B. Tires and Wheels: Check that pneumatic tires are properly inflated. Refer to the sidewall of the
tire for recommended PSI. Checking PSI using a tire pressure gauge is recommended but you can
also bounce your weight on the scooter and compare tire deflection to how it looks when you know
the tires are properly inflated. Spin the wheels and check that the tires have not yet reached the wear
marks on the tires, have ripped, torn, or show any signs of distress and replace as necessary. Make
sure the wheels spin freely and true. If wheels wobble, rub the brakes then take it to a qualified
authorized Go-Ped® dealer for adjustments. If you have the Sport, S25™, X25™, X-Ped®, or Super
X-Ped™ check the rear wheel adjustment (section 9.3).
C. Brakes: Squeeze the brake levers and check that they are getting proper contact with the tire or
disc (depending on model). Full braking force is applied when you squeeze the lever and the lever
cannot touch the handle bar or grip. The brakes should not interfere with the rotation of the wheel
when not applied. Make sure that the brake caliper gets full contact with the rubber tire or disc
(depending on model). Make sure that all brake surfaces are clean and free of debris. Do not ride the
scooter until the brakes are properly adjusted.
WARNING: Never attempt to ride your vehicle without properly adjusted brakes.
D. Control levers and cables: Familiarize yourself with the levers and controls. Squeeze and or
twist all levers/controls and make sure they are functioning properly. If they stick, move at the base,
or do not get full range of motion, make adjustments as necessary or take to an authorized Go-Ped®
dealer for service. Do not ride the scooter until the control levers and cables are properly adjusted.
Control levers are originally positioned where they work best for most people. The angle of the
controls can be changed to better suit you. Ask your dealer to show you how, or learn how to make
the adjustments yourself.
WARNING: Never attempt to ride your vehicle without properly adjusted
controls and cables.
E. Engine: Check the idle speed. Your Go-Ped® will go about 2 to 3 miles per hour at idle with
the drive engaged. Make sure that the air filter is clean and clean if necessary.
Due to engine vibration, nuts and bolts can become loose. Make sure that carburetor, muffler,
motor mounts and other fasteners are securely fastened and tighten if necessary.
WARNING: Muffler and exhaust components are hot and you should allow
ample time to allow for cooling before performing any adjustments or
repairs to the motor.
2.3 Scooting Safety
CAUTION: Like most sports, scooting/karting involves risk of injury and damage.
By choosing to ride a scooter/kart you assume the responsibility for that risk. This
makes it extremely important that you know, understand, and practice the rules
of safe and responsible riding.
Scooting can be an environmentally useful, safe and fun way of reducing traffic congestion.
WARNING: Karts are designed for recreational use only! They should never be
used on streets
CAUTION: Modifications to the exhaust or intake will change the noise level of
your scooter/kart which can will disturb others. Making changes or modifications
to your scooter/kart can make your scooter/kart act or perform in a manner that
is unsafe.
Section 9: Adjustment
9.1 Brakes:
Side-pull caliper
Scooters/karts fitted with side-pull calipers operate much like a standard bike side pull caliper brake,
with the exception that the wearing surfaces are incorporated into the tire rather than brake pads.
Fine Adjustment: 1) Loosen the adjustment barrel locknut. 2) Turn the adjustment barrel clockwise if
brake rub against the wheel, and counter clockwise if they are too far away. (Each side should be a 1/
16” to 3/16” spacing between caliper and wheel) 3) Securely tighten the locknut.
Major Adjustment: 1) Loosen the adjusting barrel clockwise until it bottoms out, then back it off 1 1/
2 or 2 turns. 2) Loosen the cable anchor nut. 3) Squeeze the brake arms together and hold them so
the brake remains against the tire (3 hands make a big deference). 4) Pull out all the slack on the
cable using pliers. While maintaining cable tension with the pliers and still squeezing the brake arms
together, tighten the cable anchor nut.
NOTE: It is not critical to have the both sides of brake calipers strike the wheel at the same time. It is
possible for one side to reach the tire first. The other side will eventually strike the tire and the caliper
will then squeeze the braking surface to slow the Go-Ped®.
If one side of your caliper drags the wheel then adjust by using a 10mm deep socket to loosen the
10mm nut used to attach the brakes from the back side of the calipers. Hold the brakes straight and
retighten in place. This operation is recommended to be performed by an authorized Go-Ped® dealer.
WARNING: The mounting bolt and nut must be securely tightened to maintain
proper braking.
Disc brake caliper
For your scooter fitted with disc brakes. The brake caliper must be replaced when the pads are worn
less then the thickness of a dime.
Adjustment: 1) Adjust the gap between rotor & outside pad with 3mm Allen driver via the center hole
of caliper, turn clockwise to move pad forward and counterclockwise to move pad back. 2)
Adjust gap between rotor & inside pad with 5mm Allen driver via center bolt on back cover, turn
clockwise to move pad forward and counterclockwise to move pad back.
Replacement of worn pads: 1) Remove the caliper from fork using 5mm Allen driver (both
brake lever adjustments barrels need to be screwed in all the way) 2) Use pointed nose pliers or
screwdriver to remove safety clip from pad guide.3) Loosen pad guild screw with 3mm Allen
driver. 4) Remove complete pad assembly with inner plate spring. (Careful not to bend or twist
spring) 5) Fit replacement pad onto spring plate. 6) Insert pad/spring combination into pad slot and
relocate guide screw. 7) Fasten guide screw and push safety clip back into clip gap on guide
screw. 8) Adjust brakes as described in the mechanical safety check section.
Maintenance of disk brake caliper: 1) Keep all surfaces clean and free of oil and debris.
Rear brake
Some models use engine compression/resistance as a brake. The engine cut off switch can be used
to slow and/or stop your scooter that uses the engine as brake. Some have a foot operated brake that
does not require any adjustment. The foot operated brake requires that your rear wheel have proper
tire inflation. Make sure that this brake is operating properly and replace if necessary.
9.2 Control Levers and Cables:
Throttle lever and cable: Make sure the cable is not frayed or kinked in any way. Also check to be
sure that the cable housing ends are securely seated. An adjustment is available at the carburetor
and you can increase or take up slack by screwing or unscrewing the adjustment barrel.
