REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE
CONNECTORS/HARDWARE MAINTENANCE
Safety Gear
Always wear proper protective gear such as an approved safety
helmet. Elbow pads and kneepads are recommended. Always
wear athletic shoes (lace-up shoes with rubber soles), never ride
barefooted or in sandals, and keep shoelaces tied and out of the
way of the wheels, motor and drive system.
Battery
Make sure the power switch is turned off whenever the scooter is
not in use. Never store the product in freezing or below freezing
temperatures! Freezing will permanently damange the battery.
Brake
Check the brakes for proper function. When you squeeze the lever,
the brake should provide positive braking action. When you apply
the brake with the speed control on, the brake cut-off switch
should stop the motor. Make sure that brakes are not rubbing.
Frame, Fork and Handlebars
Check for cracks or broken connections. Although broken frames
are rare, it is possible for an aggressive rider to run into a curb
or wall and wreck and bend or break a frame. Get in the habit of
inspecting your scooter on a regular basis.
Tires
Periodically inspect the tires for excess wear, and regularly check
the tires pressure and re-inflate as necessary.

Do not use this product for the first time until you have inflated the
tires to the correct PSI and charged the battery for at least 18 hours.
Failure to follow these instructions may damage
your product and void your warranty.
Turn power switch “OFF” before conducting any maintenance procedures.
WARNING:
The brake is capable of skidding
the rear tire and throwing an
unsuspecting rider. Practice
in an open area free from
obstacles until you are familiar
with the brake function. Avoid
skidding to a stop as this can
cause you to lose control and/or
damage the rear tire.

If the brake is too tight or too
loose, use a 10mm open wrench
to loosen the nut for additional
adjustment on the brake cable.
Securely tighten the nut when
finished.

To adjust the brake cable
play, thread the brake lever
adjuster in or out 1/4 to 1/2
turn until the desired brake
adjustment is attained. Most
adjustments are complete at
this step. If brake still needs
further adjustment, proceed to
step 2.
