case also removed and later accordingly reinstall. The front rollers do not have a
spacer. We recommend for safety reasons to renew the varnish of the self-locking nut
on this occasion.
BEARING CHANGE
Your roller skates are equipped with ball-bearings that were in the course of the
production filled with grease under high pressure conditions. For this reason they only
roll easier and faster when subjected to a load. Since this involves a closed system,
the bearings do not have to be re-lubricated.
Ball bearings should be cleaned as needed with a dry cloth. In the event that the ball
bearing on a roller skate has become wet or damp when riding, it is necessarily that
it is wiped dry with a cloth. Worn bearings have to be replaced. Loosen the roller from
the chassis. You should now use a screwdriver to remove the ball bearing. After the
cleaning process, or the replacement of the ball bearing, press the ball bearing firmly
in the roller.
STOPPER CHANGE OR ELSE ADJUSTMENTS
The stoppers wear out over time. In the event that stopper is quite worn out, loosen
the stopper block with a Phillips screwdriver from the chassis. Reinsert the new stop-
per back properly. The clearance between the lower edge of the stopper and the ride
surface has to amount to more 10 mm. Repairs or adjustments on the roller skates,
have to be performed by an adult.
BATTERIES
WARNING: The batteries supplied are not rechargeable. Rechargeable batteries are
only to be charged under adult supervision. Never try to charge non-rechargeable
batteries. If attempts are made to charge this type of battery, they may not only run
out but also explode, which may lead to destruction, the risk of fire and not least to
injuries. Only use the batteries specified above for the product.
DISPOSAL ADVICE
At the end of the product’s life, please dispose of it at an appropriate collection point
provided in your area. Local waste management companies will be able to answer your
questions on this.
Caution: Used batteries and switching units/electrical and electronic parts
must not be discarded in the house waste in order to protect the environ-
ment. By the means of an environmentally friendly disposal, valuable raw
materials can be recovered. Return of old batteries is therefore mandatory
by law. After use batteries can be disposed of free of charge at any point of
sale or existing collections centres. All switching units must be removed from the prod-
uct and must also be disposed of separately. The symbol with the crossed-out bin in-
dicates this.
To remove the electronics, first proceed as described under CHANGE THE BATTERY.
Cut the cables with pliers or scissors. Please remove empty batteries from the prod-
uct and dispose of them and the electronics separately and in an environmentally
friendly manner.

INSTRUCTIONS ON ASSEMBLY AND USE
CR2032 battery is required per roller skate. The batteries are included and only need
to be activated. To protect your child, the battery compartment is screwed shut. To
open it, use a Phillips screwdriver and loosen the screw (fig.1). Push the shaft of the
roller skate with the screw sleeve forwards. Pull the cover flap (a) downwards. Remove
the protective cover. (Fig. 2) When inserting the battery, make sure that the battery
poles are positioned correctly. Close the system again by following all steps in reverse.
SIZE ADJUSTMENT
1. Open all closure systems.
2. Hold the skate firmly at the front on the toe clap and press the lever at the back of
the skate down.
3. Turn the lever. Turning the lever clockwise will reduce the size. A larger shoe size
can be selected through a counter-clockwise turn. The set size can be read off the
side of the article.
4. Once the desired size is reached, push the lever back up. Please thereby ensure
that the push-lock snaps.
5. Proceed likewise with the second skate.
6. Check before use that all closure systems are suitably adjusted and closed. They
should be set so that the shoes fit snugly without impairing the blood circulation.
RIDE TECHNIQUE
Please ensure that your child does not ride too fast. At too high a speed novice riders
can in particular no longer control the skates. Instruct your child in the riding tech-
nique, for example on how to glide, curve riding and especially on how to brake.
TIPS
1. Your child should try out some important skills in order to get accustomed initially
on an old carpet, before you permit the child to ride on asphalt. Instruct your child
that it should stand at about a hand length parallel and upright on the skates. The
body weight should thereby be shifted on to the balls of the foot. A more common
error among novices is that when standing upright they tend to keep the knees stiff
and shift their weight on to the heels. Provide your child with assistance so that it
attains the right posture.
2. Once your child has mastered the first riding techniques, you can then permit it to
practice further on clean, level asphalt. Please ensure that your child does not ride
on steep slopes, roads with traffic and difficult underground.
3. Every beginning is difficult and the most accidents happen to "Novices" within the
first ten minutes. You should pay special attention to your child during this phase.
THE BRAKING TECHNOLOGY
Explain the brakes to your child. In order to stop, your child can simply let the skates
slow down to a stop. A more controlled slow down is however achieved by braking
with the rear-mounted stoppers on both shoes that generate a braking effect through
slipping. Encourage your child to practice the use of the brakes. In order to slip the tip
of the foot has to slightly be lifted up, so that the stopper touches the ground at the
back. The more pressure is exercised, the faster the speed decreases. Full stops
should be avoided, since a controlled ride can then often no longer be ensured. You
should therefore instruct your child to always ride with foresight.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Use a dry or damp cloth only to clean the product; do not use special cleaning agents!
Check the product for damage or traces of wear and tear before and after each use.
Do not make any structural changes. For your own safety, please use original spare
parts only. These can be sourced from HUDORA. If parts become damaged or if sharp
edges or corners should develop, the product may not be used any more. If in any
doubt, please contact our service team (http://www.hudora.de/). Store the product in
a safe place where it is protected from the elements, cannot be damaged, and cannot
injure anyone.
Wear and tear necessitates regular service and maintenance. Worn stoppers, rollers
or bearings are easy to replace. You are not permitted to perform any changes on the
roller skates that may impair safety. The self-locking effect of self-locking nuts or
else axes may subside due to the repeated loosening and tightening of the fasteners.
You should remove edges that result from the use as soon as possible. Regular ser-
vice and maintenance increases the reliability and service life of the roller skates.
ROLLER CHANGE
Rollers are available as an accessory. Note that the bearings on the old rollers have to
be removed and inserted into the new rollers. In order to change the rollers, you have
to loosen the screws, remove the old rollers and insert the new rollers (either provided
with new ball bearings or with their old ball bearings) on the axle and tighten the
screws. When removing the rear rollers it has to be ensured that the spacer is in each
