MAINTENANCE 

 
Tires 

Since your tires are flat free tires, there is no need to ever worry about tire air pressure. 

 
General Maintenance and Lubrication 

  Inspection for loose wheel bolts, seat and arm tightening bolts, and other nuts and bolts 

is recommended on a regular basis. 

  Most lubricated components on the Scootie Jr. Portable scooter are designed to be 

maintenance free and are sealed. Therefore lubrication is not required for these 
components. However, the driving axles should always have a very light coat of 
multipurpose grease. 
 

DO NOT USE TOO MUCH GREASE! 
Drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishings, etc. 
 

  It is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assembly) be checked 

and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up, which will hinder the performance of 
the unit. 

  Check the batteries on a regular basis. For extended battery life, it is highly 

recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. If the batteries are weak, 
severely discharged or old, a variety of problems may occur with the unit including charging 
problems, reduced speed, loss of range, and others. Please contact your local Shoprider® 
provider for battery replacement. 
 

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

 

 

Circuit Breaker  

Your scooter is fitted with the latest in electronic controls that are programmed to protect 
the electrical system from abnormal overloads.  Provided for extra protection is a circuit 
breaker, located on the side of the battery pack.  Should there be a situation where your 
scooter stops for no apparent reason, please check that the circuit breaker has not popped. 
 

Check List 

If your scooter fails to operate, please check the following: 

  Unit is switched on. 

  Drive/Freewheel mechanism is in the drive position. 

  All plugs and connectors are clean and firmly connected. 

  Battery level shows full charge. 

 
If the free wheel device has been operated with the scooter switched on, then the scooter 
will not operate until the ignition key has been switched off and then on again. 
 
Please consult your dealer if your scooter does not run after checking these points.
