Basic Maintenance
The following procedures will help you maintain your scooter for
years of enjoyable riding.
• For painted frames, dust the surface and remove any loose dirt
with a dry cloth. To clean, wipe with a damp cloth soaked in a mild
detergent solution.
• Clear any debris between the wheels and frame
• Store your scooter indoors when not in use. Prolonged exposure
to UV rays, rain, and elements may damage the components.
• Riding on the beach or in coastal areas exposes your scooter to
salt which is very corrosive. Clean your scooter frequently.
• If paint has become scratched or chipped to the metal, use touch
up paint to prevent rust. Clear nail polish can also be used as a
preventative measure.
• Check that the wheels are securely fastened to the scooter and
axle nuts are tight.
