Go Motorboard™ is now in
Riding Position
. To return to Kickstand Posi-
tion, firmly pull back the Folding Lever with one hand while pulling the Foam
Grip/Handlebar back with your other hand.
Practice with your Go Motorboard™ as a
PUSH SCOOTER
until you
feel comfortable riding without the speed of the electric motors. Grasp the
Foam Grips on the Handle Bars with both hands, place one foot on the
Deckboard, and push-off a few times with your other foot to move for-
ward.
IMPORTANT: NEVER ATTEMPT TO DRIVE YOUR GO
MOTORBOARD
™
IN REVERSE. YOU MAY DAMAGE THE
ELECTRONICS.
Practice Starting the Drive System:
Your Go Motorboard™ has a
unique power-saving, safety feature that ensures that the electric motors do
not engage until the vehicle is traveling
in excess of 3 m.p.h.
To Accelerate:
Push-scoot your Go Motorboard™ to
3 m.p.h.
and, when
you are ready to accelerate, use your right index finger to
gently squeeze
the Speed Controller Trigger located above the right-hand Foam Grip. Your
Go Motorboard™ electric motors are now engaged. Gently continue
squeezing the Speed Controller Trigger until you attain the desired speed.
You can control speeds within a range of 3mph to a maximum of 15
mph.
Practice riding your TranSporter on a flat safe area. Go slowly and
practice accelerating, decelerating, and braking. Do not go any
faster than your skills allow.
ALWAYS WEAR AN APPROVED
SAFETY HELMET AND OTHER SAFETY GEAR WHEN RIDING
YOUR MOTORBOARD
.
Braking System:
THIS SECTION DESCRIBES BOTH AVAIL-
ABLE BRAKING SYSTEMS! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!
To Decelerate:
While riding your Go Motorboard™ with the electric
motors engaged, release the Speed Controller Trigger and the unit will
coast. You can then engage one of the two available braking systems.
Primary Braking System:
Pull the hand brake lever to engage the rear
brake.
IMPORTANT: THIS BRAKE IS NOT EFFECTIVE WHEN
GOING DOWN STEEP INCLINES OR LONG, SHALLOW
GRADES. USE THE SECONDARY BRAKING SYSTEM IN-
STEAD.
Secondary Braking System:
The secondary braking system on the Go
Motorboard™ is engaged by placing the heel of your shoe on top of the
rear wheel, and applying pressure. By varying the amount of pressure, you
can vary the amount of braking power. Make sure that when operating the
Go Motorboard™ you are wearing appropriate footwear in order to oper-
ate this braking system. This technique is especially effective when riding
down small hills.
