicle. 3. Do a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle with the vehicle’s wheels off the ground. 4. Start driving slowly. If the wheels are not straight, adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter. 2.4GHZ DIGITAL RADIO SYSTEM TIP: Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a flat surface during use of the first battery charge.
EN OPERATION • ALWAYS turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver in the vehicle. Always turn off the receiver before turning your transmitter off. • ALWAYS operate your vehicle in a wide open area. Operating the vehicle in a small space or indoors can cause overheating at low speeds. Operating at low speed increases heat in the electronic speed control (ESC). Overheating can damage the vehicle and failure may result.
EN SETTING THE GEAR MESH The gear mesh has already been set at the factory. Setting the gear mesh is only necessary when changing motors or gears. You must remove the vehicle’s gear cover (A) to make this adjustment. Proper gear mesh (how the gear teeth meet) is important to the performance of the vehicle. When the gear mesh is too loose, the spur gear could be damaged by the pinion gear of the motor. If the mesh is too tight, speed could be limited and the motor and ESC will overheat.
EN MAINTENANCE Your ECX 1:18 Ruckus 4WD Monster Truck needs periodic maintenance and cleaning to keep performing at its optimal level. After each run: 1. Look over your vehicle to make sure there is no physical damage that can impede the operation of your vehicle, such as broken parts or tires that may have come unglued and need repair. 2. If there are no defects or broken parts that need to be repaired, completely wipe down the vehicle and body using paper towels or shop towels.
