MOTOCROSS BIKE
TIRE INFLATION PROCEDURE:
Recommended tire pressure is 25 PSI.
NEVER inflate the tires above 30 PSI.
WARNING: Tire inflation must be done
ONLY BY AN ADULT. Tires should be inflated with a standard “bicycle” type pump.
Inflation at an automobile service station
can easily result in over inflation of the
tires. Over inflation of the tires can
result in serious injury or even death.
Tires MUST be at the proper inflation
to achieve best handling characteristics
and control. Over inflation will make
the tires “bulge” outward. This will cause
premature wear of the tire. Under inflation
will cause the tire to look flat on the
ground. This will result in slow running
speeds and bad handling. Make sure the
tires are properly inflated to get the best
performance from your vehicle.
Remove the key from the lock before inflating tires.
To inflate the tires, unscrew the valve cap
from the valve stem and attach the bicycle

TIRE REPAIR:
WARNING: Inspect tires and wheels
regularly. In the event that a tire should
consistently lose air pressure, the tires
can be repaired at a local bicycle repair
shop. The tires have an inner tube construction.
When the tire tread is worn to the point
where the grooves are difficult to see,
replace the tire(s) immediately.
If the tire tread shows uneven wear, check
the axle to make sure the wheel is loaded
evenly and correctly. Uneven wear may be
a sign of uneven loading.
Should the wheels become bent or
cracked replace immediately to avoid
breakage resulting in potential injury.

CIRCUIT BREAKER:
IMPORTANT:
Circuit breaker information and reset:
Your MINIMOTOTMMOTOCROSS BIKE has a
built-in circuit breaker. This is located near
the Charging port (F ig. 31)
The circuit breaker shuts the electrical
power down if it detects too much current being used. This protects the
electrical components from extreme
abuse. The circuit breaker may trip if
the vehicle is going up a steep hill, has
too heavy a load, or the wheels are
blocked for some reason.
THE MOTOCROSS BIKE WILL COMPLETELY
SHUT DOWN WHEN THE POWER OVERLOADS. Check to see if the black button
in the center of the circuit breaker has
"popped up". To reset the circuit breaker,
wait about 10 seconds for it to cool down.
Turn the key off. Press the black button
down to reset. When reset the button
stays down. If the button does not stay
down, wait until it has cooled down
enough.
Once the circuit breaker has been reset,
turn the key to the ‘on’ position and
resume riding as normal.
IF YOU LOSE THE KEYS:
NOTE: Replacement keys can be ordered
from the Minimoto Service Center for a
fee. You can also have your key duplicated at any key shop or kiosk. It is a good
idea to store an extra key in a safe place.
