Before You Begin Remove contents from box. Remove the foam separators that protect the components from damage during shipping. Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint, dents or kinked cables that may have occurred during shipping. Because the Dirt Rocket was 95 percent assembled and packed at the factory, there should not be any problems, even if the box has a few scars or dents.

Assembly and Set-Up Inflating the Tires Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and your purchase. Using a bicycle-style tire pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve, inflate the front tire to the PSI indicated on the sidewall of the tire. Note: The pressurized air supplies found at gasoline stations are designed to inflate high-volume automobile tires.

Repair and Maintenance q Replacing the Fuse – MX350 / MX500 / MX650 1 Remove the fairing/body cover.

Amperage number 4 Remove the fuse and replace with a new one of equal amperage. Note: Amperage is located on top of fuse and should be replaced with equal amperage.
Repair and Maintenance q Chain and Sprocket The chain will typically have a “loose spot” and “tight spot” corresponding with a particular sprocket rotational position. This is normal and common to all chain-driven vehicles due to run-out tolerances of the freewheel and sprocket. The chain should be adjusted to the ideal tension with chain in the tightest spot. Proper chain alignment must be maintained. The wheel must not be skewed.
