IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Your Go-Kart will provide you w ith many yearsof service and pleasure. Providing
you take responsibility for yo ur own safety and understand the challenges you can meet
while driving.

There is a lot you can do to protect yourself when you drive. You’ll find many
helpful recommendations throughout this manual. The following are a few that we
consider most important.

Followthe AgeRecommendation

It is strongly recommended that no one under the age of 16 be permitted to drive
this Go-Kart without adult supervision.

Always Wear a Helmet

It’s a proven fact: helmets significantly reduce the number and severity of head
injuries. Always wear an approved motorcycle helmet. We also recommend that you
wear eyeprotection, sturdy boots, gloves, and other protective gear.

TakeTimeto Learn & Practice

Even if you have driven other Go-Kart, take time to become familiar with how this
Go-Kart works and handles. Practice in a safe area until you build your skills and get
accustomed to this Go-Kart’ssiz e and weight.

Because many accidents involve inexperienced or untrained drives, we urge all
drivers to take a training course approved by the Go-Kart Safety Institute. Check with
your dealer for moreinformation on training courses.

BeAlertfor Off-Road Hazards

The terrain can present a variety of challenges when you drive off-road.
Continually “read” the terrain for unexpected turns, drop-offs, rocks, ruts, and other
hazards. Always keep your speed low enough to allow time to see and react to hazards.

DrivewithinYour Limits

Pushing limits is another major cause of Go-Kart accidents. Never drive beyond
your personal abilities or faster than conditions warrant. Remember that alcohol, drugs,
fatigue, and inattention can sig nificantly reduce your ability to make good judgments
and driver safely.

Don’t Drink anddriv e

Alcohol anddriving don’t mix. Even one drink can reduce yourability to respond to
changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with every additional drink. So
don’t drink and drive, and don’t let your friends drink and drive either.

Never run your Go- Kart indoors.

The exhaust from the engine contains a tasteless, odorless and poisonous gas called

carbon monoxide.
