3. Insert the tube into the igniter port on the side. Slide the tube into the igniter port until the
tube comes to a firm stop.
4. Pull the tube exiting the guide hole, removing any slack in the loop formed. This prevents
the tube from coming loose from the igniter needle. Do not allow the tube to form a kink.
2.11.3. Tip Care. The two tips provided with the RFD are rugged, and will each last for up to
500 shots if properly cared for. Take care to keep mud and debris from getting on the igniter
needle. In some cases, the tip’s life can be extended by washing in soapy water and gently
rubbing the igniter needle with a non-metallic device such as a cotton swab.
2.11.4. Tip Replacement. It is recommended the tip be replaced at regular intervals to prevent
the likelihood of misfires resulting from worn tip electrodes. You may choose to hold one tip in
reserve as a replacement or spare at a location apart from your RFD. Then estimate your tip
usage, and schedule replacement when the tip’s use reaches your estimated 500 shots.
