This manual will help you understand, set up and safely use the Razor
®
Hovertrax
™
Kart. It is important that you adhere to
all safety warnings and cautions that appear throughout and that you use good judgment when riding, so keep reading!
WARNING:
Whenever you ride the Hovertrax Kart you risk serious injury or death from collisions, falls or loss of
control. To ride safely, YOU MUST READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS IN THIS MANUAL.
WARNING:
Riding any product can be a hazardous activity. Certain
conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the manufacturer.
Like other ride-on products, the Razor Hovertrax Kart can and is intended
to move, and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or get into
dangerous situations that no amount of care, instruction or expertise can
eliminate. If such things occur you can be seriously injured or die, even when
using safety equipment and other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK
AND USE COMMON SENSE.
WARNING:
Failure to read and understand “How to Ride” section of
this manual (page 7) increases risk of injury due to falls or other incidents.
WARNING:
NOT FOR RIDERS UNDER AGE 8 OR HEAVIER
THAN 176 LB (80 KG)
. DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 176 lb (80
kg) – including backpacks and other items that might be carried. Exceeding
the weight limit could injure the rider and damage the Razor Hovertrax
Kart. Rider weight alone also does not necessarily mean a person’s size is
appropriate to fit or maintain control of the Razor Hovertrax Kart. Keep this
product away from small children and remember that this product is intended
for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and
competent while operating the product.
Razor recommends that children under the age of 8 not be permitted to
use this product. This recommendation is based not just on age or weight
or height – it reflects consideration of expected maturity and skills as well
as physical size. The recommended rider age of 8 years or older is only an
estimate and can be affected by the rider’s size, weight, or skills – not every
rider 8 years old or older will be suited to the product. Certainly, any rider
unable to fit comfortably on the Razor Hovertrax Kart should not attempt to
ride it, but a
parent’s decision to allow his or her child to ride this
product should be based on the child’s maturity, skill, and ability to
follow rules. Razor emphasizes that adults are strongly advised not
to disregard Razor’s recommendations or permit younger children to
ride the Razor Hovertrax Kart.
Because products, like the Razor Hovertrax Kart, can and do present
potential hazards plainly associated with their use, it is well recognized
THE NEED FOR EXERCISE OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN SELECTING
RIDING PRODUCTS APPROPRIATE TO THE AGE OF A RIDER, OR PARENTAL
SUPERVISION IN SITUATIONS IN WHICH CHILDREN OF VARIOUS AGES MAY
HAVE ACCESS TO THE SAME RIDING PRODUCTS, IS IMPORTANT. Not every
product is appropriate for every age or size of rider, and recommendations
are intended to reflect the nature of the hazards and the expected mental or
physical ability, or both, of a rider to cope with the hazards.
Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them
susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity or mental capabilities
to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions, and to be able to
understand the hazards inherent in a product’s use, should not use or be
permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities. Persons with heart
conditions, head, back or neck ailments (or prior surgeries to these areas of the
body), or pregnant women, should be cautioned not to operate this product.
CHECK AND MAINTAIN RAZOR HOVERTRAX KART
WARNING:
Always inspect the Razor Hovertrax Kart prior to use.
Properly inspecting and maintaining your product can reduce the risk of
injury. Before use, check to confirm that any and all guards or covers are
in place and in serviceable condition. Check that the parts are functioning
properly, that the wheel is not damaged or worn excessively. The Razor
Hovertrax Kart should be maintained and repaired in accordance with the
manufacturer’s specifications, using only the manufacturer’s authorized
replacement parts, and should not be modified from the manufacturer’s
original design and configuration. Replace worn or broken parts immediately.
WARNING:
Check local laws and regulations to see where and how
you may use your Razor Hovertrax Kart legally. Follow all applicable laws for
vehicles and pedestrians.
SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR CONTINUED USE:
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO ALL USERS
Periodically review this information and make sure that you understand all
warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics. Do not let others ride the
Razor Hovertrax Kart until they have read this manual. Any type of wheeled
activity can be hazardous. Wheels can, and are intended to move and it is
therefore possible to get into dangerous situations and/or lose control and/or
fall off. In such situations serious injury or death could occur.
Always be aware of the activity around you. Use the Razor Hovertrax Kart
in areas free from fixed or moving hazards. Watch your surroundings for
pedestrians, animals and riders of other wheeled devices.
WARNING:
Only use the Razor Hovertrax Kart indoors or on
completely smooth surfaces. Avoid obstacles and slippery surfaces, which
could result in a loss of balance or traction and cause a fall. See the section
on Terrain (page 8) for more guidelines.
Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel(s) or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid
pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who
may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.
