Use the same technique to adjust the rear ride height. Again,

refer to the included setup sheet. Every driver likes a little

different feel so you should try small ride height adjustment

to obtain the feel you like. This should be the last adjustments

you make after everything else is dialed in. Note: Do not

use ride height adjustments as a substitute for a spring rate

change. If your 810 needs a softer or firmer spring, change the

spring. Do not think that simply moving the shock nuts will

change the spring stiffness as it will NOT!

Wheels and Tires

The tires come pre-mounted with the vehicle and should

be checked to make certain they stay glued to the wheels.

The wheel spinning speeds this vehicle is capable of tend to

pull the rubber tire away from the rim. When a tire or tires

come loose from the rim, you will notice the vehicle is hard to

control.
Tip the vehicle on its side and using both hands to hold one

wheel at a time, use your thumb to press the tire away from

the rim. If you see a tire pull away from the rim use Losi Tire

Glue (LOSA7880 thick or LOSA7881 thin) to reglue. It only

takes a small drop of glue generally. Be careful—this is CA-

type glue and you do not want to glue your fingers to the

wheel and tire.

Use safety goggles when gluing tires.
Check the mounting of the tire periodically to ensure proper

performance and handling.

Troubleshooting your 810

Many questions are the result of simple user errors or minor

adjustments which are easily addressed. If after reading

below you cannot resolve your problem, then please contact

the appropriate product support office.

Radio system does not work properly:

If the power on your transmitter is not turning on, first check

to make sure the batteries are installed correctly. If the battery

power is too low, replace the four AA dry cells. When you

turn on the vehicle, if the servos fail to move, replace the four

AA dry cells in the vehicle. If the radio still does not function

you may need to rebind the radio. Refer to the step-by-step

instructions elsewhere in this manual to bind your system.

Short radio range:

If the radio range appears short, make sure the batteries are

all fully charged and/or are in good condition.

Steering or Throttle servo does not work:

Check all wires, radio system, battery connectors, and the

battery pack. Replace the servo if it remains unresponsive.

Engine will not start:

1. Remove and check the glow plug.

2. Make sure there is fuel in the tank.

3. Check the fuel line for holes or cuts.

4. Note that the fuel is getting up to the carburetor. If not

wait for the exhaust pipe to cool, put your finger over

the exhaust tip, and turn the engine over watching

for the fuel to go up the fuel line until it gets to the

carburetor. Do not continue to turn the engine over

with your finger over the exhaust tip after the fuel has

reached the carburetor.

5. If the fuel has been left open or is over 6 months old,

try replacing the fuel including that in the fuel line.
