Safety Responsibilities
It’s up to you. We’ve done everything we can to supply you with a safe and
reliable product. Please read, understand and practice the following guidelines
for safe operation of your OSET electric Trials Bike:
• Always follow the Pre-Ride Checklist before every ride.
• Do not operate your OSET if any damage is apparent. Immediately contact
your local retailer/distributor or OSET Customer Service.
•
Supervision: Riders must be supervised by responsible adults at all times .
The rider should never be beyond eye and voice range. An adult must ALWAYS
assess and approve the riding conditions and the bike preparedness before the
bike is ridden. Always ensure the rider is cautious, maintaining complete control
and a reasonable speed. Ensure the terrain is suited to the skills of the rider.
•
Helmets & Safety Attire : There is no single factor that works better at reducing
the severity of injuries sustained in accidents more than a quality helmet. Please
don’t ever allow your OSET to be ridden without one. Riders should also wear
suitable riding gear - gloves, eye protection and boots. Boots should NOT HAVE
LACES. Shoe laces and loose clothing, or even long hair could potentially get
caught in wheels, chains, or sprockets.

passengers. Carrying a passenger would overload the machine and alter the
handling. Do not allow this to happen.

Exceeding the weight limitations will adversely affect the handling of the
machine, and potentially cause damage.
