do so could decrease the life of your cart:
* Check oil color and viscosity. If necessary, do complete oil change including filter replacement.
* Check battery connections. Remove any corrosion and spray with battery terminal protector.

inspection at this point. Note any gashes or other damage not associated with normal wear. Inspect
tread level.

* Front wheel alignment, camber and toe-in check and adjust if necessary. The steering wheel should be
straight.

* Check top for proper connections for safety and security.
* Check primary and secondary drive assemblies for excessive wear or broken springs and repair as
necessary.
* Remove spark plug and inspect and replace as necessary if spark plug shows signs of unusual color or
burning damage, diagnose fuel/air consumption problem.
