TILLER ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

WARNING! Remove the key before adjusting the tiller. Never attempt to adjust the tiller while the scooter is in motion.

You can adjust the tiller to any number of positions be- tween the forward stop and the scooter deck. The tiller adjustment lever locks the tiller in position.

1.Push down on the tiller adjustment lever. See figure 11.

2.Move the tiller to a comfortable position.

3.Release the tiller adjustment lever. The tiller remains in the position you selected.

NOTE: In order to lower the tiller to the scooter deck, you must first remove the seat and both batteries. See IX. “Disassembly and Assembly.”

SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

The seat can be repositioned to one of three different heights.

1.Remove the seat and shroud from your Sidekick. See IX. “Disassembly and Assembly.”

2.Use the attached ring to pull and remove the ball de- tent pin from the seat post tower. See figure 12.

3.Raise or lower the seat pedestal to the desired seat height.

4.While holding the seat pedestal at that height, match up the holes in the seat pedestal and in the lower seat post.

5.Fully insert the ball detent pin.

6.Reinstall the seat.

ARMREST WIDTH ADJUSTMENT

The Sidekick armrest width can be adjusted inward or outward.
