OWNER’S MANUAL
TABOR HR1 Electric Skateboard
WARNING!
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
Skateboarding, electric or otherwi se, is a dangerous activity. You put
yourself at risk of death or serious injury every time you ride a skateboard.
Appropriate precautions naturally mitigate these risks.
NEVER CHARGE your board UNATTENDED!
AVOID WATER ! Your Hoyt St board is water resistant, not waterproof. The
electronics and other components are susceptible to water damage.
ELECTRIC SHOCK RISK! Open the deck at your own risk. We have strived to make
the electronics as safe as possible but with great power comes great
responsibility. Best to stay away from the electronics to avoid a short or
electric shock.
PINCH POINTS at the motor end of your board can grab fingers, hair and loose
clothing. Keep clear of the motors, belts, pulleys and other moving parts.
MAINTENANCE is important to keep your board in safe and optimal condition.
Familiarize yourself with the maintenance section of this manual and establish
a regular schedule of care. If your board is behaving irregularly, please
contact hoytskate@hoytskate.com so we can
troubleshoot the problem together.
READ BEFORE YOU RIDE
ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET when riding the board. Other protective gear like wrist
guards, gloves, elbow and knee pads are also strongly recommended.
THE BOARD MAY LOSE POWER OR BRAKES due to low batteries or regenerative
braking overcharge. Ride at speeds manageable without power or brakes.
DO NOT ride downhill on a full charge.
It is strongly recommended all riders take their first rides in LEARNING MODE
(Mode 1) and slowly elevate modes to learn the feel and power of the board.
HILLS AND HIGH SPEED can be very dangerous. Always assume you may need to foot
brake your way out of a sticky situation and never ride faster than you can
stop. Ride within your capabilities.
NEVER ride the board while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.
PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO HIGH HEAT may damage the electronics. Avoid leaving your
board in a hot car or trunk.
LEARN AND OBEY local traffic laws. SHARE the road. Be courteous of cyclists,
pedestrians and other modes of transport.

CHARGER
Hoyt St chargers are UL certified and built with the highest level of quality and safety. To charge your board, plug in the charger to the port located on the rear left side of the enclosure. Lift open the charging hatch and insert the charger. Do not force fit. A red LED will light up while charging and turn green when fully charged. The process requires ~2½-4½ hours depending on your Pgroups.
TIP 1: The batteries will not be damaged in any way by operating the
board after a partial charging session.
TIP 2: The charger is designed to safely charge individual packs as well
as two or three packs at a time.
TIP 3: Never charge your board unattended.
CAUTION: The majority of lithium ion battery accidents occur during the
charging process. Only use Hoyt St supplied charger. Using a different charger
may damage the batteries, shorten their life cycles, or even cause fires.

MAINTENANCE GUIDE
TIRES, WHEELS AND PULLEYS:
- Rotate your front and rear tires when tread is worn down
- Replace tires when worn down to the cords.
- When removing wheels, keep track of the spacers on the axle and replace in the same position/order.
- Urethane pulleys are press fit and bolted on. Once bolts are removed, some prying and force is required to remove the pulley.
- Be sure to use blue Loctite on the screws when reinstalling pulleys..
Hoyt St will transfer your wheel pulleys to new wheels free of charge when new
wheels purchased from Hoytskate.com.
IMPORTANT: For optimal safety and range, always use wheel
spacers and washers against both the trucks and bolts in the wheel assembly.
Tip: Watch instructional videos at the Hoytskate Youtube channel.
Belt Tension : Proper tension is a key performance factor.
Your board comes preassembled with optimal tension.
- Excessive belt tension leads to increased rolling resistance, lower range and possible belt fail ure.
- Low tension leads to pulley slippage during acceleration and braking. A low pitched vibrating noise will accompany the slipping action. After springs tension the mount, tighten the grub screw so the belts stay tight.
Belt Tens i on Adjustment:
- Important: Loosen but do not remove the bolts and nuts.
- Loosen the two hex bolts located on motor mount alongside the tension springs.
- Once the hex is loosened, the motor mount springs will auto-set the belt tension.
- If necessary, manually adjust the belt and motor mount for proper alignment and re-tighten the bolts.
Belt maintenance: Hoyt St belts have been built to last hundreds of miles without replacement.
- Inspect belts and pulleys periodically by manually rotating the wheels. Remove any sharp objects and debris that may have lodged in the belt or pulley teeth.
- Belt replacement:
• Unscrew wheel nut, carefully setting aside washers.
• Pull the wheel and pulley assembly off the belt by gently rotating the wheel while nudging the belt towards the truck.
• Remove the motor pulley cover, then the old belt and place the new belt around the motor gear.
• Replace the motor pulley cover.
• Ensure the motor gear is fully pressed against motor.
• Install first wheel washer. Align the bearing spacer with the hole and install the wheel and pulley onto the axle and over the belt. Add the second washer.
Wheel bearings: Electric skateboards can easily travel hundreds of miles
at high speeds over several sessions; it is imperative that the bearings be
maintained for rider safety. Periodically check for noise. A grinding or
squeaking noise may indicate compromised bearings. Bearings should either be
replaced or cleaned every three hundred miles. No skateboard bearings are
fully protected from the debris that rainwater and mud carries. Avoid riding
in the rain or be prepared to replace/clean your bearings more frequently.
Every several rides inspect all screws, nuts and bolts, and tighten as
necessary. Ensure belts are under proper tension..
