HOW TO RIDE YOUR MINIMO-
TO™ GO KART:
IMPORTANT: TWO PEOPLE SHOULD BE
INVOLVED IN THE ENTRY OF THE DRIVER INTO
THE GO KART TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
MOVEMENT OF THE VEHICLE OR FALLING.
NOTE: It will take a little practice to get
used to driving. Take it slowly and start in a
location that is very open and away from
obstacles or obstructions. Take steps to learn
the proper way to use your left foot for brak-
ing purposes.
1) WARNING: BEFORE DOING ANYTHING,
REMOVE THE POWER SHUT-OFF “T” HANDLE
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ENTRY INTO THE VEHI-
CLE. THIS WILL PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
ACCELERATION WHEN LOADING.
2) CHECK TO SEE THE “ON/OFF” SWITCH ON
THE STEERING WHEEL IS IN THE “ OFF” AND
THE “FWD/REV” SWITCH IS IN THE “ FWD”
(forward) POSITION.
3) Loosen the
knob under the
steering col-
umn. (Fig. 15)
4) Slide the
Steering Wheel
up and rotate it
forward to allow
easier access
to entry. (Fig.
16)
5) Step in the vehicle and carefully slide
down into the seat.
6) Place the
Steering Wheel
back to the driv-
ing position.
Re-tighten the
knob under the
steering column
until it is tight.
(Fig. 17)
7) Put on the
seat belt and
adjust until
tight but com-
fortable low around the driver’s waist. (Fig.
18)
8) Place your feet on the pedals. (Fig. 19)
9) Have some-
one outside the
vehicle insert
the Power shut
off “T” handle
into the hole at
the rear of the
Go Kart near
the battery box.
IMPORTANT:
This should be
done ONLY after
the rider is in
position to pre-
vent accidental
movement of the Go Kart while the driver is
loading. (Fig. 20)
NOTE: If the “T” handle is not in its proper
location, the vehicle will not move.

HOW TO RIDE YOUR MINIMO-
TO™ GO KART: (Cond’t)
10) Move the Control
switch to either training
mode or normal mode.
(Fig. 21)
IMPORTANT: It is
suggested that ANY
first time driver use TRAINING MODE first to
get familiar with the vehicle. This mode will
limit the speed to about 1/2of the true poten-
tial. Once the driver is familiar with the oper-
ation of the vehicle, they can select the
faster normal mode.
11) Put the switch on the Steering Wheel to
the ON position.
12) Put the FWD/REV switch to the FWD
position.
13) Wait one
second then
step on the
accelerator
pedal (driver’s
right side
pedal). The
MINIMOTO™ GO KART should move forward. If
not, lift your foot from the pedals, wait one
second and try again. (Fig. 22)
14) The more you press on the accelerator
pedal, the faster the vehicle will go.
15) To stop,
press on the
brake pedal
(driver’s left
side). (Fig. 23)
TIP: You do
not need to let
off of the accelerator when you press on the
brake. The power is automatically cut off to
the motor when the brake pedal is pressed.
This will help you conserve power and speed
when driving.
16) BE CAREFUL: The MINIMOTO™ GO
KART can reach speeds up to 18 MPH on a
level surface (depending on the surface ter-
rain and the weight of the rider).

SPECIAL SAFETY WARNINGS:
1) When accelerating please ensure that you
start slowly & precisely.
2) The brakes are designed to control speed
as well as stop the vehicle. Practice braking
for slow-down and smooth stopping.
3) Never operate the accelerator pedal when
the rear wheels are off the ground or the go
kart in an upside down position.
TIRE INFLATION PROCEDURE:
WARNING: Tire inflation must be done
ONLY BY AN ADULT. NEVER inflate the tires
above 30 PSI. The recommened tire
pressure is 27 PSI. Tires should be
inflated with a standard “bicycle” type pump.
Inflation at an automobile service station can
easily result in over inflation of the tires.
Over inflation of the tires can result in seri-
ous injury or even death.
Tires MUST be at the proper inflation in order
to achieve good handling characteristics and
control. Over inflation will make the tires
“bulge” outward. This will cause premature
wear of the tire. Under inflation will cause
the tire to look flat on the ground. This will
result in poor running speeds and handling.
Make sure that your tires are properly inflated
to get the most out of your vehicle.
Before inflating any tire, make sure the Power
Shut-off “T” handle is removed from the back
of the Go kart.
TO INFLATE A TIRE,
UNSCREW THE PROTEC-
TIVE CAP FROM THE
VALVE STEM AND
ATTACH THE BICYCLE
PUMP AS YOU WOULD
WITH ANY BICYCLE.

HOW TO RIDE YOUR MINIMO-
TO™ GO KART:
IMPORTANT: TWO PEOPLE SHOULD BE
INVOLVED IN THE ENTRY OF THE DRIVER INTO
THE GO KART TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
MOVEMENT OF THE VEHICLE OR FALLING.
NOTE: It will take a little practice to get
used to driving. Take it slowly and start in a
location that is very open and away from
obstacles or obstructions. Take steps to learn
the proper way to use your left foot for brak-
ing purposes.
1) WARNING: BEFORE DOING ANYTHING,
REMOVE THE POWER SHUT-OFF “T” HANDLE
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ENTRY INTO THE VEHI-
CLE. THIS WILL PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
ACCELERATION WHEN LOADING.
2) CHECK TO SEE THE “ON/OFF” SWITCH ON
THE STEERING WHEEL IS IN THE “ OFF” AND
THE “FWD/REV” SWITCH IS IN THE “ FWD”
(forward) POSITION.
3) Loosen the
knob under the
steering col-
umn. (Fig. 15)
4) Slide the
Steering Wheel
up and rotate it
forward to allow
easier access
to entry. (Fig.
16)
5) Step in the vehicle and carefully slide
down into the seat.
6) Place the
Steering Wheel
back to the driv-
ing position.
Re-tighten the
knob under the
steering column
until it is tight.
(Fig. 17)
7) Put on the
seat belt and
adjust until
tight but com-
fortable low around the driver’s waist. (Fig.
18)
8) Place your feet on the pedals. (Fig. 19)
9) Have some-
one outside the
vehicle insert
the Power shut
off “T” handle
into the hole at
the rear of the
Go Kart near
the battery box.
IMPORTANT:
This should be
done ONLY after
the rider is in
position to pre-
vent accidental
movement of the Go Kart while the driver is
loading. (Fig. 20)
NOTE: If the “T” handle is not in its proper
location, the vehicle will not move.
