Operating and Riding the Electric Balancer
CHECK AND MAINTAIN
Before every use, check that the bike is in proper working order. The
bike should be maintained and repaired in accordance with the
manufacturer’s specifications, using only the manufacturers
authorized replacement parts, and should not be modified from the
manufacturer’s original design and configuration.
PRE-RIDE INSPECTION AND CHECKLIST
Power Switch: Ensure that the Power Switch is turned off during the
Pre-Ride Inspection and remains ‘OFF’ until the rider is sitting on the
seat, both hands gripping the handlebars, pulling the brake lever, and both
feet flat on the ground.
Throttle: Ensure the Power Switch is turned off. Check that the
throttle rotates freely, and the return spring returns the throttle back
to ‘ZERO’ position from the ‘FULL’. Ensure there are no cracks, dirt or
visible damage that may cause the throttle to stick in the open
position.
Brake: Check brake for proper function. When you squeeze the lever,
the brake should provide positive braking action. Slight rubbing is
normal.
Tires: Inspect the tires for excess wear. Regularly check the pressure
and inflate as per tire specifications.
Frame, Fork, Stem and Handlebars: Check for cracks and loose hardware.
Broken components are rare, however it is possible to break parts after
you have crashed. It is important to make a regular habit of inspecting
your Balancer every time you ride it.
Hardware/Loose Parts: Check all your hardware such as nuts, bolts,
cables, fasteners, etc., to ensure that they are secure. There should not
be any unusual rattles or sounds from loose parts or broken
components. If the unit is damaged, do not ride it. Reference
‘Warnings’ listed in this manual.
Laws and Regulations: Check and obey local laws or regulations prior
