Hot or Cold
There are some weather conditions that should be avoided for example extreme temperatures. The hotter the temperature the less ef-
ficient your unit will be so try to avoid operation on those very hot days. Also, avoid allowing your scooter to sit in freezing temperature
as this could cause sever battery damage.
Brake lever and cable
Make sure the cable is not frayed or kinked in any way. Lever position can be adjusted for your reach on the controls, Cable adjust-
ments are available at the brake lever and you can increase or take up slack by screwing or unscrewing the adjustment barrel.
WARNING: The brake mounting bolts and nuts must be securely tightened to maintain proper braking.
WARNING: Always wear an approved helmet when riding your scooter. The helmet should be worn correctly as outlined in the
owner’s manual. Failure to wear an approved helmet can result in a serious injury.
B. Protective pads
Elbow pads, knee pads, and wrist guards are not required by most states or regions. Again, common sense dictates that you should
wear protective pads to help protect against injury. Your authorized dealer may have a variety of protective pads, and can recommend
one to suit your needs. A good set of pads should fit comfortably, stay in position at all times and not have any excess strapping,

, or other protrusions to catch on anything that can cause you to lose control of your electric scooter.
C. Shoes
Your shoes should have good grip, protection, and support. Your shoes should have adequate strapping or laces so they stay on your
feet. Make sure that laces or other strapping can not catch or hang-up on any part of the scooter or other objects. Never ride barefoot
or wear sandals when operating the scooter.
D. Clothing
Being seen is very important. Brightly colored, reflective helmets and clothing will help make riders more noticeable. Clothing should
not be so loose that it can catch on moving parts or be snagged on other objects.
E. Eye protection
Any kind of riding can involve airborne debris, dust, and bugs, so common sense dictates that you should wear protective eyewear
with protective lenses.
