Operating your engineBREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONSAll <strong>MOKI</strong> engines have hard chrome cylinders and therefore require extended break-in periods.The minimum time is 30 minutes, with best results at 1 hour or more. Make sure that you do notrun the engine with a lean mixture for the first 15-20 minutes. After that, you can lean it outbriefly and see if it will hold the setting without sagging. When the engine will hold a lean settingwithout slowing, it can be considered to be broken-in.The running in of model engines should take place on a block or test stand. If a stand is notavailable, the testing can be done in the model, however you must ensure the model is firmly heldin place.The model engine should be fixed strongly and securely to the test stand or installed into themodel.The usual break in period of the engine is a minimum of 30 minutes, during which time theadequate cooling of the engine should be provided. (After every 5 to 10 minutes of running stopthe engine and allow to cool before starting again )It is absolutely necessary that during the first 15 to 20 minutes of running the engine, that it havea rich fuel mixture. The fuel mixture should be so rich that the engine should reach about 50 to60% of its maximum number of revolution at full throttle.For running in and operation, only fuel of good (commercial) quality should be used. Fuel ofuncertain origin may damage the engine.For the running in period, a fuel of the following composition is recommended: 20% lubricantComprising – 15% Cool Power Blue Oil, plus 5% Cool Power Castor oil (eg. Fun Power Pre-mix) +80% methanol fuel for the break in period. Following the running in, Cool Power syntheticBlue oil – straight or with some Castor oil for a total of 18 % - 20% lubricant may be used . 5 to10% nitromethane should also be added after the run in period.It is important that you use the correct size and pitch of propeller on your <strong>MOKI</strong> engine. See thefollowing table and get the recommendation of the prop manufacturer, or ask your model dealer.If your engine is over a .40 size, use only wood ,fiberglass or carbon propellers - not plastic. Besure to tighten the prop nut securely and never try to start a <strong>MOKI</strong> engine by hand.Engine Displacement ccmCu.inCcmSuggested dimensionsof the propeller *135 22,5 16 x 6 16 x 8180 30 18 x 8 20 x 6210 35 18 x 8 20 x 7360 60 24 x 8 24 x 10
