SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Riding an electric product does present potential risks and caution is required. Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without the fault of the manufacturer. Like any electric product, the Ground Force Elite has inherent hazards associated with its use (for example, falling off or riding it into a hazardous situation). Like any electric product, the Ground Force Elite can and is intended to move and it is therefore, of course, possible to lose control or otherwise get into dangerous situations. Both children and adults responsible for supervising them must recognize that if such things occur, a rider 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 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 ensure that young riders can 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 product to ensure their safety.

This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the consequences of failing to maintain, inspect, or properly use your electric product. Because any incident can result in serious injury or even death, we do not repeat the warning of possible serious injury or death each time such a possibility is mentioned.

WARNING:

PARENTAL AND ADULT RESPONSIBILITY AND SUPERVISION IS NECESSARY:
Because products, like the Ground Force Elite, can and do present potential hazards associated with their use, it is well recognized THE NEED to exercise OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN SELECTING ELECTRIC PRODUCTS APPROPRIATE TO THE AGE OF A CHILD, OR PARENTAL SUPERVISION IN SITUATIONS IN WHICH CHILDREN OF VARIOUS AGES MAY HAVE ACCESS TO THE SAME ELECTRIC PRODUCTS, IS IMPORTANT. Not every product is appropriate for every age or size of child, and different age recommendations are found within this category of product which are intended to reflect the nature of the hazards and the expected mental or physical ability, or both, of a child to cope with the hazards.

The recommended rider age of thirteen (13) years or older for the Ground Force Elite is only an estimate and can be affected by the rider’s size, weight, or skills. Any rider unable to fit comfortably on the product 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. Razor emphasizes that adults are strongly advised not to disregard Razor’s recommendations or permit younger children to ride the Ground Force Elite.

Keep this product away from small children and remember that it is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and competent while operating the product. Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity or mental capabilities to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions and to be able to understand the hazards inherent in product use, should not use or be permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities. Persons with heart conditions, head, back or neck ailments (or prior surgeries to these areas of the body), or pregnant women, should be cautioned not to operate such products.

DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 200 lb (91 kg). Rider weight does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the Ground Force Elite.

CHECK AND MAINTAIN PRODUCT CONDITIONS
Before use, check to confirm that any guards or other covers and guards are in place and in serviceable condition. Check that the brake
is functioning properly and that tires do not have excess wear. Always inspect the product before riding and regularly maintain it. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Check the brake for proper function. When you press on the foot brake pedal, the brake should provide positive braking action. The product should be maintained and repaired by the manufacturer’s specifications, using only the manufacturer’s authorized replacement parts, and should not be modified from the manufacturer’s original design and configuration.

ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations that may affect the locations where the Ground Force Elite may be used. Keep safely away from cars and motor vehicle traffic at all times. Only use where allowed and with caution.

• Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children, or animals who may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.
• The Ground Force Elite is meant to be used on private property and on closed courses and not on public streets or sidewalks. Do not ride your electric product in any areas where pedestrian or vehicle traffic is present.
• Do not activate the throttle unless you are on the product and in a safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding.
• The normal powered top speed of this product will be approximately 14 mph (22.5 km/h), which can be affected by conditions, such as rider weight, inclines, and battery charge level.
• Do not attempt or do stunts or tricks on your electric Ground Force Elite. The Ground Force Elite is not made to withstand abuse from misuse, such as jumping, curb grinding, or any other type of stunts. Racing, stunt riding, or other maneuvers also enhance the risk of loss of control or may cause uncontrolled rider actions or reactions.
• This product was manufactured for performance and durability but is not impervious to damage. Jumping or other aggressive riding can overstress and damage any product, including the Ground Force Elite, and the rider assumes all risks associated with high-stress activity.
• Be careful and know your limitations. The risk of injury increases as the degree of riding difficulty increases. The rider assumes all risks associated with aggressive riding activities.
• Maintain a hold on the steering wheel at all times.
• Never carry passengers or allow more than one person at a time to ride the electric product.
• Never use nearby steps or swimming pools.
• Do not allow hands, feet, hair, body parts, clothing, or similar articles to come in contact with moving parts or wheels while the motor is running.
• Do not touch the brake or electric motor on your electric product when in use as they can become very hot.
• Never use headphones, a cell phone, or text when riding.
• Never hitch a ride with a vehicle.
• Do not ride the Ground Force Elite in wet or icy weather and never immerse the electric product in water, as the electrical and drive components could get damaged by water or possibly create other unsafe conditions.
• The electric Ground Force Elite is intended for use on flat, dry surfaces, such as pavement or level ground, without loose debris, such as sand, leaves, rocks, or gravel. Wet, slick, bumpy, uneven, or rough surfaces may impair traction, increase risks, and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride the electric product in mud, ice, puddles, or water. Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates, and sudden surface changes. Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated with downhill rides.
• Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring by the use of an electric product indoors.
• Do not ride at night or when visibility is limited.

PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always wear proper protective equipment such as an approved safety helmet (with a chin strap securely buckled). A helmet may be legally required by local law or regulation in your area. Elbow pads and kneepads, a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and gloves are recommended. Always wear athletic shoes (lace-up shoes with rubber soles) and keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the wheels, motor, and drive system. Never ride barefoot or in sandals.

USING THE CHARGER
The charger supplied with the electric product should be regularly examined for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure, and other parts. In the event of such damage, the product must not be charged until the charger has been repaired or replaced.

• Use only with the recommended charger.
• Use caution when charging.
• The charger is not a toy. The charger should be operated by an adult.
• Do not operate chargers near flammable materials.
• Unplug the charger and disconnect from the product when not in use.
• Do not exceed charging time.
