Rage Comet & Comet ‘R’ Maintenance Guide
Issue 2.0 October 2014
Rage Comet & Comet ‘R’
Breaking in Period
When your vehicle leaves the factory, every effort is made to ensure that all nuts, bolts
clips and callipers have been torqued to the correct level. Due to the nature of the
uses of our off-road and track vehicles, we recommend that the following critical parts
receive special attention to ensure the safety of the driver, passenger and the vehicle.
The ZX1400 engines are already run in, therefore the running in process is not
necessary.
After the first 10 minutes of use, check the following:
Torque the wheel nuts to:
(10mm Stud @ 70Nm / 51 ft lbf)
(12mm Stud @ 90Nm / 66 ft lbf)
Visually check all around the vehicle, and in particular, check that there are no brake
fluid, engine oil, Quaife gearbox (refer to maintenance section regarding the oil
breather pot) or radiator coolant leaks.
If any leaks are found that are not linked to a screw working loose which can be easily
rectified, then please contact the Rage Motorsport customer services.
After the first 45 minutes of use, check the following:
Recheck the torque setting of the wheel nuts
Recheck the vehicle for leaks.
Following the second breaking in check you should now follow the periodic checks as
described below.
Enjoy your Rage vehicle and may you have
happy and safe motoring!
