WARNING: To prevent dangerous conditions, check the
bolts holding the tank into place before and after each use. After the
tank is securely in place, attach the gas line to the gas valve on the
bottom of the tank. The gas line should run from the engine to the
bottom of the gas tank. The gas valve has three settings: On, Off,
and Reserve. In the On position, the kart will use approximately half
the gas in a full tank before cutting off. The On position requires the
arrow on the indicator switch to be facing up. Switching the tank to
reserve will allow the driver to use the remainder of the gas in the
tank. The reserve position requires the arrow on the indicator switch
to be facing down. The valve should always be switched to the “off”
position when the kart is not in use. The Off position requires the
arrow on the indicator switch to be facing right (at a 90 degree
angle).
Front Bumper
The front bumper attaches at four points on the front of the go-kart
frame. Be sure that the front bumper slides on as shown. Align the
pre-drilled holes in the frame with the pre-drilled holes in the front
bumper. Holding a spacer on each side of the pre-drilled hole (be
sure that the groove in the spacer fits around the tubing), slide a bolt
through the top spacer, through the pre-drilled holes, and through
the bottom spacer. Take the nut and tighten it down on the bolt. Do
NOT over tighten the nut. Repeat this process for the top two points
of contact. The bottom points of contact require inserting a bolt into
each pre-drilled hole. Insert a bolt through the pre-drilled holes in
the frame and into the front bumper. Be sure that the bolts are in-
serted so that the threads stick out the front side of the kart frame.
Tighten the bolts. (See figures below and on the following page)
Gas Tank
The gas tank attaches to the frame at four points above the engine.
Standing behind the kart, locate the pre-drilled holes in the cross
tubing above the engine on the right side. Remove the bolts and
washers from the holes in the tank. Align the pre-drilled holes on the
tank with the pre-drilled holes in the tubing. (See figures below for
proper tank location)
IMPORTANT: When aligning the tank, be sure that the tank valve is
on the right hand side when looking at the tank from the back of the
go-kart. For each of the four holes, place a bolt through the top of
the pre-drilled tubing hole. Below the pre-drilled hole in the tubing,
place a washer, a spring washer, and a nut on the bolt. Tighten the
nut securely on the bolt. Do NOT over-tighten the nuts. Doing so
will cause the rubber spacers to rip.
