TYRE INFLATION
If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tyres, you should check their condition on a daily
basis. Have the tyre pressure checked and if necessary inflated to the recommended pressure at
least once a week. Properly inflated tyres will help ensure a smooth, stable ride with minimum
rolling resistance for your motor, it will also prolong the tyre's life and resistance to punctures.
MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORTATION
Currently there are no standards approved for "tie down" systems in a moving vehicle of any tyre
to transport a person while seated in a scooter. Although your scooter may be equipped with a
positioning belt, this is not designed to provide proper restraint during motor vehicle movements.
Anyone travelling in a motor vehicle should be properly secured in the motor vehicle seat with a
safety belt fastened securely.
Warning:
ALWAYS
inflate your tyres from a regulated air source. Over inflation from
an unregulated air source could over inflate your tyres resulting in "blow out" or personal
injury.
DO NOT
over inflate your tyres to the maximum inflation pressure indicated on
the tyre cover, failure to observe this warning could damage your scooter wheels. Your
tyres are designed for low speed use on pavements and roads. They are not for high
speeds, such as in vehicles designed to travel at speeds in excess of 15 mph.
