We must be doing something right!Although it would seem this could be possible, it is not possible to detect even dangerously incorrectly inflated tires by the naked eye. The only way to know for sure is by using a reliable tire pressure gauge and taking measurements at least once every other week.
If you let your tires become under-inflated or over-inflated for an extended period of time, it could result in excessive and uneven tread wear patterns that can negatively impact tire performance.
This graphic shows how incorrect inflation can negatively effect your tires:
2a. What is the accuracy of your mechanical gauges?All of our mechanical gauges are designed, engineered, and performance tested at our certified industrial facility in Crystal Lake, IL. Our company's industrial testing facility is one of only a few facilities that are actually approved to
certify gauges to the standards of ANSI, ASME, and NIST (others may say they are).
During production, each gauge is calibrated on professional calibration equipment to ±1.5% accuracy at the middle of the scale. We also check various other pressure ranges during calibration to ensure accuracy throughout the entire scale. Most of our mechanical gauges are calibrated to meet or exceed ANSI B40.1 international standards. We have a very strict calibration process, so our gauges often exceed advertised specifications.
Certified ANSI B40.1 Standards: each calibrated gauge is within 2% accuracy in the middle 25-75% range of the scale, and within 3% accuracy in the lower and upper quarters.
2b. What is the accuracy of your digital gauges?For our digital gauges, we offer industrial lab calibration and certification from ±0.50% to 1% full scale range (depending on model).
3. What is your quality control process?All of our products are exclusively engineered and designed by JACO Superior Products in the USA.
After each unit is engineered to professional standards by our team, we then link up with our long-time trusted, state of the art production facility that our team has been working with for both industrial and commercial grade precision pressure equipment for over 30 years.
At our manufacturing facility, every gauge is calibrated & certified accurate to its advertised standard, then visually inspected for quality and performance before being sent to our main company warehouse in Illinois, where they undergo further visual inspection and testing before finally being delivered to one of our fulfillment warehouses across the country for fast and free delivery to you!
Here is a sneak peak of our Quality Inspection & Testing Lab in Crystal Lake, Illinois:
4. What type of tires can I measure with your tire gauges?
Each specific gauge model has its own recommended use, however in our collection of products you will find options for:
Can I use your gauges for bicycle tires with Presta valve stems?Yes, we do have a lineup of Presta tire pressure gauges for bikes!
8. I live in a very cold area. What is the lowest temperature this can be stored at in my car?Our gauges will work fine under most cold conditions. Make sure to store them in a dry, safe place - such as the glove box, center console, or a cargo organizer.
Temperatures below -10 degrees may slightly decrease performance of the gauge.
9. What materials are your gauges made from?We only source the highest quality materials and components for our gauges. We use premium quality steel, brass, aluminum, and rubberized & composite materials for maximum durability.
10. My gauge is no longer holding pressure, what can I do?Occasionally, this can happen if dust or some other material gets onto the valve seat, however it is usually very simple to fix:
Unscrew the tire gauge stem, pull out the brass plug and check the o-ring is aligned correctly.
Tap out the black/white (black on top) valve seat and spring below the brass plug, give a gentle blow down the stem while pressing the bleed button on the side and re-assemble.
If this does not work, it could be in the bleed button stem. As this is not accessible, a drop of lubricating oil down the bleed button stem can often solve the problem.
We will of course replace the gauge if it proves to be defective in any way, however this is very rare and if you wouldn't mind just trying this, it will correct the problem 99% of the time.
Also, please see the following diagram that gives a visual representation of this process:
11. Do your gauges come with a warranty?Yes! All of our gauges are backed by an industry leading warranty. If you have any issues, we will take good care of you. It's a small "thanks" for trusting our business!
12. Can I deflate a tire with your gauges?Yes, you can use the built-in air bleeder valve on our gauges to slowly deflate tires to the correct level.
This valve bleeds out air slowly, and is best used if you slightly over-inflate your tires, and use the gauge to slowly bleed it down to the exact target pressure level. Just confirm pressure with the gauge, and put the dust cap back on the tire valve!
For off-road air down, we recommend using our products specifically designed for deflation, which release air at the fastest possible rate.
13. Will your 60 psi gauges work with tires requiring lower than 10 psi?We understand that many off-road tires, such as those on ATVs and four-wheelers, require very low pressure (under 10 psi sometimes) for optimal performance.
For low pressure use under 10 PSI, we would suggest choosing one of our tire gauges that reads Max 15 PSI or Max 30 PSI.
14. Do your gauges have a reset button to clear the pressure reading?Yes, our mechanical gauges will hold the reading in place after measuring air pressure.
The same button you use to bleed out air from your tires (located on the neck of the gauge) can also be used to reset the pressure reading on the dial back to 0 psi.
For our digital gauges, you can press the "ON" button to reset the readings to zero.
15. Do I need a tire gauge if my vehicle has TPMS that displays tire pressure on the dashboard?Yes, our team works with a network of trusted mechanics and auto repair professionals, and we do recommend always owning a reliable tire pressure gauge if you also have TPMS built-in to your vehicle. This allows you to confirm pressure level before, during, and after inflation. It also reduces the need to constantly walk back and forth to your dashboard to see the readings while inflating.
16. Can your gauges be used on a reverse osmosis water tank?Yes! Most certainly, as long as you have a Schrader valve to connect to.
17. Would these gauges be good gauges for our RV?Definitely! We recommend a gauge with a range between 60-200 PSI for this.
The glow dials must be charged to activate the luminous scale. They are super easy to activate - just expose the face of the dial directly to any source of ambient lighting for about 10-20 seconds. The gauge will remain illuminated for about 5-10 minutes.
Common sources of lighting include direct sunlight, emergency light featured on our air compressors, smartphone flashlight feature, vehicle headlight, etc.
19. Can a change in altitude effect the air pressure of my car tires?Yes, altitude does indeed effect air inflation in tires. Check out our graph that provides an overview of how change in altitude will effect your tire air inflation:
Elite™ Low Pressure Tire Gauge - 15 PSI has a rating of 4.9 stars based on 87 reviews.

ATV tire pressure gauges come in a variety of different types, shapes, and sizes. They are an excellent safety measure to prevent your tires from becoming under-inflated, which can result in problems like wasted fuel usage and even tire failure. A quality tire pressure gauge allows you to perform proper maintenance and keep your tires in excellent working condition.
ATV tire pressure gauges are extremely easy to use, can be read easily, and are ideal for measuring air pressure in low-pressure vehicles and accessories, such as garden tractors, golf carts, and ATV tires, air springs, and more. They are available in both digital and manual varieties, which both provide extremely accurate and reliable readings.
ATV tire pressure gauges provide some unique advantages. No matter the type of gauge, they are specially designed for measuring air pressure in low pressure vehicles and accessories. The gauges typically feature a PSI range from zero to 20 PSI, although some models feature a higher range up to 100 PSI or more.
Most ATV tire pressure gauges are extremely easy to use, very portable, and can be used in a variety of situations. Some tire pressure gauges are even available as a combination product that also features an air compressor. These combination products can accurately ready your tire pressure while simultaneously inflating or deflating your ATV tires.
There are three main types of ATV tire pressure gauges, and each includes their own unique features and advantages. Depending on your lifestyle and use of your ATV, you may need a different type of ATV tire pressure gauge to best fit your needs. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the different types of ATV tire pressure gauges before making your purchase.
StickStick-type ATV tire pressure gauges look similar to a ballpoint pen. They are the most compact and portable option of all the types of ATV tire pressure gauges. These products feature a small PSI range, typically ranging anywhere from zero to 20 PSI.
In addition to being the most compact type, stick-type tire pressure gauges are also the most affordable type of tire pressure gauge. If you are shopping on a budget, then this is the ideal product for you. However, stick pressure gauges are not as user-friendly as other types, and they are often the most difficult to read or to gauge an accurate reading.
Digital ATV tire pressure gauges feature an electronic LCD display, making them extremely easy to read. Some models even feature a display that lights up or glows in the dark, making them easy to read in the dark, at night, or early morning hours. They are perhaps the most accurate of any of the three types of ATV tire pressure gauges.
Although digital tire pressure gauges are still quite portable, they are not as easy to travel with as stick pressure gauges. Another downside of digital gauges is that they require batteries, so make sure to always have a backup set of batteries on hand.
DialDial ATV tire pressure gauges feature an analog dial, similar to a clock face, and a needle to indicate the pressure reading. Some dial gauges are extremely compact and can fit into your pocket, while others include special features like extension hoses, bleeder valves, dual-scale dials, and shock-resistant dial covers.
Most dial gauges are extremely easy to read and have been known to provide very accurate readings. They can be a little more difficult to use than the other types of tire pressure gauges, and they are typically the most expensive of the three types.
For this article, we researched more than 10 different models of ATV tire pressure gauges. These included stick, digital, and dial pressure gauges from a variety of different companies. The various models were tested for durability, reliability, accuracy, and ease of use. We also checked to see if they were tested in a variety of weather conditions and different climates.
The results of this research and testing can be found throughout the article. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the different types, brands, and features of each ATV tire pressure gauge before making your purchase.
If you are a frequent ATV rider or enjoy taking long trips on your ATV, then a high quality ATV tire pressure gauge is an essential tool. ATV tire pressure gauges feature a number of unique features to help with the maintenance of your ATV and ensure that you are completely safe while riding. Make sure to understand all the key features of tire pressure gauges before making your final purchase.
For most ATVs, the proper tire pressure ranges between 4 and 8 pounds per square inch (PSI). Make sure to check your user manual for the exact specifications and requirements of your exact ATV model.
There are a number of extremely accurate tire pressure gauges. In general, digital tire pressure gauges are the most accurate. The AstroAI Digital Tire Pressure Gauge, for example, can provide accurate readings in 0.1 PSI increments.
Although it is not recommended, you can gauge your tire pressure manually and fill your tires by weight, hand pressure, or the eyeball method. Purchasing a compact pressure gauge, such as a stick-type, is a handy tool that can be taken with you anywhere you go.

ATV speed sensor - a device responsible for collecting and transmitting information to the vehicle's ECU. The signals sent allow you to calculate the speed of the ATV. But what to do if you bought an ATV, and after a while you found a malfunction? In this case, you need to figure out how and when the speed sensor is replaced.
Obviously, if the sensor is broken, the ATV's speedometer will not display speed. The instrument panel of the ATV will simply stop working or start to function incorrectly, showing false information. Although this is not the most serious problem that a rider may face.
Due to speed sensor failure:
In addition, if the ATV does not show the correct speed, problems with the odometer begin. For example, you can drive only 50 km, and the device will increase the mileage of the ATV by 300-400 km. A similar problem is especially unpleasant if you plan to sell the device, because a few tourist trips will increase its mileage by a couple of thousand kilometers.
If you notice on the speedometer that the ATV is not picking up speed, then you need to check the speed sensor. Of course, the speedometer itself could break, but this rarely happens.
The sensor may fail due to:
Before dismantling the speed sensor, it is advisable to carry out a basic diagnosis of the speedometer. It will be enough to check the condition of the wiring and cable, as well as clean its nodes from dirt.
It's worth noting right away that each ATV uses different types of sensors. Therefore, you should not buy a device “at random”, as you will simply throw money away. To select the appropriate component, you need to study the documentation of the ATV. Usually it specifies the specification of spare parts.
You can also dismantle the old device and take it to a specialist shop. However, remember that an unsuitable sensor cannot be fixed near the propeller shaft, and the data from it will be inaccurate.
Keep in mind that original spare parts for branded ATVs are expensive. And, to save money, you can take a similar Chinese sensor. For example, on the CFmoto X8 all-terrain vehicle, you can put a device with the number 35.3847, which is used in domestic cars.
If you notice that the ATV does not develop speed according to the speedometer or if you find other symptoms of a sensor malfunction, you need to replace the part. Even a novice driver can do this. To perform the procedure, you need:
Actually, this is the end of the job. The rider can only check the operation of the device. If the sensor is functioning correctly, the speedometer will show that the speed of the ATV increases and decreases, the vehicle will stop stalling, and fuel consumption will decrease by 15-20%.

In this article, we will talk about the maintenance features of children's and teenagers' ATVs with a four-stroke gasoline engine 125cc. see the MOTAX family, using the MOTAX T-REX SUPER LUX ATV as an example.
To change the engine oil you will need:
1. Used oil drain container (can be made from an old plastic canister by cutting off the side).
2. ATV four-stroke engine oil (we recommend using oil from the MOTUL range for replacement).
Please note that it is not permissible to use oil intended for automobile engines, since the gearshift mechanism and clutch are in the same oil bath with the engine and for their proper operation a certain set of additives is required, which are not found in automobile oil.
3. 17mm socket wrench or wrench.
The 125cc MOTAX T-REX SUPER LUX power pack has a 0.7L oil fill tank.
The ATV engine must be warmed up to operating temperature before changing the oil. Since the oil sump of the gearbox and engine is combined, it is recommended to ride the ATV forward and in reverse gear. This must be done so that the oil becomes more liquid and fluid, and the wear products that may have been deposited on the inner walls of the crankcase and the mechanism become suspended and mixed with the oil.
Don't be alarmed if the oil you drained from the ATV's powertrain is dark in color. During operation, the oil darkens, which indicates that it works and protects the engine from wear.
To drain the oil, unscrew the drain plug located at the very bottom of the engine crankcase. Do not confuse this plug with the chain tensioner bolt, which is installed next to it, in the left side cover of the motor.
It must not be unscrewed during this operation.
We turn off the drain plug (in our case, the drain plug is green, see photo above), having previously moved a container under the ATV to drain the used oil. Let the oil drain completely.
While the oil is draining, unscrew the oil dipstick, which simultaneously functions as an oil filler plug and leave it in place without removing it
below
In this case, the used oil will drain off without residue.
After the old oil is completely drained, screw back the oil drain plug
When screwing the plug, do not apply too much force, as this can damage the threads in the aluminum crankcase of the ATV engine.
New oil can now be added. The ATV's engine is equipped with both a dipstick and a viewing window on the bottom of the engine.
It is better to focus on the viewing window. The oil level should be approximately at the top of the oil.
The engine is splash lubricated, too much oil is better than too little. The ATV engine is equipped with a breather at the top, the excess will come out through it without damaging the gaskets and seals. Of course, you should not get involved in overflowing oil into the engine either. Oil should be poured through the hole in which the oil dipstick is installed
After the oil is filled, we wrap the oil dipstick in place. Start the engine and let it idle for about 30 seconds. Stop the engine, let the ATV stand still on level ground for about 30 seconds. If the oil level has dropped, the oil must be topped up.
If the level is correct, you can proceed to the next stage of maintenance work.
Almost all 2017-2019 MY ATVs a serviceable foam rubber filter is installed for cleaning the air entering the carburetor. If the filter element is intact, not torn, then it is allowed to simply rinse it without changing it to a new one.
The first thing to do is disconnect the filter from the ATV carburetor.
Filter, attached with a worm gear clamp, a Phillips screwdriver is required for removal
Loosen the clamp and tighten the air filter
Two types of filters are used on ATVs MOTAX . Foam rubber, as in the photo above and a filter with a metal mesh. The principle of their maintenance is similar, the used ATV filter must be washed and then impregnated with a special oil, such as MOTUL.
To wash the filter element, you can use both special liquids (for cleaning carburetors) and ordinary liquids - gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, water from Fairy for washing dishes.
The filter must be washed carefully to avoid damaging the filter element.
After the filter has been washed, it must be dried and soaked in oil. Oil penetrates through the pores of the filter element, lingering in them, thereby helping to trap the smallest particles of dust and dirt. It is necessary to impregnate the filter evenly, without gaps. Any, even the smallest gap, is a weak point through which dirt and dust will surely get into the engine, subjecting it to premature wear
After the oil has been applied to the filter, you need to take a regular plastic bag, put it on the filter and rub the applied oil into the surface of the filter element.
The oil is now evenly distributed over the surface of the filter element. No gaps or voids.
Reinstall the filter, leaving the filter bag in place for now to avoid getting your hands dirty. Before installation, it is recommended to lubricate the rubber seat with engine oil
Tighten the clamp with a screwdriver
Remove bag from filter. Done - the air filter has been serviced, you can proceed to the next stage of the ATV maintenance work.

Replacing it requires 16mm spark plug socket.
ATV Spark Plug MOTAX T - REX SUPER LUX is installed conveniently, in an accessible place on the side of the engine
Remove the candle cap from the candle, put the head on the candle and turn it counterclockwise.
Install the new spark plug in reverse order. We tighten the candle with sufficient force, but at the same time carefully so as not to break the threads in the head of the engine block. The applied force on the key should be smooth and moderate.
After the spark plug has been replaced, the ATV suspension can be serviced.
The MOTAX ATV's suspension joints are equipped with grease fittings that are designed to force grease into the ball joint using a special grease gun.
The same grease fittings are provided to lubricate the
steering shaft and rear swingarm
ATV's suspension requires a special grease gun and grease for the pivot joints.
Grease injector can be anything, but in our opinion the most convenient syringe with a flexible nose, designed to work with hard-to-reach suspension grease points
MOTUL Tech Grease 300 is an excellent lubricant.
Lubricate steering ends, ball joints and other suspension units with rubber boots and seals with care, as high-pressure grease injected with a syringe can damage them. In order to control the supply of oil to the lubricated unit, we recommend that you keep your fingers free from the syringe on the rubber boot. Thus, it will be possible to feel when the lubricant passes through the swivel and its excess begins to come out. At this point, the injection of lubricant into the joint must be stopped
Wipe off excess grease with a rag or rag and put a protective cap on the grease fitting
All suspension units equipped with grease fittings are sprayed in this way.
To lubricate the steering shaft, put the syringe head on the grease fitting it is equipped with. passed through the entire node and is no longer required.
To service the ATV's drive chain, jack up the rear axle of the ATV so that the wheels turn freely in the air, but the ATV maintains a stable position.
mud. For this work, you can use the special tool MOTUL or regular gasoline and a brush. It is better to install a pan under the ATV so that the remnants of the old grease and cleaning agent flow into it. To do this, you can use the same canister that was used to drain the used oil from the engine.
The chain should be thoroughly rinsed from the inside and the outside by turning the ATV wheel and thereby shifting it
Apply new lubricant only on a dry, clean surface, so after washing the chain should be wiped with a rag or rag
Please note that the ATV during the performance of these works, for safety reasons, it must be de-energized. Be careful not to get your hands between the drive chain and the star.
ATV chain can be lubricated with any lubricant specifically designed for this purpose. Chain lubricant is sold in aerosol cans. We recommend using MOTUL C3 off Road
Lubrication should be applied on the inside and outside of the chain, on both rows of links.
A chain tensioner is installed on MOTAX ATVs. This assembly is flushed and lubricated during maintenance along with the chain
Pull the roller down and loosen the chain with one hand, check for slack with the other by pressing the chain from the bottom up
If the chain slack is more than 1.5 cm, the chain tension must be adjusted.
To adjust the tension of the chain, loosen the rear bottom bracket at the top and bottom using the 17 and 14 wrenches.
Next, tighten the chain with tensioners. Chain tensioners are installed on both sides of the carriage and it is necessary to adjust the chain tension both simultaneously and evenly.
