Assembly and Set-Up

qAttaching the Handlebars

WARNING: Failure to recharge the battery at least once a month may result in

a battery that will no longer accept a charge.

1Loosen the locking knob and swing to the 6 o’clock position to unfold the handlebar.

4Using a 6mm hexagonal key wrench, tighten the wedge by turning the bolt clockwise. The wedge is properly tightened when the handlebars cannot be twisted out of alignment with the front wheel.

2Remove the plastic protec- tor covering the base of the handlebar assembly. Insert the “quill” part of the handlebar assembly into the fork. You may have to loosen the wedge to allow it to slip into the fork.

5Pivot the handlebar assem- bly upright.

3Slide the quill into the fork until it bottoms on the headset.

6Swing the locking knob to the 12 o’clock position and tighten by hand as firmly as possible.

WARNING: Failure to properly tighten the wedge may allow the handlebars to dislodge while riding and may cause you to lose control and fall. When correctly tightened, the handlebars will not rotate out of alignment with the front wheel under normal circumstances.

WARNING: Keep your fingers clear of the pivoting mechanism when folding or unfolding the scooter, and make sure others are standing clear.

Note: The cable and wire assembly from the handlebar must not wrap around the steering tube or handlebar as shown in step 3. Sharp bends or twisting of the brake cable can cause the brakes to malfunction.

qInflating the Tires

Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and your purchase. Always inflate tires to the correct PSI before first time use.

Rear Tire

WARNING: Failure to remove the valve adapter after inflating will cause the inner tube and/or adapter to be severed by the rear drive sprocket.

Note: If you lose the valve, one can be purchased at almost any auto parts store.

1Use the valve extender/ adapter located in the end of the right handlebar grip.

2Open the round cover located on the chain cover by sliding the cover upward. Align the opening in the drive sprocket with the valve stem. Thread the adapter completely onto the valve stem and attach the pump. Inflate to the PSI indicated on the tire sidewall.

3Remove valve adapter immediately after inflating and close the round cover.

Note: The pressurized air supplies found at gasoline stations are designed to inflate high-volume automobile tires. If you decide to use such an air supply to inflate your electric scooter tires, first make sure the pressure gauge is working, then use very short bursts to inflate to the correct PSI. If you inadvertently over-inflate the tire, release the excess pressure immediately.
