Warning ★ Fire is used for the experiment. Use great caution to avoid
a burn and fire. Do not let a 15 or less-year-old child experiment alone.
★ Caution with Fire and Heat ★
・ Do not leave the engine while the lamp is lit or heat remains.
・ Do not hold the body or the stand when the lamp is lit. It is very dangerous
　if the alcohol spill.
・ Do not put the stand on a slippery surface when making an experiment, or it may move.
・ Use great caution with small children when making the car experiment together.
・ Use great caution with remaining heat after the experiment.
・ Remove alcohol from the alcohol tray after the experiment when not using
for a long time.
・ Use great caution to keep alcohol fuel after the experiment. Keep children away
from the fuel and the machine.
Ｑ ： The displacer doesn't move even with batteries.
A1. Are the batteries new? Are the positive and negative terminals on the batteries facing the right way?
Are the motor and the batteries connected firmly?
A2. Have you adjusted the heights of the piston with a gauge accurately?
A3. Isn't the gear idling? (Ensure the lever 3 is turned on.)
Ｑ ： The displacer moves with batteries but doesn't move with the alcohol lamp.
A1. Do the displacer adjuster (the black rubber tube at the E5 connecting rod) and the metallic part at the
end of the displacer move in the same rhythm? (If they don't, see p.15 and adjust the length of the shaft
of the displacer.)
A2. Does the wick of the alcohol lamp come out enough? (Check with the diagram at p.18)
Ｑ ： The fan experiment doesn't go well.
A. Doesn't the nut at lever 2 loosen and the gear become out of mesh? (Tighten the nut of the lever 2.)
Ｑ ： The engine becomes slow after several times of experiments.
A. Dust may be produced by the friction wear of the metallic end. Remove the glass cylinder and clean out the dust.
※Caution!
 This part remains hot.

Attaching Non-Slip Cover to the Four Corners of the Stand
How do Stirling Engines work?
Set four non-slip covers (See the diagram.)

Making Your Own Displacer

You can make your own displacer using the shaft of the displacer in the kit. In case you make one, follow the instructions
below. (It is not necessary to make one if the kit moves well in the first place. Try when the original one crumbles, or the
metallic part has come off, or you really want to try.)

※Please wear a mask since metallic dust floats in the air.
⑥Wrap what is left around the core.
 Wrap the first half tight and the second half

⑦Neaten the shape of the rolled steel wool with a board.
 Move it back and force in the glass cylinder to check the shape
 at times.
※Check if it moves
