FREE WHEEL SCOOTING
Unlock the rear wheel quick release lever. Pull wheel down
to bottom of axle adjustment slot. Rotate EPW to contact
lug and lock down Quick Release Lever. Check for free
rotation of rear wheel. Riding in this mode should be legal
anywhere bicycles are allowed.
NOTE:
Rear wheel adjustment will be required more fre-
quently when tire is new, to prevent drive system slippage.
If drive system is allowed to slip excessively, high temper-
atures will result and damage the drive spindle, extreme or
uneven tire wear will also result, causing uneven overload-
ing to engine crankshaft and bearing. Refer to ìHow to
adjust the rear wheelî section in this manual to correct
drive system engagement issues.

TIPS
BEFORE YOU RIDE-
•
Thoroughly inspect the unit for loose or damaged parts
before each use. Do not use until adjustment or repairs
are made.
•
New engine break in period is a few hours, so avoid full
throttle operation during this time.
•
Position your feet in any location that is comfortable to
you. Most prefer a parallel stance with the left leg slightly
behind the right and bearing most of the weight, lean
back slightly and your Go-Ped® will handle much like
water skiing.
•
Keep the air intake clear of debris.
•
Do not touch the muffler or cylinder these parts get
extremely hot from operation and remain hot for a short
time after the equipment is turned off.
DRIVING DEFENSIVELY
Although the engine noise has been reduced, it is difficult to
hear vehicles approaching you - head check often and
before changing direction. The Go-Ped® has been
designed to operate on any hard pack, dry smooth
surfaces: avoid wet and or oily surfaces, loose sand, gravel,
pot holes, etc. Always use both hands on the handle when
riding.
•
Do not wear loose fitting clothing or articles such as
scarves, strings, chains, ties, etc.
