PLEASE NOTE:

These Go Karts are not designed for 4WD Tracks, steep hills, rocky or very uneven terrain. They are essentially a grass drift go kart. Damage may occur when used in unsuitable terrain & we hold no liability if the go kart is not adequately maintained or used inappropriately.

Please do not tow with these karts as clutch may overheat and cause damage.

Running the karts for long periods of time at low revs can also cause damage to the clutch.

Although the karts can be easily governed for younger children or inexperienced riders, this should only be a temporary adjustment .

Please ensure all bolts/nuts including pre-assembled parts are tight and secure before use.

Check on a regular basis, especially during the running in period as they can vibrate loose.

We recommend lock tight for extra security especially when go kart is used on uneven terrain.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Please view DVD for detailed instruction.

We have made a list of some handy tips to assist you with assembling your Go Kart. .

1. Firstly, connect the front frame with the middle frame. Bolt securely.

2. Connect the rear frame and suspension springs to main frame. Connect rear frame loosely as later you will need to bolt the seatbelt here.

3. We recommend using lock tight as the nuts can become loose over time with the vibration. Regularly check and tighten nuts and bolts.

4. Check pre-assembled nuts and bolts as these have been found to be loose. It is the buyers responsibility to check these are all secure before using the go karts.

5. Connect steering column and fully extend to the highest position Tighten collar clamps using larger allen key provided.

6. Connect hydraulic brake handle to left steering. Use smaller allen key provided to tighten handle bracket. (Fig.8) Keep cable on inner side of the outside frame

& between the wishbone below steering. Make sure you remove small black plastic tongue on the brake handle. Use a pair of nose pliers to remove this.

7. Release throttle cable & on/off wiring cable on steering. Run through wishbone of steering with brake cable. Run cables along brake side of go kart; keep on the inner edge of frame. (Fig.5)

8. Connect the on/off switch wiring running from steering to the earth on the petrol tank. (Fig.6)

9. The air filter needs to be removed before attaching throttle cable to lever on motor. Undo both wing nuts to remove unit. Run throttle cable to lever on back of motor. Remove small screw on bolt. Carefully insert cable wire through hole.

Replace screw & tighten screw to hold cable wire in place. Be careful not to damage wire inner cable as this needs to move freely. (Fig.7)

10. Use cable ties to neatly tie to frame. Make sure all cables are free of acute angles & operate freely.

11. Roll cage assembly:

12. Unwrap all framing, extra bolts and padding. Place bolts, nuts in a neat pile.
