properly and safely. Below are items that you will need to care for on a regular basis.
IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS STORE YOUR
JETSON JR.INDOORS AND OUT OF THE WEATHER. THE
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS COVERED BUT SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED
SEALED. WATER CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE POWER TRAIN
AND CREATE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. WATER DAMAGE WILL VOID
YOUR WARRANTY.
STORE INSIDE, OUT OF THE WEATHER
DRIVE CHAIN TENSION
The drive chain transmits power from the motor to the rear wheel. To work properly it
must be lubricated and properly tensioned at all times.
Check the tension on the drive chain by moving it
up and down approximately halfway between the
sprockets. There should be no more than 1/2”
vertical slack in the chain. If the chain seems too
loose, it may be in danger of coming off while
riding.
To adjust the chain tension, follow the steps
outlined bellow:
1. Be sure that the minibike is parked on a flat,
level surface and leaning on the kicksand.
2. Using a 15mm wrench, loosen the rear wheel
axle nuts on each side.
3. After the axle nuts are loosened, use a 10mm
wrench to turn the sprocket side tensioner bolt
clockwise (to tighten) about one turn, then repeat
this process on the other side tensioner bolt.
4. Check the tension on the chain and see if it has
changes enough. If not, repeat steps 3 & 4 until the
proper tension is achieved.
