TrailMaster Assembly Guide
Step-by-step assembly instructions for your TrailMaster go karts, delivered via video tutorials and written tips.
Before You Get Started
When your new TrailMaster vehicle arrives it will typically be partially assembled in a crate. You’ll finish the final steps yourself. Follow these general guidelines:
- Prepare a clean workspace with room to move around the vehicle.
- Gather basic tools: combination wrench set (8–19mm), socket set, screwdrivers, pliers, torque wrench.
- Read through the entire manual and watch the linked videos below before starting.
- Have a second person assist for larger lifts (roll cage, wheels, etc.).
