SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The 1st rule in safe riding is to use common sense. A ZIMX HK8 Kart is vulnerable; it cannot protect you in a crash,
against impact, or loss of control the way driving a car can. A ZIMX HK8 Kart can tip over sideways or pitch you
over the front wheel. It moves faster than a typical scooter. It does not have bumpers or airbags as a car does.
This section is a guide of safe riding practices for operation. Make sure you are using your ZIMX HK8 Kart properly.
Different localities and countries have different laws governing riding in public places, and you should check with
local laws to ensure you are complying with them.
ZIMX or UKBIGBUY is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders who do not follow these regulations.
• For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards. In the event of an accident, a
helmet can protect you from serious injury and in some cases, even death.
• Hover karts and Hover boards are not transportation vehicles.
• Do no use on public roads. Obey all local laws.
• Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
• Do not ride too close to other riders and alert them if you intend to pass them from behind.
• If riding with friends and multiple ZIMX HK8 Karts, ride single in a straight line.
WARNING!!
It is illegal to ride electric scooters or self balancing scooters on public roads, pavements, or cycle paths.

prematurely. Components suffering from stress fatigue can fail suddenly, causing loss of control or serious injury.
