or permanent damage to your boat. It is also important to run your boat responsibly. With proper care and maintenance, you will be able to proudly enjoy your HyperSport 48 for many years to come. Inspection Carefully remove the boat and radio transmitter from the box. Inspect the boat to make sure no damage is present. If you notice damage is present, please contact the hobby shop where you purchased it. When operating the boat, stay clear of people, full-scale boats, stationary objects and wildlife.
Additional Required Items Section 1: Building the Boat Stand Although the HyperSport™ 48 comes fully assembled and ready for action, you will need a few additional items in order to run your boat. You will need the following: 1. There are 4 plywood boat stand pieces. The 2 short plywood pieces are the ends of the boat stand. 2. Secure the 2 long plywood pieces of the interlocking boat stand to one end of the short plywood pieces. Repeat with the remaining short plywood pieces.
6. Turn the transmitter and the receiver switch off. To keep the boat from receiving stray signals, the transmitter should be turned on first, followed by the receiver. Likewise, the receiver should be turned off first, then the transmitter. Section 3: Installing the Radio System Batteries Receiver Batteries 1. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench to remove the eight 2.5mm hex head screws that secure the radio box cover. 2.
Section 5: Propeller Balancing Section 7: Checking the Radio System For optimum performance, propeller balancing can add several mph to top speed and reduce vibration. There are several different propeller balancing tools available. Read the instructions that accompany the propeller balancing tool as removing material from the correct part of the propeller is crucial. Contact a local hobby retail store for assistance.
Pull-starting the Engine Section 8: Starting the Engine With an assistant holding the boat to the boat stand and bracing the engine with one hand, pull the starting cord briskly several times. Once the engine fires (begins to start), partially open the choke. Prolonged choking will flood the engine with fuel until the engine warms up. See Section 12: Troubleshooting Guide to correct the flooding condition. It may be necessary to trim the throttle open slightly during initial starting.
Section 10: Handling Adjustments Section 11: Cooling System Water-Cooled Cylinder Head and Muffler Cooling Propeller Trim Angle You may adjust the propeller strut to add up or down trim to the propeller by loosening the propeller strut bolt and sliding the propeller strut up to increase top-end speed (but steering response will decrease and cavitation may occur if excessively adjusted). Lowering the trim angle will increase handling performance (but may cause the boat to over-steer and decrease speed).
Section 13: Hull Care Section 14: Maintenance The hull of the HyperSport™ 48 is finished using the highest quality paints and the most advanced painting methods available. The base coat/clear coat technique delivers an amazing shine that is as durable as it is beautiful. To keep your HyperSport 48 looking new, you should apply a wax coating as used on automotive finishes to prevent oxidation and to further protect against damage caused by fuel and other harmful chemicals.
Section 15: HyperSport 48 Replacement Parts Section 16: Flex Shaft Lubrication 1. Use two 16mm wrenches to loosen the flex shaft collet. In the event that you need to purchase replacement parts for your engine or the HyperSport 48, please see your local hobby store. You can also purchase them from Horizon Hobby by calling 1-800-338-4639 or shop online @ www.horizonhobby.
4. Clean all residue off of the flex shaft with a de-greasing cleaner and wipe dry. Section 17: Appendix Photo 1 Exhaust Port Cooling Line Fuel Tank Engine 5. Liberally apply marine grease (PRB0110) to the flex shaft. Cooling Line Carburetor Kill Switch Photo 2 Cooling Line Drain Plug 6. Install in reverse order, being sure to leave a 1–2mm gap between the drive dog and the rear of the propeller strut.
