7. Maintenance
7 (ENG) 8
Regularly check the ghtening of the various bolted elements, in parcular the
wheel axles, the folding system, the steering system and the brakes.
Cleaning - To clean the scooter use a damp so cloth. A brush can be used to
clean off dirt that is harder to remove. DO NOT use alcohol or other solvents to
clean the scooter. DO NOT clean the scooter with a pressure washer, hose or
with splashing water. The scooter is not waterproof. Any water damage voids the
warranty.
Tire Pressure - inflate both res to 3 bar (40psi). Check for re pressure aer
receiving the scooter from the dealer, and regularly aerwards. If one of the res
is damaged or won’t hold air then stop riding the scooter.
Tightening the folding mechanism - To ghten the folding system, first release
the screw A on figure 3, on both sides. Turn clockwise the screw B on figure 3,
located at the front end. Do this on both sides. Finally reghten the screws A on
figure 3.
Tightening the handlebar folding mechanism - To ghten the handlebar, open the
sleeves and fold the handlebar. Inside you find a 3mm hex screw (see figure 4).
Using the hex key, gradually turn the screw counterclockwise. Check every lile
while if the handlebar is ght enough. If the handlebar does not lock into the
driving posion turn the hex screw to the opposite direcon.
Storage - Turn the scooter off and disconnect the charger during storage. Make
sure that the baery is about 50-60% charged. You should check how much
charge the baery has le at least once a month. If the baery charge has
decreased, charge the scooter unl the baery has about 50-60% charge. Store the scooter in a dry
room at about 15 to 25°C.
WARNING! As with any mechanical component, a vehicle is subject to high stresses and wear. The
various materials and components may react differently to ware and fague. If the expected service life
for a component has been exceeded, it may break suddenly, therefore risking causing injuries to the user.
Cracks, scratches and discoloraon in the areas subject to high stresses indicate that the component has
exceeded its service life and should be replaced.
