Tire Tread Wear

Measure tire tread depth. If less than 1/32", it is recommended you
replace the tire.

Seat Post Lubrication

The seat should rotate freely. Clean and lubricate the top of the seat
post and the inside of the seat base attached to the seat. Lubricate with
petroleum jelly or other similar lubricant.

Caster Wheels

If the caster wheels are badly worn; it is recommended that they be
replaced.

Clock Battery

After time, the clock may begin to lose time, or stop, when the battery
runs down. The battery is easily replaced by removing the clock from the
dash, prying open the clock’s case, and inserting a new battery. Use the
following to replace the clock battery.

Battery Types: SR626SW, UCC 377, Ray-O-Vac RW329

1.

Remove clock from the dash.

2.

Use a small screwdriver to open the case by inserting the
screwdriver blade into the notch on the back cover. Gently twist
blade so that the back cover comes off.

3.

Slide the metal battery cover plate aside and remove battery.

4.

Install new battery with positive pole (+) facing outwards. Slide
battery cover back in place over new battery.

After replacing battery, make sure time setting is correct before replacing
clock into dash.

Electrical Connections

Check battery terminals and all plug connectors to make sure that a
tight connection is made. If battery terminals are corroded, disconnect
the leads and clean all connections with a soft wire brush. Re-connect
leads and apply a protective coating (e.g., petroleum jelly, etc.) to
prevent corrosion.

Hardware Inspection

Check and make sure all fasteners are present and secure. Replace any
missing fasteners and tighten any loose fasteners.

Cleaning Instructions

Wash your scooter with a sponge using household detergent diluted in
warm water to clean all components (i.e., seat, front cover, floor pan,
rear cover, etc.). Wipe excess soapy water from the vehicle using a clean
damp cloth. Avoid getting any water on the electrical components (i.e.,
connectors, switches, battery terminals, etc.).
