IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Your kart will provide you with many years of use and pleasure. Providing you take responsibility for your
own safety and that of any one else using your kart or near to the kart when it is being used and understand
the challenges you can meet while driving.
There is much that you can do to protect yourself while operating your kart. You will find many helpful
recommendations throughout this manual. The following are a few that we consider to be the most
important.
Follow the Age Recommendation
The kart should not be driven by anyone under the age of 16.
Always Wear a Helmet
It's a proven fact: helmets significantly reduce the number and severity of head injuries. Always wear an
approved motorcycle helmet. We also recommend that you wear eye protection, sturdy boots, gloves, and
other protective gear.
Drive Off-Road Only
Your kart is designed and manufactured for off-road use only. The tires are not made for use on
pavements, and the kart does not have turn signals and other features required for use on public roads. If
you need to cross a paved or public road, get off and walk your kart across.
Take Time to Learn & Practice
Even if you have driven other karts, take time to become familiar with how this kart works and handles.
Practice in a safe area until you build your skills and get accustomed to this kart's size and weight.
Because many accidents involve inexperienced or untrained drivers, we urge all drivers to take a training
course. Check with your dealer for more information on training courses.
Be Alert for Off-Road Hazards
The terrain can present a variety of challenges when you drive off-road. Continually "read" the terrain for
unexpected turns, drop-offs, rocks, ruts, and other hazards. Always keep your speed low enough to allow
time to see and react to hazards.
