STORAGE

If the Go-Kart is left unused for an
extended period of time proper
storage maintenance is required.
1. Wash Go-Kart thoroughly, then wax
painted parts with a non abrasive
auto wax. Coat vinyl seat and rubber
parts with a vinyl/rubber protectant.
Note: Keep water away from air
intake and muffler outlet while
washing to avoid water from entering
the engine and/or components.
2. Drain carburetor by placing fuel
valve (1) to the off (left) position and
opening the drain screw (2). Allow
all fuel to drain from the carburetor.
Once fuel is drained,
re-tighten drain screw (2).
Note: Make sure to drain fuel in a
proper storage container.
3. Fill fuel tank to full with gasoline
mixed with fuel stabilizer as
recommended by the fuel stabilizer
manufacture. Note: Fuel stabilizer
can be purchased at most motorcycle
shops and auto parts stores.
4. Remove spark plug and poor 1
tablespoon of motor oil in the spark
plug hole. Re-install spark plug.
5. Place the starter switch to the off
position and pull the start recoil cord
a few times. This is to coat the inside
cylinder head with oil.
6. Fill tires with correct air pressure.
7. If possible, store Go-Kart in a shed
or garage with a cover to protect from
dust, dirt and humidity. If the Go-Kart
must be stored outdoors, cover com-
pletely with a good waterproof cover.
