Simulation with Alpha Particle

Dear Fluka experts,
I want to do residual nuclei calculation with fluka for 10MeV/n alpha. The online manual says that the energy threshold for Heavy Ions is 100 MeV/n for Primary particles and 10 MeV/n for secondary particles. Does it mean that I will not be able to simulate the Alpha particles with 10MeV/n as Primary particle ? Why Fluka treats the primary and secondary particles differently ?

With Regards,
