Size and Weight Limits
Your scooter was designed to accommodate users up to a specified size and weight. As each scooter is designed
and rated differently, ensure you check your particular scooter model’s limits. Periodically check your weight
against your scooter’s limits, as your weight may fluctuate over time. Ensure other users of your scooter are within
the weight limits. Operation of the scooter by a user over the weight limit can damage the scooter and can cause
hazardous situations, including increased braking distances and times, decreased steering responsiveness, tip-
overs, and other dangers which may cause injury. Further, modifications which increase the riding height of the
scooter, which raise the user’s riding height on the scooter, or which otherwise change the center of gravity of the
scooter can damage the scooter and cause the hazardous situations identified above. eWheels is not responsible
for damage to the scooter or personal injury caused by exceeding weight limitations or modifying the center of
gravity of your scooter. Do not adjust your seat while the scooter is in motion or operating.
General Operation – Safety Belt
If your scooter is equipped with a safety belt, use it all times when seated in the scooter. Do not operate your
scooter without wearing the safety belt. Have the belt replaced by an authorized repair technician if the safety belt
becomes frayed, cut, or shows other signs of wear or damage.
