Starting Procedure
Before starting the machine inspect the following:
•
Insure that the fuel tank contains an adequate volume of fuel / oil mixture to
complete the distance required. (93 octane pump gas with Cobra’s specially
formulated
Cobra Venom
2-cycle Race Oil
)
•
Check for proper tire pressure in both tires.
•
Observe the chain tension and adjust if necessary.
•
Observe the coolant level and fill if necessary.
•
Verify that the chain rollers do not have improper wear.
•
Inspect the frame, for;
o
Cracks in the metal.
o
Cracking paint which might indicate overly stressed material.
•
Verify that the handlebars are tight.
•
Check the throttle for;
o
Smooth operation and sound closing.
o
Frayed strands of the cable inside the throttle housing.
•
Check for loose bolts and nuts, and re-torque as necessary.
•
Verify that the air filter is clean and properly saturated with oil.
•
Turn the fuel on by rotating the fuel petcock knob to the vertically downward
position (reserve position is horizontally inward).
CAUTION:
For best results from your Cobra ATV use only the recommended fuels. Testing
has shown that most ‘race’ fuels actually degrade performance.
When your pre-ride inspection is complete the bike may be started. For a cold
engine follow this procedure.
1.
Reaching down to the carburetor, on the left side of the bike, push down on
the black choke lever.
2.
Kick start the engine.
3.
Rev the engine in short spurts, turning the throttle no more than 1/4 open
until the engine will run without the choke.
4.
Verify a functional engine shut-off switch by shutting off the engine.
5.
Restart the engine and proceed with riding when the engine is sufficiently
warm (i.e. the side of the cylinder is warm to touch).
CAUTION:
Never rev an engine full throttle when it's cold or slightly warmed up. Cobra
recommends that you tell your child to take it easy the first couple of minutes in
practice until the engine comes up to full operating temperature. Make sure your
engine is properly warmed up before racing.
