Operating and Riding the Electric Balancer
CHECK AND MAINTAIN
Before use, check that the THUMPSTAR electric balancer is in proper
working order. The balancer should be maintained and repaired in
accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications, using only the
manufacturers authorized replacement parts, and should not be
modified from the manufacturer’s original design and configuration.
PRE-RIDE INSPECTION AND CHECKLIST
Power Switch:
Ensure that the Power Switch is turned off during the
Pre-Ride Inspection and remains ‘OFF’ until the rider is sitting on the
saddle, both hands gripping the handlebars, both feet flat on the ground.
Throttle:
Ensure the Power Switch is turned off. Check that the throttle
rotates freely, and the return spring returns the throttle back to ‘ZERO’
position from the ‘FULL’. Ensure there are no cracks or visible damage.
Brake: Check brake for proper function. When you squeeze the lever, the
brake should provide positive braking action. Slight rubbing is normal.
Tires:
Inspect the tires for excess wear. Regularly check the pressure and
inflate as per tire specifications.
Frame, Fork, Stem and Handlebars:
Check for cracks and loose hardware.
Broken components are rare, however it is possible to break parts after you
have crashed. It is important to make a regular habit of inspecting your
Balancer every time you ride it.
Hardware/Loose Parts:
Check all your hardware such as nuts, bolts,
cables, fasteners, etc., to ensure that they are secure. There should not be
any unusual rattles or sounds from loose parts or broken components.
If the unit is damaged, do not ride it. Reference ‘Warnings’ listed in this
manual.
Laws and Regulations:
Check and obey local laws or regulations prior to
riding.
