RIDING YOUR SKATEBOARD

Always wear protective equipment including a helmet, and knee, elbow, and wrist pads.
Do not skateboard in dangerous or crowded areas, such as on roads or pavements, to avoid serious accidents involving the skateboarder and/or other people.
Avoid skateboarding on wet or uneven surfaces. Ride on flat, clean, and dry surfaces, away from other road users and pedestrians.
Make sure your path ahead is clear of any obstacles before you start.
Running or jumping onto a skateboard can be dangerous.
Be careful when leaming to ride. Take your time learning new tricks. Practice stepping off the skateboard when losing your balance, rather than waiting to fall.
Stop or slow down the skateboard by taking your back foot off and dragging it on the ground. This may take some practice.
Start by riding down gentle slopes and only stay at a speed you are comfortable with, so you can run off the board without falling.
It is better to learn the basics with a friend or parent present, as most accidents occur in the first few months or learning.
Learn to roll when falling to prevent serious injury- start practicing this without a skateboard.
When jumping off, always check where your skateboard will roll. It may injure someone else.
Children under 8 years old should be supervised at all times.
Warning, skateboarding can be a dangerous sport.
Obey all local traffic and scooter riding laws and regulations.

The skateboard steering mechanism can be adjusted by releasing or tightening the kingpin nut (diagram 1) in the center of each axle. When these are loose., the skateboard can be turned left or right more easily by simply pressing your weight on either edge of the skateboard. Always ensure that the nylon locking section of the kingpin is fully engaged with the bolt.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING OF YOUR SKATEBOARD

Do not modify your skateboard in a way that could impair safety and make sure all screws and nuts are securely tightened before every use. The self-locking fixtures may lose their effectiveness.
Always check the wheels and kingpin nut (diagram 1) and make sure they are firmly tightened.
Remove any sharp edges from the wooden deck and regularly check for splinters and cracks. Replace the deck when required.
Clean the bearings regularly by simply cleaning the bearing face of dirt and debris with a soft cloth. Ensure the bearings are lightly lubricated. They may become worn with use.
Replace the wheels and buffers when they have deteriorated. If replacing parts, use like-for-like components and when needed, ensure that a competent adult carries out the work.
Do not expose the skateboard to high temperatures.
