GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK HOW TO LINK TWO MACHINES ATV TRACK allows you to connect two machines so that two players can compete directly. To do this the following steps should be taken: 1. Make sure that the connection cable is correctly plugged into both machines.
Make sure there is plenty of room for maintenance to be carried out. At least 3 metres should be left free between the machine itself and other objects (e.g. adjacent machines, walls, etc.). • When parts needs replacing, use only those approved by Gaelco S.A. and which meet the relevant specifications.
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.3 BRAKE LIGHT When the brake light needs replacing, remove the plastic cover as shown in the diagram. Unplug the connectors before pulling. Bulb: 24V/5W 9.4 HANDLEBAR MECHANISM Access the handlebar mechanism by removing the screws which hold the two plastic covering pieces.
Page 36
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.4.1 ADJUSTING THE CHAIN TENSION Adjust the chain tension as follows: 1) Loosen the screws holding the tensing roller shafts (as shown in the drawing). Half a turn is enough. 2) Then, adjust the chain tension by tightening the side screws. To check whether the chain is properly tensed: the nylon rollers should press tightly enough against the chain to be difficult to turn by hand but still sufficiently loose to be able to turn despite the friction.
Page 37
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK Checking the rollers 3) Tighten the top screws and re-check the pressure of the rollers against the chain. If they cannot be turned by hand, they are pressing too hard against the chain. If this is the case, repeat the process again, this time loosening the side screws a little.
Page 38
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.4.2 CHANGING THE BRAKE CABLES To change the brake cable, proceed as follows: 1) To work more easily, disassemble the handlebar following the procedure described in the first paragraph of this chapter (page 37) 2) Remove the protective rubber covers from the brake levers.

Page 40
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 6) Loosen the nuts which hold the damaged brake cable with the help of the two 12mm spans, releasing the cable lever which operates the micro-switch. 7) The cables can then be lifted out of their plastic cupola by pulling them upwards.
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.5 EMERGENCY AND SAFETY STOPS The movement system includes two stop devices - an emergency one and a safety one. The emergency stop is operated by a red knob on top of the fuel tank. The safety stop operates when the player ceases pressing on either of the bike foot rests.
Page 42
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.5.1 EMERGENCY STOP CIRCUIT To check the emergency stop circuit, check the CPU IN /OUT screen in Test Mode and SELECT THE LINE "Emergency Stop" : if the red knob is in the rest position (circuit closed, movement possible), the message will read ON.

GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.6 POSITION OF THE BRAKE LEVERS AND THE THROTTLE The brake levers must be assemble so that they abut the curve of the handlebar and are positioned as far as possible from the ends of the handlebar.
Page 45
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 9.7 DISASSEMBLING AND ASSEMBLING THE THROTTLE Follow the procedure below when disassembling the throttle (e.g. when checking the potentiometer, etc.): 1) The first step is to loosen the grub screw on the top cover (see line drawing). There is a seating for the grub screw in the handlebar tube.
Page 46
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 3) To replace the covers and the throttle, simply follow the reverse procedure: first, attach the bracket in the seating for the upper cover (see illustration), then tighten up the screws which hold both covers in place (the assembly can still be turned at this juncture), finally find the position (see Section 9.6) in which the grub screw seats back into the tube.
Page 47
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK To check the potentiometer, check the Accelerator option from the INPUT /OUTPUT screen and check the values are as follows: 1) Throttle (right forward) Reading 00(006) The figure in brackets may vary between 001 and 006.
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 3) Push the hood upward (i.e. towards the upper part of the column). This frees a metal catch located beneath the mobile platform, allowing the hood to be folded down flat. 9.10 CHECKING POSITION POTENTIOMETERS If the movement system is not working properly, the position potentiometer (ATV-305) should be checked and changed if necessary.
GAELCO - ATV QUADS TRACK 2) Viewing the motors from above, when the shafts are in the position indicated, check that the left shaft woodruff key is lined up with the black line on the silicon tube and that the right shaft woodruff key is lined up with the red line on the tube.
