INTRODUCTION

Thank

you

for

purchasing

the

GREAT

PLANES

MASTER

CADDY!

The

MASTER

CADDY

with

its

detachable

APS

(Auxiliary

Power

Station)

is

the

most

convenient

field

box

available.

You

will

not

only

be

able

to

neatly

carry

all

your

flying

equipment

to

the

field,

but

thanks

to

the

APS,

you

will

also

be

able

to

start

your

engine

on

the

flight

line

or

wherever

you

wish,

without

carrying

the

whole

field

box

around.

PRECAUTIONS

You

must

be

very

careful

when

assembling

this

kit

and

when

working

with

the

adhesives

and

tools

to

keep

from

hurting

yourself

or

damaging

personal

property.

Take

your

time

and

build

the

MASTER

CADDY

according

to

these

instructions

and

you

will

end

up

with

a

straight,

nice

looking

field

box

that

you

will

be

proud

to

take

to

the

flying

field.

You

must

exercise

extreme

caution

when

in-

stalling

or

storing

any

electronic

items

on

or

in

your

MASTER

CADDY.

@

When

mounting

a

power

panel

or

electric

fuel

pump

make

sure

the

leads

can

not

short

out,

which

could

cause

sparks

or

excessive

heat.

@

Do

not

allow

your

glow

plug

driver,

battery

or

any

electrical

device

to

be

stored

in

your

MASTER

CADDY

without

the

proper

insulation

in

place

to

prevent

short

cir-

cuits.

Model

airplane

fuel

is

highly

flammable

and

explosive!

Extreme

care

should

be

taken

at

all

times.

Do

not

allow

anyone

to

smoke,

bring

any

flame

near

or

allow

anything

that

could

set

off

a

spark

near

the

fuel

container.

If

fuel

leaks

out

of

its

container

and

onto

the

MASTER

CADDY,

clean

everything

thoroughly

being

very

careful

not

to

ignite

the

fuel.

Model

airplane

fuel

burns

very

quickly,

and

cleanly,

with

a

flame

that

is

almost

in-

visible.

Never

use

the

cradles

to

hold

the

model

while

the

engine

is

running.

The

cradles

were

designed

for

holding

the

plane

while

assembling

and

working

on

it.

An

easy

way

of

doing

is

to

use

the

APS

bottom.

Slide

it

up

of

hold

the

The

compartment

which

will

hold

your

trans-

mitter

should

be

laid

out

now.

Itis

best

to

put

it

on

the

same

side

of

the

MASTER

CADDY

as

the

drawers

so

you

won't

hit

the

transmitter

sticks

on

your

leg

when

you

carry

it.

Use

shelf

divider

A

as

a

spacer

and

draw

a

line

down

the

long

edge

of

the

divider.

Remove

the

divider

and

test

fit

your

transmitter

in

place

to

make

sure

it

fits.

This

method

makes

a

compartment

approximately

2-5/8"

wide

which

will

hold

most

transmitters.

You

can

put

this

divider

any

distance

you

wish

from

the

side.

O

Use

the

divider

again

to

mark

a

vertical

line

on

one

of

the

uprights

(it

does

not

matter

which

one).

It

just

depends

on

where

you

would

like

the

compartment

to

be,

then

A,

With

the

compartments

laid

out

as

shown,

you

will

have

a

com-

partment

for

your

transmitter,

a

compartment

for

glues

the
