WARNING:
PARENTAL AND ADULT RESPONSIBILITY AND
SUPERVISION NECESSARY: Because products, like the DXT Drift Trike,
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 CHILD,
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
child, and different age recommendations are found within this category
of product which are intended to reflect the nature of the hazards and the
expected mental or physical ability, or both, of a child to cope with the
hazards.
Razor recommends that the DXT Drift Trike be ridden only
by riders aged 14 and up.
• Always wear safety equipment, such as helmet, wrist guards, gloves, knee
pads and elbow pads. Recognize that wrist guards may impair your ability to
properly grip the handlebars. Always wear a helmet when riding your drift
trike and keep the chinstrap securely buckled.
• Always wear shoes.
• 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.
• This drift trike was manufactured for performance and durability, but it
is not impervious to damage. Trick riding can overstress or damage any
product, including this drift trike, and the rider assumes all risks associated
with high stress activity.
• Ride on smooth, paved surfaces away from motor vehicles and other
hazards; riding on open public roads is dangerous.
• Avoid streets and surfaces with water, sand, gravel, dirt, leaves and
other debris.
• Loose or wet surfaces may further enhance risks when using this product
including braking.
• Install safety flag to increase visibility to others when riding.
• Never hitch a ride with another vehicle
• Do not ride at night or in reduced visibility conditions.
• Do not lean backwards when standing/riding on rear wing.
• Sudden braking may result in being thrown forward.
• Use extra caution on steep or long hills as the rider can gain speed quickly.
Avoid excessive speeds as risks of loss of control, or of collisions or falls,
will be greater.
• Practice and develop drifting skills on large flat, smooth surfaces away from
motor vehicles and other hazards.
• Check and obey all local traffic laws and regulations.
• Watch out for pedestrians.
• Check and secure all fasteners before every ride.
• Replace worn or broken parts immediately.
• Do not exceed 198 lb (90 kg) total weight on the drift trike.
• Do not allow children under age fourteen (14) to use the drift trike.
• Rider weight does not necessarily mean rider’s size is appropriate to fit or
maintain control of the drift trike.
ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
Adult supervision is recommended. Drift trikes are meant to be used only in
controlled environments free of potential traffic hazards. Do not allow rider
to ride a drift trike in any areas where vehicle traffic is present. Rider must
maintain a hold of the handlebars at all times. Never allow more than one
rider at a time to ride a drift trike. Never use near steps, sloped driveways,
hills, roadways, alleys or swimming pool areas. Do not ride a drift trike in wet
weather. Drift trikes are intended for use on solid, clean and dry surfaces such
as pavement or level ground without loose debris such as rocks or gravel. Wet,
slick or uneven and rough surfaces may impair braking traction, and contribute
to possible accidents. Do not ride a drift trike in mud, ice, puddles or water.
Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated with downhill rides. Never risk
damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring by use of a drift trike indoors. Do
not ride at night or when visibility is impaired.
Aggressive riding reduces your ability to maneuver and control. Take necessary
precautions and practice in a safe area.
You will see people on TV and videos doing tricks or stunts. These are people
who have been practicing a long time and accept the risks of trick riding
activity. Do not assume that you can attempt to do the same tricks without
great risk.
PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always ensure rider is wearing proper protective equipment, such as an
approved safety helmet. A helmet may be legally required by local law or
regulation in your area. Always wear shoes and keep shoelaces tied and out
of the way of the wheels. Never ride barefooted or in sandals. Long pants are
recommended and may reduce risk of abrasion if legs come in contact with
wheels when riding.
WARNING:
ALWAYS INSPECT DRIFT TRIKE PRIOR TO RIDING.
Properly inspecting and maintaining your drift trike can reduce the risk of injury.
Always inspect your drift trike before riding and regularly maintain it.
WARNING:
CHECK LOCAL LAWS REGARDING USE. Check local laws
and regulations to see where and how you may use your drift trike legally. In
many states and local areas riders are required BY LAW to wear a helmet.
Check local laws and regulations regarding laws governing helmet use and
drift trike operation in your area.
FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE WARNINGS
FURTHER INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE AT YOUR OWN
RISK AND WITH APPROPRIATE AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE
OPERATION. USE CAUTION.

CONTENTS
WARNING:
The DXT Drift Trike is not the same as an “ordinary” tricycle and therefore may require greater skill to ride than an ordinary tricycle.
It is not for young children. The DXT is designed to allow movement forward and extreme sideways drifting. Using this product requires open space, free of
other traffic or obstacles, and it is best ridden by a practiced rider aware of the product’s capabilities and willing to accept risks associated with drifts and
fast moving actions.
Riding any product can be a hazardous activity. Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the manufacturer. Like other products, the DXT
Drift Trike 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.
