When the brake is fully applied there should be a
minimum clearance of ½" of clearance between
the lever and the handle bar grip. If this clearance
is less that ½" your brakes should be adjusted
After riding your unit, be sure to clean any build
up of mud, sand and dirt from the brake cable
and adjuster to prevent rust and corrosion that
could cause cable failure.
Drive Chain
The drive chain will stretch with use and will
require periodic adjustments. To check the chain
tension, remove the chain guard and measure the
slack.
The amount of slack in the chain should not
exceed 10-20mm or ¼" - ½".
Inspect the drive and axle sprockets for worn,
damaged or broken teeth. Replace as needed.
Inspect the chain links for damaged, worn or loose
rivets. Repair or replace as needed.
Chain Slack Adjustment
Loosen the axle position lock bolt slightly and turn
the chain adjuster nut to take up the excess slack in
the chain. Once the chain has been adjusted to the
proper tension retighten the axle position locking bolt.
The chain should be kept well lubricated to prevent
excess wear and premature failure. We recommend
that you lubricate the chain every 15 hours of
operation, or more frequently if needed, with a high
quality chain lubricant.
Throttle Lever
The throttle lever is located beside the right-
handlebar grip and is operated by using the right-
hand thumb. The lever is spring loaded and will
return to the idle position when you remove your
thumb from the lever. To accelerate the unit, simply
press the lever forward to open the throttle slide in
the carburetor. To slow the unit, reduce the pressure
on the lever or remove your thumb and the throttle
will return to the idle position automatically.
Adjusting the throttle
The cable should be adjusted to allow for ⅛" free
travel before the throttle engages the carburetor
throttle slide. To adjust the cable's free travel, loosen
the locking nut of the cable adjuster, and turn the
adjuster wheel until there is ⅛" free travel in the
