9.0 Preventative Maintenance Program
To properly provide for the continued operation of your MGI Zip
X1, MGI has introduced its Preventative Maintenance Program
[PMP]. The PMP consists of work to be carried out by both the
owner and authorised service centres. To properly maintain the
warranty of your MGI Zip X1, it is essential that this work is carried
out. If the work carried out by the authorised service centre is to
replace parts that are part of the maintenance schedule, the
owner will be charged for the parts and labour. If the work to be
carried out is part of warranty, MGI will bear the cost.
9.1 Cleaning Your Zip X1 [See Maintenance Schedule]
• For years of good operation, your Zip X1 requires care and
attention.
• Keep your Zip X1 clean by using a cloth with warm water and
a mild detergent.
• Do not hose down your Zip X1 under any circumstance, as
the Zip X1 has electronic components.
• Ensure that the seat stem bracket is free from sand.
• Do not submerge your Zip X1 in water as it will cause
irreparable damage.
• Clean the Zip X1 battery base when the battery is removed
from the Zip X1.
9.2 Rear Wheel Axles Maintenance [See Maintenance Schedule]
The rear wheel stub axles need to be lubricated regularly. Remove
the rear wheels by depressing the spring clip and at the same
time pull off the wheel. Apply Petroleum Jelly or light grease to
the stub axles. Use a very small amount as the grease can attract
sand. If you play in sandy conditions you should clean the axle
and regrease fortnightly.
9.3 Upper and Lower Bag Strap Maintenance [See Maintenance
Schedule]
The bag straps should be replaced as per the Service Schedule.
The upper bag strap can be replaced by:
• Removing the left and right hand straps form the upper bag
support
• Undo and remove the screws holding the strap in position on
the bag support
• Remove and replace both bag straps
• Insert bag strap securing screws.
9.4 MGI Service Schedule

necessary adjustments and services are carried out. If in doubt
