Minari Paramotor

Priming the Engine

This is a 2-stroke engine and it MUST have oil mixed with the fuel!

As for fuel, we recommend the use of Avgas 100LL aviation fuel or premium ethanol free gasoline (see Fuel Tips), mixed with a high quality fully synthetic 40:1 (2.5%) 2-stroke oil. Minari has stated that Avgas is OK to use with their engine, and this is our recommendation of fuel for so many reasons. For the first 10 hours of operation, do not keep at full throttle for more than a few minutes.

Failure to mix the proper Synthetic Oil with your fuel even once will cause your engine to seize and void the warranty of your machine!

 

Attach the Starter Pulley

Bring the Starter handle and the pulley up from the Starter assembly and attach the pulley to the Inox Hook on the frame as shown.


Priming

To prime the motor, position your finger over the Primer Spring on the propeller side of the carburetor, then blow into the Priming Tube attached to the Fuel Tank. As you pressurize the tank, gently press the Primer Spring until you can see fuel reach the carburetor via the clear Fuel Tubing. Allow 1-2 seconds of fuel into the carburetor, and then release the Primer Spring before you release the blowing pressure into the Tank. If you release the Priming Tube pressure first, the fuel can drop back from the Carburetor and air can re-enter the Fuel Line.

Please be sure that all Fuel Caps are on straight and are seated to keep air from leaking from the Fuel System during the priming process. The Priming Tube also allows air to enter the tank as fuel is used during flight.

The next step is to Start your Motor.

DISCLAIMER: Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand this disclaimer before flying an ultralight aircraft. Paramotors, Powered Paragliders, PPG, PPG Trikes, Hang Glider Trikes, Weight shift Control Trikes - any of these small aircraft that weight less than 254 pounds and have a tank less than 5 gallons are considered Ultralights. These are single-place (solo) flying machines for sport aviation only during daylight hours. Ultralight flying is an extremely demanding sport requiring exceptional levels of attention, judgment, maturity and self discipline. It is unlikely that you will be able to participate in it safely unless you make a conscious and continual commitment to your own safety. Ultralight aircraft flying is an inherently dangerous sport and may result in injury and death even when practiced by a competent pilot using proper equipment. Ultralights are not covered by product liability insurance, nor have they been designed manufactured or tested to any federal or state government airworthiness standards or regulations. Do not fly them unless you are willing to assume personally all risks in the sport of ultralight flying, and all responsibility for any property damage, injury, or death which may result from your use of this activity. Safe operation of any ultralight aircraft requires a pilot proficiency equivalent to that of a Novice Solo Pilot or in some cases a BFI (Basic Flight Instructor), as well as an equivalent level of knowledge and understanding of those wind and weather conditions which may compromise the pilot's safe control of the ultralight. In particular, be advised that gusty winds or turbulent conditions may interfere with even an expert pilot's ability to safely control an ultralight aircraft, and may cause it to crash. Never take anything for granted in aviation. If you are in doubt about anything, stop and figure it out immediately. By purchasing this item, you assume sole responsibility for your safety and hold harmless the retailer and manufacturer for injury or death resulting from your use of this item.
