Safety warning:
For your safety we recommend that you read the entire manual before assembling or using this scooter. Mod
Scooters also recommends periodically reviewing all the information in this manual with any younger rider who may
use this scooter.
Before you ride:
It is good practice to check your scooter before you ride. Younger riders may need assistance. (see maintenance
and assembly section)
Replace all worn parts on your scooter immediately. Riding with worn parts can be hazardous for both
the rider and scooter.
Mod Scooters have been designed to a high standard. Only replace worn parts with genuine Mod
Scooter spares and accessories. Customising your scooter with other non Mod accessories will
invalidate any warranty.
Always wear proper protective equipment such as a helmet, knee and elbow pads, making sure they
are adjusted to fit securely. Some skateparks will require appropriate safety equipment to be worn for
entry to be granted so it is good practice to wear it at all times.
Always wear appropriate foot wear. Never try riding without shoes or in loose footwear. Never wear
sandals and always keep shoe laces secure and away from moving parts.
Bolts, etc can work lose and parts can wear over time, so check your scooter every time you ride.
Scootering can be dangerous, so use this scooter at your own risk and above all use with common
sense.
Under NO circumstance use your scooter in the wet. Wheel and headset bearings will seize, the grip
tape will start to peel or fall off and the scooter may rust. No part however new that has been used in
wet or damp conditions is applicable to any warranty or replacement.
Safe riding:
Always look up when riding and keep both hands on the handlebars at all times.
Before riding make sure the scooter fork is facing forward.
Only ride on smooth flat surfaces away from roads and motor vehicles, avoiding drainage grates and
sudden surface changes. Failure to do this may result in the scooter stopping suddenly.
Be aware of your surroundings. Watch out for pedestrians, animals, bikes and other riders etc.
Avoid surfaces with water, wet leaves, sand, ice and loose stones or grit on them.
Never use your scooter on grass or in the mud.
Never ride with a motorised device.
Always leave enough room to slow or stop. Be aware that different conditions and surfaces will alter
your stopping distance.
Excessive use of the brake will flat spot wheels, so avoid braking excessively for long periods of time.
The brake can also become hot after use so do not touch this with your bare hands.
Remember to be aware of other riders when riding. It is also polite to practice "scooter etiquette" when
at skate parks to avoid any collisions with other riders. Take it in turns and don't rush into dropping in,
as it is dangerous and not polite!
Trick riding will damage the scooter faster as no one ever lands his or her first trick without binning it a
few times. Advanced riders will wear more parts than most - fact!
This scooter is designed to the highest manufacturing standards and is extremely durable, however
parts in time will wear and are not impervious to damage. Regular maintenance will prolong the
scooters life.

Assembling your
scooter:
Step 1: To assemble your new scooter first unpack all components ensuring all small parts are kept safe. Then
remove the front wheel from the fork using two allen keys.
Step 2: Slide the fork into the headset from the bottom. Slide plastic headset wedge on top of the fork, then metal
spacer washer and then headset top cap. (ref image “a”)
Step 3: Place the handle bars over your forks and tilt your scooter upside down. Tighten and align the M6 ICS bolt
that goes from the bottom of your forks into a starnut which is pre-welded inside your bars. (ref image “b”)
Step 4: As the ICS bolt becomes tighter align your front wheel so that it is facing forwards with your bars.
Step 5: Tighten up your clamp, it is very important to tighten each bolt a turn at a time. This ensures an even and
secure grip around your bars and eliminates the risk of threading your clamp. (ref image “c”)
Note Image “d” shows the internal section of your scooter. It shows the Fork, Clamp, Starnut and Bars.
Please check all bolts are tight before use and also recheck regularly. Please read the general maintenance
section of this manual.
Changing your wheels or Bearings:
1. Remove the wheel from your scooter using the provided allen keys. (ref pic 1)
2. Knock out the bearings carefully from the middle using an allen key or punch and a hammer.
3. Keep the spacer from the middle safe.
4. Press one of the bearings into your wheel you may need to use a vice to keep it square or tap gently
with a rubber hammer.
5. Insert the wheel spacer, ensuring it remains in an upright position.
6. Press in your second bearing and reassemble back onto the scooter.
