CLEANING YOUR SCOOTER
Wipe with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Do not use industrial cleaners or
solvents as they may damage the surfaces. Do not use the alcohol, alcohol-based or
ammonia-based cleaners as they may damage or dissolve the plastic components or
soften the decals or decal adhesive. Store the scooter in a dry, dust-free place.
WHEELS AND BEARINGS
Under normal circumstances and conditions, the wheels and the bearings are
maintenance free. Nonetheless, it is the responsibility of the owner or guardian to
periodically inspect the wheels for wear and tear, the axle for proper tightness and
bearings for side-to-side play and loose parts. When a wheel or wheel bearing develops
play, this is an indication of excess wear and replacement is necessary. Replace
immediately with only JDBug wheels. Worn wheels/bearings are considered normal
wear-and-tear and are not covered by the JDBug Warranty. Wheels other than JDBug
wheels may not be compatible with your JDBug scooter. The use of anything other than
JDBug replacement parts may affect your safety and will void your warranty.
SAFETY REMINDERS
Loose Parts
Check and secure all fasteners before every ride. Make sure the steering bolts and foot
steppers are tight. There should not be any unusual rattles or sounds from loose parts
or broken components. If you are not sure, ask an experienced mechanic to check.
Brake
Check the brake for proper function. When you squeeze the lever, the brake should
provide positive braking action.
Frame, Fork and Handlebars
Check and secure all fasteners before every ride. Make sure the steering bolts and foot
steppers are tight. There should not be any unusual rattles or sounds from loose parts
or broken components. If you are not sure, ask an experienced mechanic to check.
Safety Gear
Always wear proper protective equipment such as an approved safety helmet, elbow
pads and kneepads. Always wear shoes (lace-up shoes with rubber soles), never ride
barefooted or in sandals, and keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the wheels.
