The Pre-Ride Inspection
It’s a good idea to give your miniZüm a quick once-
over every time before heading out, to make sure
all the parts are in working order.
✔
Are the wheels secure? Check that the quick-
release handles are tight against the body of
the miniZüm, and that the axle nuts are tight.
✔
How is the tire pressure? Be sure there is
adequate pressure (43 PSI) and no punctures
or bald spots on the tires.
✔
Are the wheels straight? Spin each wheel
to make sure it does not wobble. Also check
to make sure that the tire is centered in the
scooter frame and fork.
✔
Are the brakes working properly? Make sure
the front and rear brakes properly engage the
rim with the brake pads. Ensure that when the
brake levers are squeezed, the levers do not
touch the handlebars (you should be able to fit
two fingers between the engaged brake lever
and the handlebar).
✔
Are the handlebars, grips and handlebar stem
attached tightly and properly?
✔
How is the battery? Make sure the battery
is properly attached and securely locked in
place. Press the LED button on the battery to
check the power levels and charge if needed.
By performing regular check-ups on your miniZüm
you will make sure it remains in good working
order. Regular maintenance and tune ups are also
recommended.
Final Adjustments and Preparations
When you took your miniZüm out of the box, you
probably noticed that it looked like it was ready to
go. There are just a couple of adjustments to make
before heading out so it’s customized perfectly to
your needs.
Final Adjustments:
1. Place the miniZüm on the ground, resting on
the side kickstand
2. Unfold the handlebar/folding stem, put it in the
upright position and tighten the folding stem
lever into position.
3. Engage the safety latch on the folding stem
lever as shown in Fig. 3. It must be secure.

4. Height adjustment: slide the handle bar height
up or down to a comfortable level by opening
the clamp, Adjust the height while making
sure to remain within the stem lock safe line
minimum position shown in Fig 4.
5. Inflate the tires to 43 PSI.
6. Before your first ride, you must test the brakes.
Adjust if needed.
