REGULAR MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
Under normal use, your board will require only routine maintenance as described below.
MAINTENANCE WARNING
FAILURE TO FOLLOW MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDELINES WILL VOID YOUR
WARRANTY. DO NOT OPEN THE BATTERY BOX, MOTOR CONTROL BOX ASSEMBLY OR MOTOR.
DOING SO WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. YOUR ALTERED
®
ELECTRIC SKATEBOARD IS NOT
WATERPROOF AND MUST NOT BE RIDDEN IN THE RAIN, MUD, OR OTHER WET AREAS TO PREVENT
ELECTRICAL DAMAGE. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR BOARD CLEAN AND FREE OF MOISTURE.
Tighten Fittings – BUT DON’T OVERTIGHTEN!
Vibrations from normal use can cause some of the external bolt and screw fittings to loosen over time. Check
all fasteners for tightness before every use, especially if used on rough surfaces that cause vibration. This will
require an allen wrench and a few different sized sockets or open-ended wrenches. Check and tighten all
screws and nuts after every 4 to 5 hours of riding. Do not over-tighten as stripping can result. Snug is tight
enough.
Keep the Board Dry
Your electric skateboard is not waterproof and must not be ridden in the rain, mud, or other wet areas to
prevent electrical damage. Always keep your board clean and dry.
Trucks & Bushings Are NOT Adjustable (unlike regular skateboards)
The patented Exkate trucks are not like conventional skateboard trucks. TIGHTENING THE TRUCKS DOES
NOT CHANGE THE STIFFNESS OR TURNING RADIUS. DO NOT ADJUST THE TRUCK’S KINGPIN BOLT
OR YOU CAN SPLIT THE BUSHING! The trucks and bushings are factory preset and should not be adjusted.
The bushings are specially formulated to absorb shock and provide positive steering control. Although
specially formulated for extremely long life, the bushings located in the trucks of your board will wear over
time. Replace them with the same special bushings that are standard equipment on the board. They are
available through www.AlteredUSA.com or your local dealer.
Drive Wheel
The drive wheel will wear considerably more than the other three wheels. If you start noticing that your board
is grinding, you need to replace the drive wheel. Contact www.AlteredUSA.com or your local dealer to order
replacement wheels and other parts.
Battery Maintenance
The rechargeable battery powering your Altered
®
board will normally last 1-2 years (1000 to 1500 miles of
riding) if kept properly charged, but will slowly decrease in capacity and eventually fail to hold a charge. To
maintain maximum life, always keep your batteries charged when storing for extended periods of time.
Charge your board at least once a month to maintain battery life. Recharge your board even after short
rides to maintain healthy batteries. Order replacement batteries from www.AlteredUSA.com or your dealer.
Drive Belt
Drive belts will last a long time, but eventually will wear out. Hard starts and stops and heavier riders
accelerate drive belt wear. Replacements can be ordered from www.AlteredUSA.com or your local dealer.
