CHARGING THE BATTERY
WARNING:
Use ONLY with
the recommended charger. Batteries
are only to be charged under adult
supervision. The charger is not a
toy. Always disconnect the charger
before wiping down and/or cleaning
the Drift Rider with a damp cloth.
The charger supplied with the
Drift Rider should be regularly
examined for damage to the cord,
plug, enclosure and other parts. In
the event of such damage, the Drift
Rider must not be charged until it
has been repaired or replaced.
Chargers have built-in over-charge
protection to prevent battery from
being over-charged.
Note: If the charger gets warm
during regular use, this is a normal
response and is no cause for
concern. If your charger does not
get warm during use, it does not
mean that it is not working properly.

PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
Brake
Check the brake for proper function. When you squeeze the
lever, the brake should provide positive braking action. Make
sure that brake is not rubbing when the lever is released. When
you apply the brake with the throttle on/engaged, the brake
cut-off switch should cut power to the motor.
Wheels
Periodically inspect the wheels for excess wear. Practice drift
riding only in wide open areas clear from curbs, parking blocks
and other obstacles. Impacting the wheels against any hard
surface can damage the wheels. Wheels are not covered under
your limited warranty.
Frame, Fork and Handlebars
Check for cracks or broken connections. Although broken frames
are rare, it is possible for an aggressive rider to run into a curb
or object and wreck, bend or break a frame. Get in the habit of
inspecting your product on a regular basis.
Hardware/Loose Parts
Before every ride, check all parts, such as nuts, bolts, cables,
fasteners, etc., to ensure they are secure and assembled
correctly. There should not be any unusual rattles or sounds
from loose parts or broken components. If the unit is damaged,
do not ride.
Reference “Safety Warnings” on pages 1 and 2
of this manual.
Safety Gear
Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an approved
safety helmet (with chin strap securely buckled), elbow pads,
and kneepads. A helmet may be legally required by local law or
regulation in your area. A long-sleeved shirt and long pants are
recommended. Always wear shoes and keep shoelaces tied and out
of the way of the wheels and motor. NEVER RIDE BAREFOOTED OR
IN SANDALS.
Laws and Regulations
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations.
Insurance
Do not assume that your existing insurance policies necessarily
provide coverage for product use. Check with your insurance
company for information regarding insurance.
