The throttle cable should be adjusted so there is 2mm, (1/8”) free travel at the lever before the throttle starts to open.

Front and Rear Brakes

This vehicle is equipped with dual front hydraulic Disc brakes and a rear hydraulic disc brake

The front brakes are controlled by the long brake lever on the right-handle bar.

The rear brake is controlled by foot peddle located in the right foot well of the unit.

The rear brake is the primary stopping brake on your vehicle. Using the rear brake to stop your vehicle will prevent steering control loss.

Use your front and rear brakes in combination to control your speed while descending a grade. Use caution not to apply too much pressure to your front brakes so that the wheels lock up, stop turning, and causing a loss of steering control. If the front wheels lock up, and stop turning, lightly reduce the pressure on the front brake lever until they unlock and start to turn.

Parking Brake

The front brake, shown in the picture below, is located on the right hand side of the handle bar. The parking brake is engaged by moving the lever to the right and disengaged when by moving the leer to the left.

The parking brake should be engaged when ever the unit is not in operation and when starting the unit.

Fuel Tank

The fuel tank fill cap is located on top of the unit just ahead of the seat. The cap contains a vent to prevent a vacuum from forming in the tank as fuel is used. The vent tube must be attached to the cap and inserted in the vent tube holder

hole while operating the unit. The fuel cap vent and vent tube must be clean and clear of obstructions for the unit to operate normally. You can check the vent and vent tube by blowing air through the tube. If you can not blow through the vent tube and cap you must clean the vent and tube or replace them.

Every time you refuel your unit, check the rubber seal inside the cap for cuts, tears and dirt. Clean or replace the seal if it becomes worn or torn.

The seal must be in good condition to insure a proper seal of the cap to the tank to prevent fuel spills. DO NOT allow dirt or other debris to enter the tank when refueling.

Replace the cap if damaged or if it will not seal to the tank.
