Safety
Precautions
IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER
• Your model is not intended for use on public roads or congested areas where its
operation can conflict with or disrupt pedestrian or vehicular trac.
• Never, under any circumstances, operate the model in crowds of people. Your model
could cause injury if allowed to collide with anyone.
• Because your model is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio interference from many
sources that are beyond your control. Since radio interference can cause momentary
losses of radio control, always allow a safety margin in all directions around the model in
order to prevent collisions.
• The motor, battery, and electronic speed control can become hot during use. Be careful
to avoid getting burned.
• Don’t operate your model at night, or anytime your line of sight to the model may be
obstructed or impaired in any way.
• Most importantly, use good common sense at all times.
• Disconnect the Battery: Always disconnect the battery from the vehicle when not in
use.
• Insulate the Wires: Always insulate exposed wiring with heat shrink tubing to prevent
short circuits.
• 2S Li-Ion: The vehicle can accept a maximum input voltage of 7.4 volts (2s Li-Ion).
Always adhere to the minimum and maximum limitations.
• Transmitter on First: Switch on your transmitter first before switching on the speed
control to prevent runaways and erratic performance.
• Don’t Get Burned: The motor can become extremely hot during use, so be careful not
to touch them until they cool. Supply adequate airflow for cooling.
• Use the Factory-Installed Connectors: Do not change the battery and motor
connectors. Improper wiring can cause fire or damage to the vehicle.

parts before and after using your vehicle and replace before failure. All the parts of this vehicle are
available to be purchased separately, or as small sets, to allow you to get years of use from your
Dump Truck. The bodyshell is not just for looks, it is also designed to protect vital areas of the
running gear and electronics from damage.
LAEGENDARY DOES NOT operate a new for old warranty once the product has been used.
Once the product has been used we oer a component level warranty and will replace the defective
component(s) at our discretion.
Warranty is only valid if the items were purchased directly from LAEGENDARY (purchases from
third party sellers will not be covered under the warranty)

- All other parts not mentioned above, such as but not limited to: Servo, Dierential, Shocks, Axels
Arms, Wheels, etc
- Component failure or premature wear as a result of crash damage
- Lack of maintenance, improper use or abuse
- Water damage or problems resulting from water intake
- Bodyshells once they have been painted and/or used
