INSTRUCTION
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
Dear customer,
We would like to pass onto you our thanks for choosing this product. It is our
duty to inform you that this scooter in its basic version is intended for mild
terrain and non-car traffic roads. It is possible that you will need to add
more safety features, such as reflectors, required under the law of the
country in which the scooter will be used. Also it is vital to use safety
features for the rider him/herself (see safety features section).
A very important aspect for the safe use of this product is the proper
adjustment of the scooter (wheel bearings, break inspection, bolt tightening,
and proper tire inflation). That is why we highly recommend having the scooter
assembled and regularly inspected by a professional bicycle service, simply
for the well-informed skilled technicians who can assist you. By securing
yourself a properly set-up scooter with regular service you will be able to
enjoy this product for a long time to come.
Do not forget that our line of scooters is wide. You can choose from many
different sizes and styles for different age groups and uses .
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
-
Control individual parts in the box:
-
(1 piece) the mainframe of scooter including front fork,
-
( 2 pieces) brake system (depending on the type of scooter)
-
(2 pieces) inflatable wheels (according to the model: 2x 12″)
-
(1 piece) handlebars including the handlebars rod. Entrust a professional bicycle service with the assembly.
-
Loosen the nuts on the two small wheel shafts. If necessary, tighten the bearing clearance so that the wheels can rotate freely (that is, they will not be tensioned and cannot rotate freely at the same time).
-
(picture 0). Make sure that the security eye provided with a small beak is positioned correctly,
(protruding part /break/ of security eye must be inserted in a small hole at the end of the fork
whereas the axis of the wheel must be exactly in the middle of the fork. -
For the handlebars: if the handlebar rod is pointing upward, rotate it down and evenly tighten
the four front piece screws (picture 8 ) -
Insert the handlebar rod into the handlebar tube (picture8 ). Adjust the height of the handlebars according to the rider’s needs. The maximum height is marked on the handlebar rod. Check that the axis of the handlebars is parallel to the axis of the front wheel, and properly tighten the screw (picture O ).
-
V-type brakes: they have been assembled, and it is usually effective that the right lever breaks the rear wheel, and the left lever brakes the front wheel. If the wheel cannot rotate freely and “loosen” on one side, it can be adjusted by tightening the tension bolt on the V-brake arm to make it loose (Picture fl ). Loosen the tightening screw on the V brake arm farther from the rim to allow the wheel to rotate freely. Make sure that the control brakes are working well before riding.
-
incase the kickstand has not yet been attached, screw it to the lower part of the frame so that it folds out to the left side in relation to the rider’s perspective.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR RIDING
-
a) During the start-up and during the whole time of riding, the rider has to have both hands on
the handlebars grips and minimally one foot on the deck of the scooter. -
b) Start to ride so that you put one foot on the deck (both hands on the grips- see point a) and
with a second foot take off in the direction of the ride. -
c) V-shaped braking procedure: Press the brake levers (1-2 pieces) on the handlebar, and you will get the necessary braking. During this period, the braking intensity depends on the pressure of the lever. When braking, it is best to use more rear brakes. Use the front brake ( if it is included) as a slack upper brake (a brake for ending braking or as an emergency brake)- during more intensive braking, accidents and injuries may occur.
-
d) Whentuming, you need to tit the ride
MAINTENANCE
We recommend entrusting a professional service with it. Control regularly,
eventually tighten or adjust: screw connections, tightening mechanisms,
lubricate sliding parts (wheels bearings, handlebars bearings, cables, brake
parts, etc.), when dirty, dean with a humid doth.
ATTENTION: the lubrication, the lubricant must not get onto the braking
friction surface of the rim and the brake lining, if this situation occurs, it
is necessary to remove the grease from all brake parts, eventually to dean
with technical gasoline. If during the riding it starts to”crack” in the
spokes, it is necessary to tighten all the wires of the wheels equally by 2
turns (we recommend to entrust with it a professional service), eventually to
grease, adjust or change the bearings and bearings parts. If the change of
wheels is necessary, use always wheels/tires of the same parameters according
to the original ones. Carry out the disassembly in a contrary way than the
assembly (see Operating instructions). Entrust the exchange or repair of a
tire and inner tube to a professional service. the scooter’s construction
contains self-locking nuts or other self-locking accessories, when unloosing
and tightening them frequently, they lose their efficiency. In this case, it
is necessary to substitute the respective parts.
