Servicing your Blade
“
Basic Maintenance
”
Intro
A
ny kart you purchase will require at least “basic maintenance” on a regular basis. The
better the kart, the less tools you’ll need but all require regular maintenance such as; oil
changes, replacing brake pads, tightening nuts & bolts, etc.
If you are handy, these are all very easy to do and only require a basic knowledge to maintain.
W
e would like to share some tips and basic maintenance procedures to keep you rolling. These
can all be done by the customer without voiding the warranty if done properly. If at any time you
don’t feel comfortable with any of these procedures, drop it by our shop and we would be glad to
do it for you!
We offer service contracts if you choose to go that route!

efore riding, you should always go over all the major nuts and bolts to be sure
everything is tight and check “high impact” items such as lug nuts, shocks and struts.
Give the tires a good kick!
(We “Locktite” most nuts and bolts when we put them together but the more fun you have in your
Blade, the more you need to check them!
