TIRE MAINTENANCE

Make sure that the air pressure for all tires is correct. If the tires have less than the recommended amount of pressure, this may cause the unit the handle poorly or cause damage to the tires. Use an air pressure gauge to check for the air pressure of the tire.

DO NOT USE GAS STATION AIR FILLING STATIONS AS THE PRESSURE IS USUALLY TOO HIGH AND THE GAUGES ARE INACCURATE. OVER INFLATION OF THE TIRE COULD CAUSE A BLOW OUT AND CRASH.

A lubricant or oil should be applied to the wheel bearings monthly or more often if ridden in extremely wet or dusty conditions.

THE GAS CHOPPER SCOOTER™ FRONT WHEEL UTILIZES RETENTION WASHERS TO KEEP THE FRONT WHEEL FROM DISENGAGING IF THE AXLE NUTS ARE INSUFFICIENTLY TIGHTENED. RETENTION WASHER ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR CORRECT AXLE NUT TIGHTENING. PERMANENT REMOVAL OR DISABLING THE RETENTION WASHERS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. IT ALSO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

TIRE/TUBE REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR

1.Depress the valve stem and completely deflate the tire.

2.On the outside of each rim, there are several Allen bolts. Remove all three of these bolts. If you are removing the front tire and tube, you will need to remove three long sensor magnets before you loosen the three Allen bolts. Simply turn them counter-clockwise to remove them.

3.Remove each half of the rim from the tire. If it seems that the rim is difficult to pull off the tire, you can use a flat tip screwdriver to pry the tire away from the rim.

4.Remove the tube.

5.Examine the inside of the tire.

6.If you are going to repair your existing tube, you will need to purchase a tube repair kit. These can be purchased at any bicycle shop. To repair the tube, follow the instructions supplied with the tube repair kit.

7.Place your new/repaired tube inside of the tire with the valve stem pointing towards the center. Filling the tube with a very small amount of air can aid in the proper placement of the tube.

8.Align each half of the rim so that the valve stem hole matches up perfectly with the valve stem.

9.Insert the three Allen bolts and tighten the wheel together.

10.Inflate the tire to the recommended 50PSI.

BE SURE THAT THE TUBE IS NOT PINCHED BETWEEN EACH RIM HALF AND TO REMOVE ANY DEBRIS OR FOREIGN OBJECTS THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THE TUBE TO PUNCTURE

IF THE TIRE IS CUT, YOU MUST REPLACE THE TIRE TO PREVENT ANY SUDDEN AND CATASTROPHIC FAILURE CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL, SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Replacement parts are able to be purchased by calling the Electra Customer Service at 1-888-967-1234M-F 10am - 9pm EST or by visiting Electra's website at www.electraUSA.com.

PATCHING A TUBE IS AN EMERGENCY REPAIR. CARELESS PATCHING OR APPLYING SEVERAL PATCHES CAN SERIOUSLY WEAKEN THE TUBE, RESULTING IN POSSIBLE TUBE FAILURE, WHICH COULD CAUSE YOU TO LOOSE CONTROL AND FALL. REPLACE A PATCHED TUBE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

RIDING YOUR GAS CHOPPER SCOOTER™ WITH A FLAT OR UNDER- INFLATED TIRE CAN SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE TIRE, RIM (WHEEL), TUBE, AND THE GAS CHOPPER SCOOTER™. IT MAY ALSO CAUSE YOU TO LOSE CONTROL AND FALL.
