Check electrical system: Inspect all electrical connections and cables and replace any which are damaged or corroded. Spray a good quality water inhibitor onto exposed connections to prevent moisture ingress.
Check rear wheel alignment: To prevent excessive tyre wear and ensure safe machine operation, the rear wheels must be correctly aligned to ‘toe - in’ by 3 - 8mm.
Set the rear wheels in the straight ahead position. Measure and compare the distance between the front sidewalls and the rear sidewalls at the wheel centre height. The distance between the front sidewalls must be set 3 - 8mm less than the distance between the rear sidewalls.

To adjust the alignment of the rear wheels, first back off the left hand and right hand locknuts on the track rod assembly. (Left hand locknut is a left hand thread). Rotate the track rod to achieve the correct ‘toe - in’ as described above and tighten the locknuts securely.
