The Razor PowerWing Lightshow is a unique, self-propelling wheeled product designed for recreational use by children aged 6 and older, with a maximum weight capacity of 143 lb (65 kg). This owner's manual provides essential safety warnings, assembly instructions, usage guidelines, and maintenance information to ensure safe operation and longevity of the product.
Function Description:
The PowerWing Lightshow is a three-wheeled scooter-like device that allows riders to propel themselves without pushing off the ground. It features a handlebar stem, a front fork assembly with a light-up front wheel, and a deck assembly with two platforms, each equipped with a rear caster and a light-up rear wheel. The unique design allows for propulsion through a side-to-side motion of the rider's hips and legs, shifting weight on the platforms. The device also incorporates a "Lightshow" feature with LED lights on the deck and wheels, activated by a vibration sensor when the PowerWing Lightshow is in motion. The deck lights remain on for approximately 20 seconds after the device stops moving and reactivate when motion resumes. There are five different light modes, which can be cycled through by pressing a button located on the front left side of the deck. Stopping is achieved by squeezing a hand brake lever located on the handlebar.
