TIRES

Tire Replacement

Your Go-kart has low-pressure tubeless tires. Air is sealed by the contact surfaces of

the inner wheel rim and the tire bead. If the inner wheel rim or tire bead is damaged,

air may leak. Be extremely careful not to damage these sections when replacing

tires.

It is very important to use the proper tools when repairing or replacing tires in order

to protect the tire bead or wheel rims. Have this work done by your authorized

service center or a qualified tire repair station.

When breaking the tire bead loose from the wheel, be extremely careful not to

damage the inner wheel rim surface or the tire bead.

Tubeless Tire Repair

If a leak or flat tire occurs due to a puncture, the tire may be repaired using a

plug type patch. If the damage is from a cut, or if the puncture cannot be repaired

using a plug, the tire should be replaced. When operating your Go-kart in areas

where transportation or service facilities are not readily available, it is strongly

recommended that you bring a plug type repair kit and a tire air pump with you.

Overfilling the air to the tires could be hazardous.

If you put too much air into the tire, may burst, and causing severe injury.

Check the air pressure from time to time while inflating the tire gradually, until the specified

air pressure is obtained.
