Steering stop
When the steering wheel is turned to the very left or right, it must reach the steering stop attached to the frame.
In every steering position, the tie rod heads must be moving without stiffness, allowing for turning with minimum
effort.
Bent of broken components of the steering system must be replaced without delay with original RiMO spare
parts.

Maintenance/change of wheels
Tyres that are worn or damaged must be replaced without delay.
When replacing tyres, observe the following:
–
Replace tyres, if the wear mark is no longer visible or if the tread/carcase is damaged.
–
Always replace tyres in pairs, i.e. replace both tyres of the front or of the rear axle, or replace all four tyres
together. Dispose of worn tyres according to the statutory waste disposal regulations.
–
Observe the direction mark on the tyres (if any).
–
Only use tyres and wheel rims of the size specified by RiMO. Wheels or tyres with other dimensions can
cause damage to the vehicle and lead to unexpected drive behaviour, resulting in accidents.
–
When mounting the tyres on the wheels, do not inflate them to more than 4 bar, as there is otherwise a risk
that the wheel become damaged or the tyre bursts.
The tyre pressure for normal driving operation is between 1.2 and 2 bar. For other tyre pressures, contact
the manufacturer.
–
Poor tracking alignment can cause excessive tyre wear. Use only tyres that are suitable for your vehicle and
your track.
