Still learning about my Max 11. Put it in a pond and for the first 20min. all was ok. noticed some water through the openings in floor. need to either replace the seals or somehow re-seal the axles? Also, would like a few tips on adjusting the sticks. My left stick, needs to be pulled further than the right?..but a higher speeds both work the same? I read somplace, about extending the sticks higher up. I'm 6 foot and 220, put another rider in there, and it gets cramped with one leg over right stick.

HET ED:

remove axle's bolted flange and dress outside of bearing and inner face of outside bearing support (the flange) with black rtv silicon adhesive/sealand dress
bolt on back!!!....remember to keep center of bearing without silicon....also loose outside collar located on axle and add silicon on the inner face of outside collar before secure it back..on place

ISAAC HAS A POINT, THE FLANGES ALSO GET BEAT UP AND LOOSEND, YOU CAN REFRESH THE FLANGE A BIT NEXT TIME YOU HAVE IT DISASEMBLED BY PLACEING IT ON A FLAT SERFISE (WOOD) AND TAP IT WITH A HAMMER AROUND TILL ITS TIGHTER, CAIRFULL YOU DON'T OVER DO IT THOUGH,
ITS STILL GOING TO LEAK THOUGH, BUT THIS WILL HELP SOME,
