Motovox MVS10, Owner'S Manual

This section will cover basic braking technique for your scooter. To slow 

or stop, squeeze the brake lever firmly and smoothly. Gradually increase your 

braking pressure as you feel it is needed. Keep in mind that you are in an 

upright position when you are riding and jamming on the brakes suddenly 

will tend to pitch you forward, which is very dangerous. When you come to a 

full stop, put one foot on the ground to avoid tipping over.
Always think ahead and allow yourself enough room to stop safely. Just be 

careful to apply braking power carefully to avoid sending the scooter into a 

skid which will cause you to lose control. Also, use the rear brake more 

heavily as locking up the front tire with hard braking is dangerous as well.
If you apply the brakes too quickly and start to skid, release the brake to 

regain control and then apply braking power carefully.
When riding on wet, or loose surface conditions your braking power can be 

reduced greatly and it will be much more likely to put the scooter into a skid 

and lose control. If the surface is wet or loose, you must reduce your speed 

and allow more room to stop safely. 
Avoid jamming on the brake suddenly or accelerating too quickly as either 

of these actions can cause you to lose control of the scooter.

With the scooter stopped, turn it off with the kill button, flip down the 

kickstand and lean the scooter over on it to park. Always park your scooter 

on a flat surface to avoid tipping over. Then check over the scooter to make 

sure there are no fuel leaks, damaged parts or loose nuts and bolts.

Keeping your scooter in perfect operating condition is absolutely essential 

to your safety. It is also the best way to protect your investment, get maximum 

performance, avoid breakdowns and have more fun. To help keep your 

scooter well maintained, the maintenance schedule on the following page 

will provide you valuable information that will help you keep your it in good 

and safe operating condition and avoid injury.

The service intervals in this section are based on average riding conditions. 

More frequent service is needed if you subject your scooter to severe use, 

such as competition or riding in unusually wet or dusty conditions.

      Improper maintenance of this scooter or failing to correct a 

problem before you ride can cause a crash in which you could be seriously 

injured or killed. Always follow the inspection and maintenance routines 

recommended in this manual.

Remember, proper maintenance of your scooter is the responsibility of the 

owner and failure to do so can cause your warranty to be void.

Note to parents: As a parent it is up to you to make sure the scooter is properly 

maintained and in safe operating condition. For youngsters, learning how to 

take care of any motorized vehicle and perform basic maintenance can be an 

important part of their riding experience. However, if you allow a youngster to 

perform or assist in any maintenance task, such as filling the fuel tank, you  need 

to provide close supervision to make sure the task is performed safely. 

Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. 

This will help eliminate the following hazards:

1. Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.

 Be sure 

you have good ventilation whenever you have the engine running.

2. Burns from hot engine parts.

 Let the engine and exhaust cool 

before you touch them.

3. Injury from moving parts.

 Do not work on the engine while it is 

running unless instructed by this manual to do so.
Be sure you have all the tools needed and understand the procedure before 

starting. Always be careful around gasoline. Keep flames and sparks away.
