Care Instructions
A . Wheel bearings: Avoid going through water, oil or sand as this can damage to the wheel bearings. To look after the wheel bearings, systematically check that the wheels turn properly by turning the scooter upside-down and using your hand to spin the wheels. If the wheels do not spin they must then be removed to check their condition. First, unscrew the wheel axle, remove the axle and detach the wheel, then carefully push the two-wheel bearings out of their housing. If they are chipped or dented, they should be replaced. If there is no visible damage, they must then be oiled. To do this, remove all traces of grease, mud or dust with a kitchen towel or cloth, and re-oil them with a grease spray or by leaving them to soak overnight in oil [turn them several times in the oil first]. Reassemble the wheel bearings and axles, followed by the wheel, onto the scooter. Repeat process for the other wheel.
B. Wheels: The wheels wear down with time and can be pierced if overly used on rough surfaces. The back wheel on which the brake is applied is particularly affected after several hours of braking. In the interest of safety, they should be checked regularly and changed if necessary.
C. Modifications: The original scooter must by no means be modified except for the maintenance-related changes mentioned in these instructions.
D. Nuts and axles: These should be checked regularly. They can become loose after a while in which case they should be tightened. They can become worn and not tighten properly, in which case they should be replaced.
