bRAkE OPERATION
The Electro-Drive™ electric scooter
is equipped with front and/or rear
brakes. It is operated by using the
brake lever on the handlebars and is
designed to provide excellent stop-
ping power for your scooter. Squeeze
the brake lever(s) firmly to bring your
scooter to a safe, controlled stop.
The brake lever itself should never
touch the handlebar or grip when
squeezed firmly. If it does, then immediately STOP RIDING and adjust the
brake cable.
All brakes need periodic adjustment. However, the brake
mechanism itself should be adjusted only by a qualified
service technician. If or when it needs service, take your
scooter to your local bicycle dealer or to the retailer who
sold you the scooter.
Improper adjustment of your brake(s) can cause poor
braking and lead to an accident, serious rider injury or
death.
bRAkE CAbLE ADjUSTMENT
If your brake cable stretches (as is
common with new cables do during
the initial “breaking-in” period), your
brake lever will require a longer “pull”
to engage the brake and may even
touch the handlebar when squeezed.
Use the adjusting barrel on the brake
lever to adjust for this cable stretch.
Loosen the adjusting barrel lock nut.
Unscrew the adjusting barrel out of the lever 1 to 2 turns, then re-tighten the
lock nut to secure the adjusting barrel.
Do not allow the adjusting barrel to unscrew more than
5 full rotations out of the brake lever.
