Off-Road Use Only
Your kart and its tires are designed and manufactured for off-road use only, not for
use on paved surfaces. Driving on paved surfaces can affect the kart handling and control.
You should not drive your kart on paved surfaces.
When driving off-road, also remember to always obey local off-road driving laws and
regulations. Obtain permission to drive on private property. Avoid posted areas and obey “no
trespassing” signs.
You should never drive your kart on public streets, roads or highways, even if they are
not paved. Drivers of street vehicles may have difficulty seeing and avoiding you, which
could lead to a collision. In many states it is illegal to operate karts on public streets, roads
and highways.
Keep Hands and Feet on Controls
When driving your kart. always keep both hands on the steering wheel and both feet on
the foot controls. It is important to maintain your balance and to control the kart. Removing
hands or feet away from the controls can reduce your ability to react and control the kart.
Control Speed

appropriate speed. you need to consider the capability of your kart. the terrain, visibility and
other operating conditions, plus your own skill and experience.
