Periodic Maintenance

Brake Fluid Check
Insufficient brake fluid will allow air into the brake system
and may cause the brake system to fail. Please check
the brake fluid level regularly and refill it if necessary.
1.
When checking the
fluid level, please turn
the handle bar to
ensure the brake fluid
indicator is horizontal.
2.
Only use specified brake fluid, otherwise the oil
seals will deteriorate. Deterioration can cause
fluid leaks & loss of brake function.
Standard brake oil: FMVSS DOT4.
3.
Clean up any spilled brake fluid immediately with
clean water. Brake fluid will erode painted
surfaces and/or plastic.
4.
If any problems are noticed with the fluid color,
volume, leaking or any other problem with the
brake system, have your Genuine Scooter
Company dealer inspect immediately.
Suspension
Suspension is very important in vehicle stability.
Malfunctioning suspension can cause your vehicle to
behave in an unpredictable manner. Check regularly.
1.
Check the inner surface of the front fork and rear shock for
any wear, damage, or leakage.
2.
Park the vehicle on a flat surface prior to inspection.
Hold the handlebar and keep the vehicle in a vertical
position. Apply the front brake.
- Press and release the
vehicle's front fork several
times to check the front fork.
- Hold the rear grab-rail and
press up and down several
times to check the rear shock.
If the suspension functions are not smooth or any
component is damaged, immediately contact your
authorized Genuine Scooter Company dealer for service.
Caution: Do not mix brake fluid types.
