Wheels
The PU wheels wear down with time and can be damaged if used frequently on rough surfaces. The rear wheel on which the brake is applied is particularly affected after several hours of braking. Replace if necessary. Damaged wheels or rims can lead to accidents! The wheels must not come into contact with oil, grease or fuel. The wheels might not rotate smoothly anymore when the bearings are affected by sand, water or filthiness. Clean the bearings or replace them if necessary.

Deck, brake & steering mechanism
Check if the parts of the steering mechanism still rotate smoothly. Sand, water of filthiness might affect good functioning. For cleaning, use warm water or a damp cloth. Especially the area marked by arrow, see image. Check if all nuts and bolts are still tight and in a good condition. Tighten or replace if necessary. The screws can become loose or worn out after a long period of use. Check if all screws are still tight and in a good condition. Tighten or replace if necessary. The brake should only be touching the rear wheel when applying pressure to it. Make sure it bends back after each time you brake. Replace if necessary.

Handlebar
The handlebar and the deck should always be tightly connected. Check this by leaning left and right. Any play between these parts makes it more difficult to steer properly. Check if all three height positions can be securely locked. The handlebar will get wobbly if the clamp doesn’t function properly. The bolts can become loose or worn out after a long period of use. Check if all bolts are still tight and in a good condition. Tighten or replace if necessary.
