Apply the lubricant to the different parts and let it sit a few minutes and then wipe off the
excess lubricant with a rag.
After a while, clean the different parts with a degreaser to remove any excess dirt that
has been collected on them.
Schedule
The frequency of maintenance depends on how much you ride and under which
conditions. Recreational riders need far less maintenance then off-road riders. The
harder you ride, the more you have to take care of your scooter if you want it to last.
There are various time intervals for proper maintenance. Quick maintenance should be
done before & after every ride. More thorough maintenance steps should be taken
every couple of months.
Battery Care
All batteries are sealed and SHOULD NOT be taken apart without proper knowledge.
Battery life is various based on the type, condition, usage and maintenance. Average
battery life for SLA (sealed lead acid battery) is 2 years / 400 charge cycles.
The battery should be stored between 0 and 35°C. To maximize battery lifetime, store at
50% to 100% charge capacity, and recharge the battery every 4-6 weeks.
The battery MUST be charged using the original charger that was supplied with the
scooter.
Note: There are many chargers in the market that look similar but the polarity might be
different.
Do not break or burn the battery. The battery acid substrates contained inside are highly
corrosive and flammable and may cause severe injuries or explosion. If this should
occur, rinse with plenty of water and call emergency services immediately.
Battery capacity diminishes in temperatures below 15 degrees C, and will reduce
distance capability by 20%-30%.
Keep the battery away from fire, heat, and other caustic substances.
All battery types, regardless of their chemical make-up, will self-discharge if left unused
for a period of time. Some batteries will have a lower discharge rate than others, so it’s
important to make sure you are taking care of them.
♻
Always dispose of old batteries through an approved battery recycler, and keep children
and pets away from batteries.
