SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: SPARKS CAN INDUCE FIRE
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or FIRE:
PARENTS and RIDERS: Make sure riders understand that sparks can start a fire. Keep sparks away from flammable or combustible substances. Use only under close adult supervision.
BE RESPONSIBLE: Safety is important. Parents must review the following warnings and instructions with each rider:
- Never use your caster trike to try to start a fire. Your caster trike emits localized sparks when the Spark Bar on a moving trike comes in contact with hardened outdoor surfaces, like asphalt or concrete. Be responsible.
- For outdoor use only on solid, clean, dry hardened surfaces. Keep sparks away from substances that can catch fire, such as dry vegetation, paper, chemicals or gasoline. Sparks can induce fire.
- Do not use in any area prone to wildfires or posted by fire authorities as a Fire Hazard Zone.
- Do not ride at night.
- Keep sparks away from eyes, hair, exposed skin and clothing. Sparks can burn.
- Pull up on the Spark Handle to operate sparking feature. NEVER push down directly on the Spark Bar, spark cartridge or cartridge cover itself.
- Spark Bar gets hot during use. Do not touch after use.
Observe all other spark safety warnings and instructions as provided elsewhere in this manual.
**** WARNING: Riding the FlashRider™ 360˚ Caster Trike can be a hazardous activity. Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the manufacturer. The FlashRider 360˚ Caster Trike can and is intended to move, and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or get into dangerous situations that no amount of care, instruction or expertise can eliminate. If such things occur you can be seriously injured or die, even when using safety equipment and other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the consequences of failing to maintain, inspect or properly use your FlashRider 360˚ Caster Trike. Because any incident can result in serious injury or even death, we do not repeat the warning of potential serious injury or death each time such a possibility is mentioned.
APPROPRIATE RIDER USE AND PARENTAL SUPERVISION
This manual contains important safety information. It is your responsibility
to review this information and make sure that all riders understand all
warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics, and assure that young
riders are able to safely and responsibly use this product. Razor recommends
that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual with
younger riders, and that you inspect and maintain your child’s FlashRider 360°
to ensure their safety.
The recommended rider age of 6 and older for FlashRider 360˚ Caster Trike is only an estimate, and can be affected by the rider’s size, weight or skills. Any rider unable to fit comfortably on the FlashRider 360˚ Caster Trike should not attempt to ride it. A parent’s decision to allow his or her child to ride this product should be based on the child’s maturity, skill and ability to follow rules.
Keep this product away from children under the age of 6 and remember that this product is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and competent while operating the FlashRider 360° and who understand the risks presented by such products.

PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
USAGE
Using the Spark Bar Handle
WARNING: Pulling the Spark Bar Handle upwards too strenuously may cause loss of control.
NOTE: Sparks and Spark cartridge life will vary based on the amount of pressure applied by Spark Bar Handle, the length of time pressure is applied and the smoothness of the riding surface.
REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Wipe with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Do not use industrial cleaners
or solvents, as they may damage the surfaces. Do not use alcohol, alcohol-
based or ammonia-based cleaners, as they may damage or dissolve the plastic
components or soften the decals or decal adhesive.
Replacing the Spark Cartridge
Friction during sparking will eventually wear out the replaceable cartridge
and cause the trike to stop making sparks. Worn out cartridges should be
replaced.
Wheels and Bearings
Under normal circumstances and conditions, Razor wheels and wheel bearings are
maintenance free. Nonetheless, it is the responsibility of the owner or
guardian to periodically inspect the wheels for wear and tear, the axle for
proper tightness, bearings for side-to-side play, and for loose parts. When a
wheel develops play, this is an indication of excess wear and replacement is
necessary. Replace immediately with only genuine Razor wheels. Worn wheels/
bearings are considered normal wear-and-tear and are not covered by the Razor
Warranty. Wheels other than genuine Razor wheels may not be compatible with
your Razor scooter. The use of anything other than genuine Razor replacement
parts may affect your safety and will void your warranty.
