AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO PARENTS:
This manual contains important safety information. For your child’s safety, it is your
responsibility to review this information with your child and make sure that your
child understands all warnings, cautions, instructions, and safety topics. Nextsport
recommends that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this
manual with younger riders, and that you inspect and maintain your child’s knee-
board to ensure their safety.
WARNING:
Kneeboard riding can be a hazardous activity. Kneeboards can
and are intended to move, and it is therefore possible to get into dangerous situ-
ations and/or lose control and/or fall off. If such things occur, serious injury may
result. LIKE ANY OTHER MOVING PRODUCTS, SUCH AS BICYCLES, SKATE-
BOARDS, OR IN-LINE SKATES, RIDING A KNEEBOARD CAN BE A DANGEROUS
ACTIVITY AND MAY RESULT IN INJURY, EVEN WHEN USED WITH PROPER
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON
SENSE.
Read the instructions carefully and assemble the kneeboard according to these
instructions before you allow the child to ride. This kneeboard requires assembly
by an adult.
BEFORE YOU START
Assemble flag stick pieces and insert assembled safety flag into holder.
Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an ANSI, SNELL, CPSC,
or ASTM approved helmet, elbow, and kneepads. Always keep the chinstrap
securely buckled on the helmet. Long sleeve shirt, gloves, long pants, shoes, and elbow
and knee pads are mandatory. Wear athletic shoes (lace-up shoes with rubber soles).
Don’t ride barefoot or in sandals. Keep shoelaces out of the way of wheels or pivots.
Use the kneeboard only on flat, dry, level ground without loose debris like rocks or
gravel. Ride on smooth, paved surfaces away from motor vehicles. Do not ride on
sloped or hilly surfaces. Excessive speed may develop.
Never use the kneeboard at dusk or night, or in wet or icy conditions. Wet weather
impairs traction, braking, and visibility.
Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates, and sudden surface changes. Avoid water, speed
bumps, sand, gravel, and anything else that could cause the wheels to suddenly stop.
When in doubt avoid the bumps.
Do not exceed 110 lbs (50 kilograms) total weight on the kneeboard. For
riders ages 6 years and older. Do not jump or stand on deck surface.
Do not wear anything that obstructs hearing, visibility, or function when riding the
kneeboard.
Watch out for pedestrians. Avoid excessive speed.
Never ride in traffic or on the street, and watch your surroundings for
pedestrians, bikes, and skateboard and kneeboard riders. Use the kneeboard in areas
free from fixed or moving hazards such as poles, curbs, hydrants, walls, parked automo-
biles, and traffic. Do not have yourself pulled or towed.
Keep hands and feet clear of pivot and steering mechanism at all times.
FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE WARN-
INGS FURTHER INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE AT YOUR
OWN RISK AND WITH APPROPRIATE AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE
OPERATION. USE CAUTION.
WARNING: ALWAYS INSPECT KNEEBOARD PRIOR TO RIDING. Proper
inspection and maintenance of your kneeboard can reduce the risk of injury. Check all
fasteners before every ride. Always inspect your kneeboard before riding, and main-
tain it regularly. Replace worn or broken parts immediately. Adults must assist children
in the assembly and initial adjustment procedure.
WARNING: REGARDING USE OF NON-NEXTSPORT PRODUCTS WITH
YOUR FUZION KNEEBOARD. Your kneeboard has been built to Nextsport’s design
specifications. All the original equipment supplied at the time of sale was selected on
the basis of compatibility with the frame, wheels, pivots, and all other parts. Certain
after-market products may or may not be compatible with your FUZION kneeboard.
Call Nextsport’s customer service prior to modifying or replacing any component with
a non-factory specified part.
WARNING: CHECK ALL LOCAL LAWS REGARDING KNEEBOARD USE.
Check all local laws and regulations to see where and how you may use your
FUZION kneeboard legally. In many states and local areas kneeboard riders are
required BY LAW to wear a helmet. Check and obey local laws and regulations regard-
ing laws governing helmet use and kneeboard operation in your area.
