Default Manco dingo IX model 390U brakes

This is my first go cart, my fiancé got it for me for my birthday. As stated above its a manco dingo 9, model 390U-0. When I first rode it I almost wrecked it because the brakes did not work at all! I tried adjusting them and noticed the inside pad was very very low. I purchased a brand new caliper with brand new pads...I adjusted it all way down to we're to cart would not move and adjust the brake a 1/4 turn at a time until it could just barely move freely and the brakes worked for a few stops. Then right back to nothing. I am stumped and getting very frustrated. Any help guys? Thanks!
