8 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
The motorcycle has been out of use for more than 1 week
Turn the knurled screw on the fuel tap all the way counterclockwise.
Remove the motorcycle from the stand.
Shift the transmission into neutral.
The engine is cold
Press the kick starter lever robustly through its full range.
8.3
Pull the clutch lever, engage 1st gear, release the clutch lever slowly and simultaneously open the throttle
carefully.
8.4
When conditions allow (incline, road situation, etc.), your child can shift into a higher gear. To do so, release
the throttle while simultaneously pulling the clutch lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch lever and
open the throttle.
If the choke function was activated, deactivate it after the engine has warmed up.
After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throttle grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This
will barely reduce the speed, but fuel consumption will be considerably lower.
Your child should always open the throttle only as much as the engine can handle – abruptly opening the
throttle increases fuel consumption.
To shift down, apply the brakes and close the throttle at the same time.

Info
If the motorcycle is unwilling to start, the cause can be old fuel in the float chamber. The flammable ele-
ments of the fuel evaporate after a long time of standing.
If the float chamber is filled with fresh fuel, the engine starts immediately.
Empty the carburetor float chamber.
Fuel can flow from the fuel tank to the carburetor.
Push down the choke lever all the way to the stop.
Info
Do not open the throttle.

Starting off

Info
The plug-in stand must be removed prior to riding.
