How To Operate The Crazy Cart - Razor Crazy Cart Owner's Manual

HOW TO OPERATE THE CRAZY CART

Drift Bar for Adjustable Rear Casters
The rear wheels on the Crazy Cart are mounted on casters, like RipStik wheels. By altering the angle of the support for
these wheels, the Crazy Cart can either "track" in the same direction as the drive wheel is going or allow the rear end
to "drift" in response to turning or acceleration forces. The drift bar allows control between the two driving modes:
normal mode for straight tracking (down or default) and Crazy Cart mode for drifting (when the drift bar is pulled up).
When the bar is in the down position, the Crazy Cart will track in-line with the front wheel like a traditional vehicle. As
the drift bar is raised, it changes the angle of the rear casters and allows the rear of the cart to drift. The more the bar
is raised, the easier the cart drifts. When the bar is all the way up, the casters are in "Crazy Cart mode."
Normal Mode
(Default)
In Crazy Cart mode, the frame is able to rotate any direction, regardless of the direction of travel. In the Crazy Cart
mode it is possible to drive in a straight line with the frame oriented any direction, including backwards and sideways.
The best use of the Cart involves careful coordination of the steering, the drift bar, and the accelerator. The majority
of spins and drifts that can be done in the Crazy Cart are accomplished by careful accelerator control. Learning when
to add or reduce power is the key to smoothly connecting tricks. Smooth riding also increases the run time between
charges. When first getting oriented with the Crazy Cart, it is highly recommended that riders carefully apply the
accelerator and take time to get familiar with the variable effects of the drift bar and steering at low speeds.
Stopping the Crazy Cart
While there is no brake on the Crazy Cart, removing your foot from the accelerator will slow the cart down as a result
of friction in the drive train. To stop the cart, take your foot off of the accelerator and turn the steering wheel to either
side. Removing your foot from the accelerator and turning the steering wheel will result in the Crazy Cart spinning or
drifting in a circle and slowing to a stop. The size of the circle the cart will spin in depends on how much, if any, the
drift bar is pulled up. The higher the drift bar is, the tighter the circle the cart will spin in.
By turning the steering wheel 90° and taking your foot off the pedal, the rider can immediately arrest forward motion
and instead turn away. In this way, the Crazy Cart can avoid collisions and evade things otherwise in its path.
For your safety, take the time to get familiar and comfortable with various combinations of throttle, steering, and drift
bar applications to learn how to slow down and how using the drift bar affects stopping at slow speeds. Practice
these skills for maximum rider safety.
WARNING: Recognize that these specialized riding features affect how the Crazy Cart functions and require
extra caution and attention to safe riding conditions and practices. Read and review the Riding Warnings, and be extra
careful with this Crazy Cart to avoid traffic, obstacles and downhill environments. This is not a "bumper car" and is not
designed to engage in collisions, jumping activities or for use on surfaces other than hardened, smooth, flat and dry
areas.

Riding Tip: With the steering
wheel at 90°, the Crazy Cart will
move in a circle using the rear
inside caster as the "pivot point"
if the drift bar is down -- but will
rotate around its center if the drift
bar is fully raised.
