SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The rst rule in safe riding is to use common sense. A Hover-1 Kart is vulnerable; it cannot protect you in a crash, against impact, or loss of control. A Hover-1 Go-Kart can tip over sideways or pitch you over the front wheel. It moves faster than a typical scooter. This section is a guide on safe riding practices for operation. Make sure you are
using your Hover-1 Go-Kart properly.
Different localities and countries have different laws governing riding on public roads, and you should check with local officials to ensure you are complying with these laws.
Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders who do not follow these regulations.
- For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards. In the event of an accident, a helmet can protect you from serious injury and in some cases, even death.
- Obey all local laws, traffic signals, pedestrian crosswalks, etc.
- If riding with friends and multiple Hover-1 Go-Karts, ride single le in a straight line.
- Have a satisfactory signaling device (bell, horn, etc.) to warn drivers and pedestrians of your approach.
- Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
- Give pedestrians the right of way.
- Do not ride too close to pedestrians and alert them if you intend to pass them from behind.
- Slow down at all street intersections and look to the left and right before crossing.
- Always use proper hand signals for turning and stopping. Give signals 100ft before stopping or turning and always return both hands to the handlebars before stopping or turning.
- Watch for cars pulling out into traffic and for the sudden opening of car doors.
- Avoid potholes, drainage grates, or other hazards.
- Cross railroad tracks at a right angle.
- Do not ride on soft road edges, gravel, sand, and uneven surfaces. Ride slowly and avoid quick turns.
- Never hitch onto other vehicles.
- Do not “stunt” ride or race in traic.
- Do not weave in and out of traic or swerve from side to side.
- A crash can put extraordinary stress on Hover-1 Go-Kart components, possibly causing them to fatigue prematurely or break on impact. Components suffering from stress fatigue can fail suddenly, causing loss of control or serious injury.
