WELCOME JRX-PRO OWNER!!!
Winning races gets harder all the time. As technology and our on track testing advances, so
do the cars and trucks that Team Losi produces.
This kit features the latest in racing technology and design as
we know it today. We are com-
mitted
to maintaining the high level of design, construction, ease of useand customer support that
has made our cars and customers many time national and international champions. I feel confi-
dent you will find this kit to
be easy to build and contain all the right parts to be race ready out of
the box.
I would like to thank my Dad for not compromising when it came to tooling or the extra costs for
the best materials available. Thanks
to the Engineering staff for putting up with my demands. Last,
but not least, Ron Rossetti and Jack Johnson, you are the best!
Thank you for choosing Team Losi,
Gil Losi Jr.
P.S . Please return the registration card so we can keep you informed of the latest racing tips
and technical advancements.
1. INTRODUCTION
The JRX-PRO kit is composed of different bags
marked Bag A through Bag
F. Each bag con-
tains all
of the parts necessary to complete a
certain section
of the car. It is essential that
you open only one bag at a time and follow
the right sequence, otherwise you will face dif-
ficulties in finding the right part. It is helpful
to read the entire instructions forthe bag
prior
to starting assembly. Key numbers (in
circles) have been assigned to each part and
remain the same in the illustration and
throughout the instructions. For your con-
venience, an actual size hardware identifica-
tion guide is included
in Appendix A of the
manual. To check a part, hold
it against the
silhouette until it is identified. In some cases
extra hardware has been supplied
to replace
easily lost parts. When assembling shafts to
plastic parts, different fits e.g., press, net,
loose have been designed into
the parts. To
ensure that parts are not lostduring construc-
tion , it is suggested that you work over a
towel
or mat to prevent the parts from rolling
away.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
1. Select an area tor assemblythat is away
from reach of small children. The parts are
small and can be swallowed by children causing
choking and possible internal injuries.
2. Theshockfluid suppliedshouldbekept out of
children'sreach. It is nottoxic but it wasnotIntended
forhumanconsumption.
3. Exercise care when using any hand tools,
sharp instruments and power
tools during con-
struction.
4. Carefully read a ll manufacturers warnings
and cautions for any glues or paints that may be
used for assembly purposes.

INTRODUCTION (C ont.)
TOOL S REQUIR ED
Team Losi has supplied all allen wrenches
and a special wrench that
is needed foras-
sembly and adjustments. The following com-
mon tools will also be required: #2 Phillips
screw driver, small flatblade screwdriver,
needle nose pliers, regular pliers, scissors
or
other body cutting/trimming tool. 3/16'', 1/4",
and 3/8" nut driversare optional.
RADIO/ ELECT RICAL
The JRX-PRO is an out of the box high perfor-
mance race car. It is for
this reason that we
have not included specific instructions on
radio and electrical equipment installation.
We have left this subject to the personal
preference
of the owner/racer.
A suggested layout is provided In this
manual. If you have any further quest ions,
your high performance R/C center will be
able
to answer any of your questions.
HARDWARE IDENTIFICATION
When in question, use the hardware iden-
tification guide
in Appendix A. For screws,
the prefix numberdesignates the screw
size and numberthreads per Inch e.g., 4-40
is a #4 screw with 40 threads per inch. The
fraction following designates length
of
thread or overall if flathead type. Bearings
are referenced
by inside diameter X outside
diameter. Shafts and pins are diameterX
length. Washers are described
by inside
diameter. E-clips are sized by the shaft
diameter of attachment.
