HOW TO OPERATE THE CRAZY CART
Before you ride this exciting new product, take the time to learn about how it moves the way it moves. Start out
slowly. With practice and care, you must familiarize yourself with these riding hints and tips so that your experiences
with the Crazy Cart will allow you to maximize fun while keeping in control.
Never turn the Power Switch to ON before sitting down in the driver's seat of
the Crazy Cart. By getting yourself situated before turning the power ON, you
won't risk losing your balance by pushing the accelerator pedal while standing
as you get into (or out of) the Crazy Cart. Always turn the Power Switch to
OFF before exiting the Crazy Cart.

these motions and adds even tighter turning possibilities through the fully rotational center motor and an adjustable
angling ability for the rear caster wheels. Practice with these Crazy Cart characteristics can lead to amazing fun, and
the importance of exercising caution and common sense when riding is – as with all moving products – important for
every rider.
Accelerator Pedal
The Crazy Cart has a foot pedal accelerator that controls the cart's speed. This variable speed accelerator allows you
to drive the cart at a range of speeds from 0-19 KMH (0-12 MPH), depending on how much it is depressed. This ability
to dynamically speed up and slow down is a key to controlled drifting. All stopping should be preceded by releasing
any pressure on the accelerator pedal.
Steering Wheel
The Crazy Cart's steering wheel is different from a normal car or cart in a number of ways. The most important thing to
remember about the Crazy Cart's steering wheel is that the arrow on it points in the direction where the cart is going
to travel, regardless of how the rest of the cart is oriented. Simply point the arrow where you want the cart to go
(using the Drift Bar can change how the back of the Crazy Cart follows, as described below).
The Crazy Cart's steering wheel is able to rotate more than 180° in each direction. The steering wheel has a "hard
stop" when it has reached the limit of its turning – it won't keep going around all the way, but by turning fully one
direction or fully the other direction, you can ride the Crazy Cart backwards - and by turning at or near 90° the Crazy
Cart can go in a very, very tight circle (be careful to avoid losing control by turning so much as to risk becoming dizzy).
The steering configuration of the Crazy Cart's integrated drive and steering mechanism is similar to what some might
call "shopping cart" design. It has no self-correcting camber or castering features (meaning the steering tube goes
straight up and down so the wheel doesn't "align" itself on its own). Such steering might, in certain circumstances,
shimmy or vibrate a little -- this is normal. Usually it is the result of an uncoordinated or adverse control condition. If
you feel a shimmy in the steering, a change of direction ("counter-steering") and/or speed change helps re-establish
smooth control.

IMPORTANT: Always select
a riding area that is level, smooth,
dry, and completely free of traffic
or obstacles. DO NOT RIDE
AROUND CARS!
Riding Tip: Learning when to
push and when to let off of the
accelerator pedal will improve your
ability to do spins, drifts, and tricks
smoothly. The best way to learn
the Crazy Cart's abilities is to try
things at low speed.
WARNING: Excessive
duration or speed in spins can lead
to loss of balance, loss of control
and tipping. Keeping one's limbs
and head tucked in tight to the
center of the Crazy Cart can reduce
risks of tipping over because
ergonomic forces can increase risk
of tipping if the body is leaning
outwards and/or the spinning
speed accelerates too greatly.
Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal if spinning becomes too fast
to control, do not try to accelerate
out of a spin. The Crazy Cart may
accelerate faster when lighter
riders are on it, which is one
reason the minimum recommended
age is 9. Be safety conscious!
