MAINTENANCE

CLEANING/ADJUSTING DRIVE CHAIN

The drive chain should be cleaned, lubricated, and inspected

every time you ride the mini bike.

WARNING:

Always inspect the drive chain tension before you ride the

mini bike. Too much slack could allow the drive chain to

come off the sprockets, which could cause an accident

resulting in serious personal injury or cause serious dam-

age to the mini bike.

Cleaning the drive chain:

Wash the drive chain with an approved chain cleaner.

Dry the chain, then lubricate with chain lubricant or the

equivalent.

Adjusting the drive chain:
For proper performance, the drive chain should never have

more than 0.5-0.75 in. (15-20 mm) slack.
NOTE: The chain should be replaced when it reaches its

maximum adjusting limit.
To adjust:

Loosen the rear axle bolt.

Turn the chain adjusting nuts on the left and right sides

to adjust the tension of the chain.

Retighten rear axle bolt. Torque to 37-44 ft. lbs. (50-

60 Nm).

CLUTCH MAINTENANCE

After every 5 hours of use, your clutch will need cleaning and

lubrication. If the clutch becomes too dirty or lacks lubrication,

the clutch will begin to stick, which could cause the mini bike

to move without the throttle being applied.

WARNING:

Failure to perform the clutch maintenance described

below can result in unintended movement of the mini bike

and cause serious personal injury.

To clean and lubricate the clutch:

Turn engine off and allow to cool completely.

Blow through holes in clutch drum using compressed air

to remove any dust and/or particles.

Locate the snap ring on the sprocket at the end of the

clutch. Add a few drops of 30W motor oil in the opening

between the snap ring ends to allow the oil to reach the

bushing located behind the snap ring. Do not allow oil to

get inside the clutch itself.

Push mini bike forward without starting to allow oil to flow

through bearing surface.
