Maintaining your MMB80 Mini Bike
Keeping your mini bike in perfect operating condition is absolutely essential to your safety. It is also
the best way to protect your investment, get maximum performance, avoid breakdowns, and have
more fun. To help keep your mini bike well maintained, this section includes a maintenance schedule
for required servicing and step-by-step instructions on how to perform specific maintenance tasks. In
this section you will also find important safety precautions, and tips for keeping your Monster Moto
mini bike looking good.
Careful pre-ride inspections and good maintenance are invaluable. The service intervals in this
section are based on average riding conditions. More frequent service is needed if you subject your
mini bike to severe use, or ride in unusually wet and dusty areas. Frequent checks of the air cleaner
are very important to help you avoid engine damage.
Improperly maintaining this mini bike or failing to correct a problem before you
ride can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed. Always follow the inspection and
maintenance recommendations and schedules in this manual.
Remember, proper maintenance is the responsibility of the owner. Be sure to inspect your mini bike
before each ride and follow the maintenance schedule in this section.
Note to Parents: As a parent, it is up to you to make sure the mini bike is properly maintained and kept
in safe operating condition. For youngsters, learning how to take care of a mini bike and perform basic
maintenance can be an important part of their riding experience. However, if you allow a youngster to
perform or assist in any maintenance task, such as lling the tank with gasoline, you need to provide close
supervision and make sure the task is performed correctly.
Failure to properly follow maintenance instructions and precautions can cause you
to be seriously hurt or killed. Always follow the procedures and precautions in this manual.
Important Safety Precautions
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. This will help eliminate the
following hazards:
1. Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust - Be sure you have adequate ventilation
whenever you operate the engine.
2. Burns from hot mini bike parts - Let the engine and exhaust system cool off before you
touch them.
3. Injury from moving parts - Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so.
Read all instructions before you begin a procedure. Make sure you have all of the tools and skills
required. To help prevent the mini bike from falling over, park it on a firm, level surface, using the
side stand or a maintenance stand to provide support. To reduce the chance of a fire or explosion,
be careful when working around gasoline. Use only a non-flammable (high flash point) solvent such
as kerosene or mineral spirits to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from all fuel
related parts.
