5.4. HAND THROTTLE CONTROL
• ENVO scooters are equipped with a thumb throttle located on the handlebar
• Like on a motorcycle, a scooter throttle is designed to let the user apply 0-100% of the motor’s
power at will.
• You control the throttle by pushing on the thumb attachment. The farther the throttle switch
is from its resting position; the more power is delivered to the motor to accelerate the ENVO
Electric Scooter
• When you want to slow down, you release the throttle and let it return to its resting position, and
simultaneously apply the brakes.
5.5. BRAKES
• The E50 Scooter is equipped with Rear disc brake and front drum brake for maximum reliability.
Applying pressure to the brake levers will cause the brake pads to cause friction slowing the
wheel. The more pressure applied to the brake lever, the faster the Electric Bike will come to a
stop
• The E35 Scooter is equipped with Rear e-brake and front drum brake. The front brake acts on
the principle of friction while the rear brake using electromagnetic forces to brake the scooter.
• ENVO scooter brakes are equipped with microswitches that cut off the motor power whenever
the brake levers are squeezed. You should check the operation of your brake disconnect switch
before every ride: While riding slowly in a controlled environment (like your driveway), engage
the motor then squeeze each brake separately. The motor should lose power immediately and
remain off as long as a brake lever is depressed
The cable switch can be disconnected, come loose, or malfunction – so always perform a
check before you ride. Be sure to pull both brakes in an emergency or when you need the
motor to disengage.
• Always apply both brakes simultaneously. Applying only one brake to slow or stop at high
speeds may result in the rider lossing control. It is best to apply even pressure to both brake
levers when slowing or stopping
• Make sure that the brake lever does not contact the handlebar when full hand pressure is
applied. If so, then the brakes must be adjusted by increasing the tension on the cable
