PRE-RIDE INSPECTION
WARNING –
Perform this pre-ride inspection everyday before riding the
vehicle. If not performed, serious damage to vehicle and
personal injury may result.
1.
Engine Oil Level
– Add oil if required. Check for leaks. Tighten filler cap securely.
2.
Fuel Level
– Add fuel if necessary. Do not overfill (no fuel in filler neck). Replace cap tightly. Check
for leaks. Do not mix oil with gas. Only refuel when engine is off and cool.
3.
Brakes
– Perform a Brake Test: Sit in the vehicle with the brake actuated by pressing on the brake
pedal. Start the engine with the ignition switch on. Increase the engine RPM gradually to ensure that
the brake is effective. Do not operate this Fun-Kart unless the brake is working properly.
4.
Tires
– Check conditions and pressure.
5.
Drive Chain
– Check condition, tension, lubricate as necessary.
6.
Throttle
– Check for smooth operation. Assure throttle “snaps” back to idle. Also, check for frayed
cable or damaged able conduit. If either condition exists replace the cable assembly before riding.
7.
Stop Switch
– Perform this stop switch test. While the engine is running, move the steering column
remote stop switch to the “OFF” position. If this does not stop the engine, move the engine remote
switch to the “OFF” position. If the engine is not equipped with an engine remote switch, pull the
spark plug wire. Check to insure that the stop switch wire is attached to the terminal on the engine.
Do not operate this vehicle with a stop switch that is not functioning properly.
8.
All Nuts, Bolts, and Fasteners
– Check wheels to insure that all axle nuts and lug nuts are tightened
properly. Check and tighten all other fasteners as necessary. Regularly check set screws on
sprockets and drum.

Guards
– Ensure all protective guards are in place.
Never remove the chain guard, or clutch
guard.
Each of these covers have a protective purpose, if removed it could endanger the personal
safety of the operator or passenger.
