Hi, Can any of you guys give me some tips or instructions for using my Tower Power Heavy Duty Electric Starter?

I've never had a starter and in Controline I always felt the purist should hand flip a motor to get it started. Now as I enter RC and fill out my flight box, I've added a starter just for ease. I'm having some problems though. First of all, I'm wearing a real nice groove in my spinner where the starter cone rubs and sometimes it just jumps around the spinner. I think one of the things I might be doing is starting too "wet". I know about hydraulic lock and the warnings. Someone told me that I should make sure the prop is just past tdc so that it has some chance to swing all the way around and get moving. Also, when starting, should the cone of the starter be held firmly against the spinner before activating the starter?

I think I just need some basic instructions that I must have missed.

Thanks for any suggestions or tips.

Tom
