A. Know Your Scooter/Kart: Familiarize yourself with the scooter before you ride. Check the
controls. Ride very cautiously until you become familiar with the way the scooter/kart handles. Take
turns slowly and give yourself extra stopping distance.
B. Ride Within Your Abilities: To control your scooter, you need to keep it upright and make it go
where you want it to go. This section cannot teach you how to control direction, speed or balance.
Only a lot of practice will do that. Below are a few things to help you.
C. Body Position: Stand firm but relaxed. Keep weight between the wheels. Don’t stand too close to
the front or lean too far back. Shift your weight to the rear when applying brakes, and lean towards the
front when accelerating. Keep feet apart for more stability.
D. Turning: New riders tend to have more trouble turning than experienced riders do. The only way to
make good safe turns is to practice. Always approach turns very carefully.
E. Braking: Front brakes provide most of your stopping power, but you will need to learn to adjust
your center of gravity to maintain stability. Again, practice this at a safe speed until you are comfort-
able with this action.
F. Areas to Ride: Ride in a safe place free of cars in an area which will not disturb other people or
animals and has a clean dry surface.
2.4) Rules to Scoot By:
· Always wear your safety gear
· Never ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs
· Learn the local laws and regulations
· Ride defensively
· Wear bright colored and/or reflective clothing
· Never ride your scooter/kart at night or in conditions of poor visibility.
· Observe and yield the right of way
· Do not dart out of driveways or from between parked cars
· Stop at all stop signs/lights
· Be careful when checking traffic and don’t swerve when looking over your shoulder
· Always go with traffic flow and keep to the far side of the road
· Never ride on sidewalks
· Avoid riding in bad weather or when visibility is obscured
· Do not do stunts, wheelies or jumps. They will increase your chances of injury and damage to your
scooter/kart.
· You are sharing roads, trails and riding areas with others. Respect their rights, and be tolerant if
they inconvenience you.
· Always yield right of way to pedestrians and animals. Ride in a way that does not frighten or
endanger them, and avoid riding near them whenever possible.
· Keep your speed consistent with the conditions, and keep in mind that speed has a direct relation to
control as well as component stress.
· Never carry passengers.
· Never carry anything that can obstruct vision, or control of your scooter.
· Everyone must be responsible for the environment, ride accordingly.
2.5) Stunts, Wheelies, or Jumps: These stunts can be fun, but it puts incredible stress on every-
thing. Riders who insist on jumping risk serious damage to their scooter/kart and themselves.
2.6) Wet Weather Riding: Riding in wet conditions is not recommended.
WARNING: Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, for riders and others.
The risk of accident dramatically increases in wet conditions and should be avoided.
Check the frame, fork, and “t” handle, particularly in areas around all tube joints for any deep
scratches, cracks, or discoloration. These are signs of stress-caused “fatigue” or overloading and
indicate that a part is at the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced.
Check to make sure that all parts and accessories are still secure, tighten any which are not.
Check drive components for wear adjust or replace if necessary. If your scooter is fitted with a
chain drive, clean and oil chain and check chain tension.
5. As required: If any part fails your Mechanical Safety Check (see section 2.2) have those
parts serviced immediately.
6. Every 25 to 50 hours: Take your Go-Ped® to an authorized Go-Ped® dealer for a complete
check up. Idle speed, kill switch, brakes, steering, air-cleaner, spark plug (gap), cylinder, muffler
and bolts, bearings, drive components, and crankshaft should all be looked at and adjusted,
replaced or repaired as necessary.
8.2 Special Engine Maintenance:
There are a few things you can do to keep your Go-Ped® engine at its best performance and
cleanest for the environment.
WARNING: Due to High operating temperatures, make sure that the engine has
stopped and is cool before performing any service to the machine.
A. Air Filter: If the air filter is dirty, this will reduce the engine performance. Clean the Air Filter
every 4-6 hours of riding. Check and clean the element in warm, soapy water as required. Dry
completely before installing. If the element is broken or shrunk, replace with a new one.
B. Fuel Filter: When the engine runs short of fuel supply, check the fuel cap
and the fuel filter for blockage.
C. Spark Plug: Starting failure and misfiring are often caused by a fouled
spark plug. Clean the spark plug and check that the plug gap is in the correct
range (Correct plug gap is .024 - .026”). For a replacement plug, always use
the correct type for your motor.
CAUTION: Using any spark plug other than those designated by the manufacture
of the engine may result in engine failing to operate properly or cause engine
damage. To install the spark plug, first turn the plug until it is finger tight, then
tighten at a quarter turn more with a socket wrench. (87-104 in-lbs torque)
D. Things to remember: Keep air-intake clean of debris and do not touch the muffler or cylinder.
These parts get extremely hot from operation, and remain hot for a short time after the equipment is
turned off.
WARNING: Periodically inspect the muffler for loose fasteners, any damage, or
corrosion. If any sign of exhaust leakage is found, stop using the machine and
have it repaired immediately. Note that failing to do so may result in the engine
catching on fire.
