Replacing the seat
The entire seat of the Skippi can easily be disassembled for removal or replacement. Make
sure to first disconnect the control cable to avoid damaging the cables and plug connections.
At the rear, the seat is secured with one screw connection on each side, left and right. Use
two size 5 Allen wrenches to loosen these screw connections.
