WARNING: FLAMMABLE
To avoid serious injury, read instructions & NAR Safety Code included with engines. PREPARE YOUR ENGINE ONLY WHEN YOU ARE OUTSIDE AT THE LAUNCH SITE PREPARING TO LAUNCH! If vou do not use your prepared engine, remove the igniter before storing your engine.
PRECAUTIONS
PRE-LAUNCH CHECK For safety, never launch a damaged rocket. Check the rocket’s body, nose cone and fins. Also, check the motor mount, recovery system and launch lug(s). Repair any damage before launching the rocket.
FLYING YOUR ROCKET Choose a large field (1000 ft. [305 m] square) free of dry weeds and brown grass. The larger the launch area, the better your chance of recovering your rocket. Football fields and playgrounds are great. Launch only with little or no wind and good visibility. Always follow the National Association of Rocketry (NAR) SAFETY CODE. MISFIRES TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE CONTROLLER. WAIT ONE MINUTE BEFORE GOING NEAR THE ROCKET! Disconnect the igniter clips and remove the motor. Take the plug and igniter out of the motor. If the igniter has burned, it worked but did not ignite the motor because it was not touching the propellant inside the motor. Put a new igniter all the way inside the motor without bending it. Push the plug in place. Repeat the steps under Countdown and Launch.
