WARNING
—Tire Pressure – The air pressure in each tire should be checked carefully. The proper air pressure for
each type of tire is printed on the the side of the tire. Some vehicles with different tires on the front and rear may also
have different air pressures. Ensure each tire is properly inflated. Tires that are under or overinflated can create
dangerous conditions that could result in loss of control and serious injury or death.
WARNING - Perform this pre-ride inspection prior to operating the vehicle. If not performed, serious
damage to the vehicle or personal injury may result.
1. ENGINE OIL LEVEL - Add oil if required. Check for leaks.
Tighten filler cap securely.
2. FUEL LEVEL - Add fuel as necessary. Do not overfill (no fuel
in the filler neck). Replace cap tightly. Check for leaks. Do
not mix oil with gas.
WARNING - Do not refill engine while it is hot. It is possible
for spilled fuel to ignite resulting in a fire. Do not fill gas tank in
a closed area such as a garage. After filling the tank move the
vehicle at least 15 feet away from spot of filling before starting.
3. BRAKES - PERFORM A BRAKE TEST: Have the operator sit
in the seat, then push the vehicle from behind. Once the
vehicle is rolling, have the operator apply the brake pedal.
The vehicle should come to a stop. WARNING- Do not
operate this vehicle unless the brake is working properly.
NOTE : Band brake systems typically require a short break-in
period to operate at full efficiency. Some wear on the lining of
the brake pads will increase the coefficient of friction and
improve their effectiveness. That can be accomplished by
making a series of gentle stops. Hard usage of the brakes
without a break-in period can result in shortened brake pad life
and decrease braking ability.
4. TIRES - Check condition and pressure.
5. DRIVE CHAIN - Check condition, tension, lubricate as
necessary.
6. THROTTLE - CHECK FOR SMOOTH OPERATION. Assure
throttle "snaps" back to idle. Also, check for frayed cable or
damaged cable conduit. If either condition exists replace the
cable assembly before riding.
7. TOGGLE KILL SWITCH - PERFORM THIS TEST (only for
models without electric starter): While the engine is running,
move the toggle kill switch on the steerring column to the
"OFF" position. If this does not stop the engine, check to
ensure that the toggle kill switch wire is attached to the
terminal on the engine. WARNING- DO NOT OPERATE
THIS VEHICLE WITH A TOGGLE KILL SWITCH THAT IS
NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.
8. ALL NUTS, BOLTS, AND FASTENERS - Check wheels to
see that all axle nuts and lug nuts are tightened properly.
Check and tighten all other fasteners as necessary.
9. GUARDS - Ensure all protective guards are in place. NEVER
OPERATE THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT ALL CHAIN, CLUTCH,
OR DRIVE ASSEMBLY COVER GUARDS IN PLACE. Each
of these covers have a protective purpose, if removed, could
endanger the personal safety of the operator or passenger (if
any).
10. STEERING SYSTEM - Ensure that it turns freely.
CORRECT any discrepancies according to the Owner's Manual before riding. If a problem
cannot be corrected, contact an authorized dealer/retailer for assistance
.
