Default Q: running in an engine on the bench, how ?

I want to run in my O.S. Max .46 FXi engine that came with my Hobbico NexSTAR 46 Select 4-Channel RTF 68.75", which is my first plane.
But I am not sure or the engine will have enough cooling when it's run in on the banch ...

And how exactly do I have to do this ? Just attach it to something and put a propeller on it ... ? And how many tanks do I have to run through it ? and do I have to run it rich or lean ?


hope you guys can help a newbie in Planes out,
