SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING:
Riding a RipStik Rush does present potential risks and
caution is required. Like any riding product, a RipStik Rush has inherent
hazards associated with its use (for example, falling off or riding it into a
hazardous situation). Like any riding product, the RipStik Rush can and is
intended to move and it is therefore, of course, possible to lose control
or otherwise get into dangerous situations. Both children, and adults
responsible for supervising them, must recognize that if such things occur, a
rider can be seriously injured or die even when using safety equipment and
other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
WARNING:
PARENTAL AND ADULT RESPONSIBILITY AND
SUPERVISION IS NECESSARY:
Because products, like the RipStik Rush,
can and do present potential hazards plainly associated with their use, it is
well recognized THE NEED FOR EXERCISE OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
IN SELECTING RIDING PRODUCTS APPROPRIATE TO THE AGE OF A CHILD,
OR PARENTAL SUPERVISION IN SITUATIONS IN WHICH CHILDREN OF
VARIOUS AGES MAY HAVE ACCESS TO THE SAME RIDING PRODUCTS, IS
IMPORTANT. Not every product is appropriate for every age or size of child,
and different age recommendations are found within this category of product
which are intended to reflect the nature of the hazards and the expected
mental or physical ability, or both, of a child to cope with the hazards.
WARNING:
NOT FOR RIDERS UNDER AGE 9 OR HEAVIER THAN
143 LB (65 KG). DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 143 lb (65 kg)
– including backpacks and other items that might be carried. Exceeding the
weight limit could injure the rider and damage the RipStik Rush. Rider weight
alone also does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit
or maintain control of the RipStik Rush. Keep this product away from small
children and remember that this product is intended for use only by persons
who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and competent while
operating the product.
Razor recommends that children under the age of 9 not be permitted to
use this product. This recommendation is based not just on age or weight
or height; it reflects consideration of expected maturity and skills as well
as physical size. The recommended rider age of 9 years or older is only an
estimate and can be affected by the rider’s size, weight, or skills – not every
rider 9 years old or older will be suited to the product. Certainly, any rider
unable to fit comfortably on the RipStik Rush should not attempt to ride it,
but
a parent’s decision to allow his or her child to ride this product
should be based on the child’s maturity, skill, and ability to follow
rules. Razor emphasizes that adults are strongly advised not to
disregard Razor’s recommendations or permit younger children to
ride the RipStik Rush.
Keep this product away from small children and remember that it is
intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely
comfortable and competent while operating.
Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them
susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity or mental capabilities
to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions and to be able to
understand the hazards inherent in the use of any ride-on product, should
not use or be permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities.
Persons with heart conditions, head, back or neck ailments (or prior surgeries
to these areas of the body), or pregnant women, should be cautioned not to
operate such products.
DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 143 lb (65 kg). Rider weight
does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or
maintain control of the RipStik Rush.
CHECK AND MAINTAIN PRODUCT CONDITIONS
Before use, check to confirm that covers and guards are in place and in
serviceable condition. Check that the wheels are free of flat spots from
wear. The product should be maintained and repaired in accordance with
the manufacturer’s specifications, using only the manufacturer’s authorized
replacement parts, and should not be modified from the manufacturer’s
original design and configuration.
ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations which may
affect the locations where the RipStik Rush may be used. Keep
safely away from cars and motor vehicle traffic at all times. Only use
where allowed and with caution.
Do not activate the remote unless you are on the RipStik Rush and
in a safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding.
The RipStik Rush must
be moving at least 3 mph (5 km/h) with the lever on the remote in
the “Go” position before the motor will engage.
To push/kick start the
RipStik Rush before engaging motor, it is recommended that the rider place
forward foot on front deck and push start using rear foot (see page 7).
The normal powered top speed of this product will be approximately 10 mph
(16 km/h), which can be affected by conditions, such as rider weight, inclines
and battery charge level. Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated with
downhill rides.
Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid
pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who
may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.
The RipStik Rush is intended for use on flat, dry surfaces, such as pavement
or level ground, without loose debris, such as sand, leaves, rocks or
gravel. Wet, slick, bumpy, uneven or rough surfaces may impair traction
and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride your product in mud, ice,
puddles or water. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Avoid sharp bumps,
drainage grates, and sudden surface changes.
Do not attempt or do stunts or tricks. The RipStik Rush is not made to
withstand abuse from misuse, such as jumping, curb grinding or any other
type of stunts. Racing, stunt riding, or other maneuvers also enhance risk of
loss of control, or may cause uncontrolled rider actions or reactions.
Never allow more than one person at a time to ride the product.
Do not ride at night or when visibility is limited.
Never use near steps or swimming pools.
Do not allow hands, feet, hair, body parts, clothing, or similar articles to come
in contact with moving parts or wheels while the motor is engaged.
