DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS

When shifting down, use the brakes if necessary and turn down
at the same time. Pull clutch lever and shift down to the next
lower gear. Let the clutch lever go slowly and open throttle or
shift down again.
– After falling with the motorcycle, check all its functions
thoroughly before using it again.
– A twisted handlebar must always be replaced. Do not adjust
the handlebar, it will lose stability.
– Driving a cold engine at high speed will reduce the life of
the engine. We recommend to warm the engine up at a
medium engine speed for several minutes before switching
to full load.
– Never have the throttle wide open when changing down to
a lower gear. The engine will overrev, damaging the valves.
In addition, the rear wheel blocks so that the motorcycle can
easily get out of control.
– If the engine runs without throttle during longer downhill travel,
the engine should be accelerated occasionally to ensure that it
is supplied with sufficient lubricant which is mixed in the fuel.
– In the event that, while your child is riding on the motorcy-
cle, you notice any unusual operation-related noise, your child
should stop immediately, turn the engine off, and contact
an authorized KTM dealer.
Braking
Turn off the gas and apply the hand and foot brakes at the same
time. When driving on sandy, wet or slippery ground use mainly
the rear wheel brake. Always brake with feeling, blocking wheels
can cause you to skid or fall. Also change down to lower gears
depending on your speed.
– In case of rain, after washing the motorcycle, after rides through
water and in case of rides on wet off-road tracks, humid or
dirty brake discs can delay the braking effect. The brakes
must be pulled until they are dry or clean.
– Dirty brake discs cause increased tear of brake pads and brake discs.
– When you brake, the brake discs, brake pads, brake caliper
and brake fluid heat up. The hotter these parts get, the
weaker the breaking effect. In extreme cases, the entire
braking system can fail.
Stopping
Brake motorcycle and shift gears to idling. To switch off the engine,
depress short circuit switch until the engine stops. Close fuel tap.
Motorcycle engines produce a great amount of heat while
running. The engine, exhaust pipe, muffler, brake rotors, and
shock absorbers can become very hot.
Do not touch any of these parts after starting the motorcycle,
and take care to park it where pedestrians are not likely to touch
it and get burned.
– Close the fuel tap when leaving your vehicle. Otherwise the
carburetor may get flooded and fuel will enter the engine.
– The plug-in stand is designed to hold the weight of the
motorcycle only. By sitting on the motorcycle, your child will
put additional weight on the plug-in stand, possibly causing
the plug-in stand or swinging fork to be damaged or the motor-
cycle to fall down.
Refueling, fuel
Oil (high-grade two-stroke engine oil; i.e. Motorex Cross Power
2T) must be mixed with the fuel (ROZ 95) at a mixing ratio
of 1:40.
Gasoline is highly flammable and poisonous. Extreme caution
should be used when handling gasoline. Never refuel the motor-
cycle near open flames or burning cigarettes. Always switch off
the engine before refueling. Be careful not to spill gasoline on
the engine or exhaust pipe while the engine is hot. Wipe up spills
promptly. If gasoline is swallowed or splashed in the eyes, seek
a doctor’s advice immediately.
– Only use premium-grade gasoline ROZ 95 mixed with high-
grade two-stroke engine oil. Other types of gasoline can
cause engine failure.
– Only use known brands of high-grade 2-stroke engine oil
(Motorex Cross Power 2T).
– Not enough oil or low-grade oil can cause erosion of the pis-
ton. when Using too much oil, the engine may start smok-
ing and foul the spark plug.
– Fuel expands when its temperature rises. Therefore do not
fill the tank to the top. (see fig.)
– Do not use premixed two-stroke oils, oils for outboard engines
or normal engine oil to prepare the mixture.
– Do not use gasoline and oil mixtures that are older than one
week. The lubrication properties of some two-stroke oils can
deteriorate very rapidly.
