Riding
1. Make sure that all of the exposed bolts and screws are tightened.
2. Raise the kickstand to its upright position.
3. Push the on/off switch (located on the left handlebar) to the ON position.
4. Put one foot on the deck of the EW-1000 while pushing off with the other foot, gently
rotate the THROTTLE GRIP, on the right side of the handlebars. The EW-1000 will
begin to move on its own power.
**Your scooter has a variable speed hand throttle. You can control the speed of your
scooter by the amount of pressure you use when rotating the hand throttle. The more
you rotate, the faster you will go.
Stopping/Braking
1. To brake, release the THROTTLE GRIP and depress the BRAKE LEVERS (on the
left/right side of the handlebars. Depressing the brake will disengage power to the
motor. When the unit feels like it is loosing power or not accelerating to full speed,
the scooter is ready to be re-charged.
NOTE: If the on/off switch is left in the ON position for more than 10-15 minutes without
moving, Smart Power will shut itself OFF. To reset, turn the unit OFF, wait a few seconds
and then switch it back ON again.
FOLDING & STORAGE
When you are done riding the EW-1000 you can fold it down for compact storage and
transportation. To fold down the EW-1000 use one hand to push down on the folding
handle while gently pushing down on the handlebars. BE CAREFUL NOT TO HIT YOUR
HEAD WITH THE HANDLEBAR. Push down until you feel the mechanism lock into the
down position.
BRAKING SYSTEM
The EW-1000 uses a pinch braking system for the front, and a disc/caliper
system for the rear They are both activated by a hand brake lever on the left
and right side of the handlebar. Squeezing the hand brake lever with your left
hand activates the rear brake. Squeezing the hand brake lever with your right
hand activates the front brake. Make sure to release the HAND THROTTLE
GRIP when engaging the brakes.
Practice braking on a smooth, dry surface to get used to the feel of the braking
system. Braking distance is affected by wet conditions and loose and uneven
riding surfaces.
Adjusting the Brakes
The Brakes on the EW-1000 should come fully adjusted from the factory.
