WARNING!
IMPORTANT RULES FOR SAFE OPERATING! All the flowing items should be
read and understood by the operator. Failure to do so could endanger the
personal safety of the operator and any passenger.
1. This vehicle is not licensable. It is not to be operated on any public road, street, highway,
parking lot, sidewalk or alley. To do so would be in violation of the local law. This vehicle
may be operated only on private property and upon areas approved by local law. Avoid
operating this vehicle in any area with stationary objects that the vehicle could travel under.
Do not ride in areas where other recreational vehicles are being operated. Be respectful of
landowners and the environment
2. This vehicle should never be operated indoors. The exhaust from the engine contains carbon
monoxide, which is a tasteless, odorless, and poisonous gas.
3. Unless otherwise specified in this manual, all screws, nuts, and bolts must be kept tight to
ensure that the vehicle is in safe operating condition. The engine must be kept free of all dirt
and other accumulations, paying particular attention to throttle linkage area.
4. Prevailing-Torque-type locknuts lose their locking capability with repeated use and require
replacement. Ensure locknuts are functioning properly.
5. The tire pressure should be checked prior to each use. The recommended inflation pressure
is the maximum tire pressure as printed on the tire's sidewall. Improper tire pressure may
cause instability and may prevent proper braking or steering.
6. Modification of this vehicle or removal of any original equipment or safety decals may render
the vehicle unsafe or illegal. Never Remove any chain guard, belt clutch guard, torque
converter guard, or jack shaft guard. These covers are for operator/passenger’s protection. If
any guards are removed for maintenance or servicing of the vehicle, ensure that they are
secured in place prior to operating the vehicle.
7. The vehicle should never be started without first checking to see that the throttle is in idle
position. Do not start engine without verifying proper function of the throttle. Never attempt to
start this vehicle without having the operator seated in the proper position or the front of the
vehicle against a stationary object. When starting with the operator in the seat, the operator
should have their left foot on the brake. The gas pedal on the right may be used to assist in
maintaining RPM during a cold start.
8. This vehicle is not designed or intended for racing, any form of competition, or use on rental
tracks.
9. The operator's ability to operate this off-road vehicle safely is largely dependent upon the
operator's ability to exercise proper judgment. An operator also must not be too small or too
large for controlled operation. The operator must be of sufficient age, understanding, mental
capacity, and physical capability to safely operate this vehicle. This vehicle should only be

9
operated after mature, supervised instruction and sufficient practice in decongested areas.
Safe operation includes responsibility for the safety of a passenger (if any).
10. The engine should be stopped when the vehicle is not in use.
11. The operator and passenger (if any) of this vehicle should always wear a helmet approved by
agencies such as the Department of Transportation (DOT), Safety Helmet Council of America
(SHCA), or Snell Memorial Foundation (SNELL). Most off-road vehicle accident fatalities are
due to head injuries. The operator should also wear face shields or goggles, boots or
closed-toe shoes, gloves, and other appropriate protective clothing.
12. Loose clothing, long hair, or articles worn by any operator or passenger must be fully
contained, or covered to prevent them from possibly being caught in rotating parts of the
vehicle or the surrounding environment while riding. Failure to obey could endanger the
personal safety of the operator or passenger.
13. Do not place hands, feet, or any other part of the body or any clothing near the engine, muffler,
wheels, chain, and other rotating parts of the vehicle while riding or running the engine.
Caution must be used in performing required maintenance on or near an operating engine.
Special caution should be taken after the engine has been running, since the engine and other
drive components may be extremely hot.
14. Wet, slippery, rough, or steep terrain is potentially dangerous and may result in injury if proper
caution is not observed. Slow speeds are required to safely operate this vehicle under those
conditions. The operator must use mature judgment, skill, and experience to choose a speed
suitable for the terrain and riding conditions.
15. The governor settings for this vehicle's engine must not be tampered with, altered, or changed.
The governor is set by the engine manufacturer and limits the maximum speed of the engine
(and vehicle) and protects the engine from damage. Excessive speeds are potentially
dangerous to the operator and the engine.
16. Each time before using this vehicle, the fuel supply should be checked. The fuel tank should
never be filled while the engine is running or while the engine is hot. Do not fill tank in a
closed area such as a garage, while smoking, or in the vicinity of an open flame. Do not
overfill the tank. Always follow the directions in the engine owner's manual. There should not
be any fuel in the filler neck. Replace cap tightly to prevent spillage of fuel and potential fire
hazard. After filling tank, move the vehicle at least 15 feet away from spot of filling before
starting.
17. If the vehicle should start making unusual noise or vibrating abnormally, the engine should be
stopped and the spark plug wire disconnected. The vehicle should then be checked for
damage. Excessive noise or vibration is generally a warning of loose or worn parts.
18. When making repairs or adjustments to the vehicle which do not involve adjustments to the
engine, the spark plug wire must be disconnected and kept away from the spark plug to
prevent accidental starting. When working on or around, or when restarting engine, use
extreme caution to avoid contact with the muffler, cylinder head, or any other potentially hot
area on or around the engine.

(if any).
10. STEERING SYSTEM - Ensure that it turns freely.

12
Driving Safety Tips
Turning Maneuvers
A new operator must learn to shift his or her weight and control the throttle to allow the rear tires to negotiate
the turn. This is the primary technique to be mastered in riding this vehicle. Practice turning at a slow
constant speed. Defer increased speeds until you are confident of your proficiency and are intimately familiar
with the terrain.
Steer in the direction of the turn, and lean your body to the inside of the turn in order to maximize front tire
traction. Use the throttle to maintain power throughout the turn.
Once this technique is learned, turning maneuvers can be performed within a relatively small area.
Incorrect turning techniques may cause the front wheels to slide straight ahead without affecting the vehicle's
direction of travel. If this should occur, come to a stop, then resume the technique outlined above.
If the front wheels tend to skid in mud, sand, or snow, you may be able to improve control by releasing the
throttle and allowing the vehicle to coast through the turn.
If the rear wheels inadvertently skid sideways, correct your slide by steering in the direction of the skid, if you
have room to perform this maneuver safely. Avoid braking or accelerating until you have control.
To avoid skids while traveling on slippery terrain, the operator must exercise a high degree of caution.
Turning maneuvers on slippery terrain are more hazardous than those performed under full traction and must
be done slowly.
Surface composition is a major factor affecting skidding. It is easier to slide on packed snow than in deep
sand. It is dangerous to skid on ice, because you may lose all directional control, and it is dangerous to skid
on pavement, because you may regain traction suddenly and unexpectedly, which can cause the vehicle to
overturn.
Climbing Hills
Practice climbing on evenly surfaced slopes of less than 20 degrees. The vehicle's capability in climbing hills
or traversing any specific terrain is dependent upon operator skill and vehicle load. As you gain experience in
handling this vehicle, and learn the hazards to be encountered and your own limitations you may then
proceed to drive more challenging terrain. However, you must first be able to discern and avoid any hill or
hazard that would cause this vehicle to overturn. WARNING - Do not apply power suddenly by opening the
throttle while ascending a hill or the front wheels may rise from the ground. If the front wheels lift, the
operator’s control will be lessened and the vehicle may overturn backwards.
If you should find that you have incorrectly estimated climbing capability and lack the power or traction to
continue the ascent, if space permits, turn the vehicle around while you still have the forward speed to do so
and descend. Avoid stalling part way up a hill, as maneuvering will then become more difficult.
CAUTION - Before attempting a turn on a hillside, the operator should first master turning technique on level
ground.
If you do lose all forward speed, and can neither continue uphill nor maneuver the vehicle under its own

13
power, turn off the engine, dismount, and physically turn the machine around.
CAUTION - To avoid overturning, the operator must exercise a high degree of caution when dismounting or
moving this vehicle on a hillside.
Descending Hills
It is usually advisable to descend hills with the vehicle pointed directly downhill, avoiding angles that would
cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. As you approach the point of descent, stop and survey the
terrain below. Never drive headlong past your limit of visibility. When you have picked a safe path of descent,
descend slowly with the throttle closed. Sit back on the seat, with arms extended and braced on the steering
wheel.
When descending it is recommended that the operator apply the brakes intermittently to further reduce
forward speed. Braking effectiveness is reduced while descending any incline with a loose surface.

15
VEHICLE OPERATING CONTROLS
Vehicle controls consist of the followings:
Ignition Key Switch
Electric Start
Horn
Headlight Switch
Steering Wheel
Choke Cable
Seat Slider
Brake Pedal
Throttle Pedal
OPERATING CONTROLS
WARNING: DOnot attempt to start or operate the engine until completely familiar with
the location and use of each control necessary to operate this vehicle. The operator
must know how to stop this machine before starting and driving it.

16
Throttle Pedal
The right foot pedal is the throttle that controls the kart speed. As the engine speed
increase above idle, the clutch automatically engages and moves the vehicle forward.
To disengage the clutch at any time, allow the throttle to return to idle position.
WARNING: Each time prior to starting the engine, check the throttle assembly to ensure
that when the pedal is pushed all the way forward the assembly is working smoothly and
returns to idle when released. Do not operate if pedal or engine throttle linkage fail to
return to idle. If unable to correct the problem through lubrication, adjustment or
replacement of worn parts, contact your local dealer for assistance.
Brake Pedal
The brake pedal is located on the left side of the kart. Apply pressure to the pedal
draws the brake caliper around the brake pump at the rear wheel and slows or stops the
vehicle.
Start Engine
To start the engine, first insert the key into the ignition key switch. This vehicle is
equipped with automatic start switch. Pull the choke cable out, the choke cable is
located on the left hand side of the steering wheel. Turn the “KEY IGNITION” to the
“ON” position and then push the “ELECTRIC START” button until you hear starter motor
cranking. DO NOT ATTEMP TO HOLD IGNITION START BUTTON FOR MORE THAN 10
SECONDS, AS IT WILL BURN UP THE STARTER MOTOR. If the engine does not start, wait
for 15 seconds before attempt to start the engine again. Once the engines starts, wait
5 minutes for the engine to warm up, and then push back the choke cable. The vehicle
is now ready for operate.

Service Instructions
ENGINE LUBRICATION Ensure that you follow the procedures outlined in the engine owner's manual that is
provided as a supplement to this manual. Failure to follow procedures could reduce the life of your engine.
VEHICLE LUBRICATION - Every two or three hours of use lubricate the following items with several drops of
oil; steering bearing points, brake rod pivot points, pedal pivot points, steering spindles, and steering rod ends.
Use the same grade of lubricating oil that is used in the engine crankcase.
CHAIN LUBRICATION - For the best chain life, it should be lubricated with a graphite type lubricant such as
the spray-on type which evaporates leaving the graphite on the chain. Using oil or grease on the chain in
dusty or sandy riding conditions may cause dirt particles to stick to the chain resulting in rapid wear from
abrasion.
FRONT WHEEL REPLACEMENT - Care must be used when replacing wheels. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN
AXLE NUTS. It is only necessary to tighten the nuts so that the wheel turns freely on the axle with minimum
end play. If the wheel does not turn freely the nut is too tight.
REAR WHEEL REPLACEMENT - Loosen the large locknut in the center of the wheel to remove the rear
wheel.
CHAIN ADJUSTMENT - After the first two hours of operation, check the chain adjustment and readjust it if it
has more than 3/8" flex. Loosen the engine clamp nuts and slide the engine and jack shaft assembly
rearward to tighten the chain. Allow about 3/8" flex for proper adjustment. Tighten the nuts securely. On
models equipped with a centrifugal clutch, the engine may need to be moved forward to tighten the chain.
