Tires - Intimidator GC 1K Owner's Manual

Brake Fluid
Inspect the brake fluid level before each operation. Always keep the fluid level
between the minimum and maximum fill line on the reservoir. Change the brake
fluid either every two years, or any time the fluid becomes contaminated. To
change the brake fluid:
1. Ensure that the vehicle is safely parked on a flat surface.
2. Inspect the brake fluid level at the reservoir located in the driver's side
wheel well. The level should be between the MAX and MIN indicator lines.
3. If the fluid level is low, remove the cap until it falls between the indicators.
4. Reinstall the cap.
5. Apply the brake forcefully for a few seconds and inspect for fluid leakage
around the fittings.
Brake Pressure Switch and Safety Switch
For safety, the brake must be applied to start the Intimidator. The brake pressure
switch is located on the master cylinder.
Brake Inspection
To inspect the brake system:
1. Check all hoses and fittings for fluid leaks.
2. Check the brake pedal for excessive travel or a spongy feel.
3. Check the friction pads for wear, damage and looseness.
4. Inspect the brake disc spline and pad wear surface for excessive wear.
5. Change pads when worn to 3/64" (1 mm)
Tires
Danger:
 Installation of non-standard tires, use of oversized tires, or use of different
tread patterns can change or impair the handling of the vehicle and result in
severe injury.
Tire construction characteristics and inflation pressure can greatly influence
vehicle handling. Intimidator recommends that you replace tires with standard
OEM tires. It is also important that all tires on the machine are of the same type
and height, inflated to the recommended pressure.
Tire Tread Depth
Replace your tires when the tread depth is worn to 1/8".
Lug Nuts
Torque lug nuts to 65 ft/lb.
