WARNING: Always ensure that you are in a safe open area to ride before you engage the throttle. Never twist the throttle without being on the
scooter in a balanced, ready to ride position with both hands on the handlebar controls. Failure to follow these instructions may damage your
scooter and void your warranty.
Before You Ride
Before you ride always check and for the following:
Safety Gear
Always wear proper protective gear such as:
• Approved safety helmet. (Helmet may be legally required by local law or regulation in your area.)
• Elbow pads and knees pads
• Long sleeved shirt, long pants
• Gloves
• Lace up shoes with rubber soles.
Brake
Check the brakes for proper function. When lever is squeezed it should slow/stop the rear wheel without excessive effort. When you apply the brake with the throttle
on, the brake cut off switch should stop the motor. Make sure that the brakes are not rubbing when the lever is not being squeezed. Do not ride the scooter if the
brakes are not functioning properly.
Throttle
Make sure that before throttle is twisted that you are in an open and safe area to ride, you are balanced on the scooter and have both hands on the handlebar
controls. Push start scooter to approximately 3mph while twisting throttle in order for motor to engage. The scooter must be rolling at 3mph before the motor will
engage.
Tires
Inspect the wheels for excess wear and replace if necessary.
Frame, Fork and Components
Always carefully inspect your scooter before you ride. Check for cracks, broken worn or loose components which should be repaired or replaced before you ride.
Battery
Always make sure the power switch is in the “off” position whenever the scooter is not in use. Never store the product in freezing or below freezing temperatures.
These low temperatures will permanently damage the battery.
WARNING: The brake could be capable of locking up and skidding the rear wheel if not applied correctly. Always try and avoid skidding as this
could cause you to lose control of the scooter and will cause damage to the rear tire. Practice using the brake in an unobstructed open area to
become familiar with its function and can make smooth controlled stops.
Repair and Maintenance
WARNING: Turn the power switch "OFF" before conducting any maintenance procedures.
Adjusting the Brakes

increments until the desired adjustment is reached. If
brake continues to need further adjustment proceed to
the next step.
2. If the brake cable is still either too tight or too loose
use a 10mm wrench to loosen the brake cable pinch
bolt for further adjustment on the cable. Ensure that
the 10mm nut is securely tightened after the
