WELCOME

XX-4

OWNER!

Thank

you for selecting Team Losi and the XX-4 as your new off-road racing vehicle.

As

you will soon see,

we

have

made every effort

to

produce a kit that

is

not only the most competitive,

but

easy to build and maintain as well.

The

simple bag-by-bag assembly sequence and unmatched easy-

to

-

fo

ll

ow instructions, combined with T

ea

m Losi's famous

qualit

y-

fitting parts, should make building your XX

-4

an

enjoyable project.

Before you open a bag

or

start any assembly, please take a

few

moments

to

read completely

thr

ou

gh

the following

instructions. This will familiarize yourself with

not

only the various parts,

but

the tools you

will

need

as well.

Once

again, thank you for choosing Team Losi.

Good luck and good racing!

KIT/MANUAL ORGANIZATION

Th

e XX-4

is

composed

of

different bags marked A through H.

Each bagcontains all

of

the parts necessary to completea particu-

larsection

of

the

XX

-4 car. Some ofthese bags have subassembly

bags within the

m.

It is essential that you open only one bag

at

a

time and

foHow

the correct assembly sequence, otherwi

se

you

may face difficulties in finding the correct part. It

is

helpful to

re

ad

through the instructions for

an

entire bag priorto beginning

assembl

y.

Key numbers (in parenthesis) have been assigned to

each part

an

d remain the same throughout the manual. In some

illustrations, parts which havealready been installed are

not

shown

so that the currentsteps can be illustrated more clearly.

For your convenience,

an

actual size hardware identification

guide

is

included with each step.

To

check a part, hold it against

the silhouette until the correct part

is

identified. In some cases

extra hardware has been supplied for

par

~ that may be easy to

lose.

The

molded parts in the

:XX

-4 are manufactured to demand-

ing tolerances. When screws are tightened to the point of being

snug, the parts are held firmly in place. For this reason it

is

very

important that screws

not

be overtightened in any

of

the plastic

parts.

To

insure that parts are not lost during construction, it

is

rec-

ommended that you work over a towel.

or

mat

to prevent parts

from rolling away.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES

I.

Select an area for assembly that

is

away from the reach

of

small childre

n.

The

parts

in

the

kit

are

smalland

can

be

swallowed

by

children,

causing

choking

and

possible

internal

injury.

2.

The

shock fluid

and

greases suppliedshould bekeptout

of

children's reach.

They

are

not

intended

for

human

consumption!

3.

Exercise

care

when using

any

hand tools, sharp instruments,

or

power tools during construction.

4.

Carefully

read

all

manufacturer's

warnings

and

cautions

for any

glues, chemicals,

or

paints that may be used for assembly and

operating purposes.

TOOLS REQUIRED

Team Losi has supplied all necessary Allen wrenches

and

a special wrench that

is

needed for assembly and adjustments.

The

follow-

ingcommon tools

will

also berequired: Needle-nose pliers, regular pliers, hobby knife, scissors

or

otherbodycutting

/t

rimming tools,

and a soldering iron may be necessary for radio installation.

3/

16

", 1/4", and 3/8"

nut

drivers are optional.

RADIO

/EL

ECTRICAL

A suggested radio layout

is

provided in this manual. Your high-performance

RIC

center should be consulted regarding spec

ifics

on

radio/electrical equipment.

HARDWARE IDENTIFICATION

When in question, use the hardware identification guide

in

each step. For screws, the prefix number designates the screw size

and

number ofthreads

per

inch (i.e. 4-40

is

#4

screw with 40 threads

per

inch).

The

second number

or

fraction designates the length ofthe

screw. For cap-head screws, this

number

refers to the length ofthe threaded portion

of

the screw. For flat-head screws, this number

refers to the overall length

of

the screw. Bearings

and

bushings are referenced by the inside diameter x outside diameter. Shafts and

pins are diameter x length. Washers are described by inside diameter or the screw size that will pass through the inside diameter.

E-clips are sized by the shaft diameter that they attach to.

MOTORS AND GEARING

Th

e XX-4 includes an

84

-tooth, 48-pitch spur gear.

The

overall internal drive ratio

of

the XX-4 is 2.3:

I.

Th

e piniongear that

is

used

will

determine the final drive ratio.

To

calculate the final drive ratio, first divide the spurgear size bythe pinion gearsize. Forexample,

ifyou

are

using a 20-tooth pinion gear, you would divide 84 (spurgear size) by

20

{p

inion gearsize). 84120 = 4.2. This tells you that

4.2

is

the externaldrive ratio. Next, multiply the internal drive ratio (2.

3)

by the external drive ratio{in this case

4.2)

.2.3x 4.2 = 9.

66

.

This means that by using a

20

-tooth pinion gear with the standard 84-tooth spurg

ea

r, the final drive ratio is 9.66:

I.

Consult your high-performance shop for recommendations to suit your racing style

and

class.
