C.MAINTENANCE TIPS
1. Axles & Axle Sleeves
Check axles and axle sleeves every six months to make sure they are tight. Loose sleeves will damage the camber tube and will affect performance.
2. Tire Air Pressure
Check air pressure in pneumatic tires at least ONCE A WEEK. The wheel locks will not grip properly if you fail to maintain the air pressure shown on tire sidewall.
D. CLEANING
1.Bead Finish
To remove scuffs and scratches, use ScotchBrite® pad to buff lightly.
2.Axles and Moving Parts
a.Clean around axles and moving parts WEEKLY with a slightly damp (not wet) cloth.
b.Wipe off or blow away any fluff, dust, or dirt on axles or moving parts.
