Tiller Lock Knob

The tiller lock knob allows the tiller to be locked in the straight ahead position. Locking the tiller is helpful when
transporting the Travel Scooter because it will stabilise the front wheel, keeping the Travel Scooter from moving
from side to side.

WARNING! Before getting onto your Travel Scooter, always check that the tiller lock knob

is in the unlocked position. See figure 7A. Attempting to ride your Travel Scooter with the

tiller lock knob in the locked position can result in personal injury.

From the unlocked position (see figure 6), lock the front wheel by pushing the tiller lock knob in and turning it
clockwise 90°. See figure 6A.

To adjust the height of the seat:
1. Remove the seat by lifting it straight up and off of the

Travel Scooter.

2. Use the attached ring to pull and remove the detent pin

from the lower seat post. See figure 7.

3. Raise or lower the upper seat post to the desired

seat height.

4. While holding the upper seat post at that height, align the

adjustment holes of the upper and lower seat posts.

5. Fully insert the detent pin.
6. Reinstall the seat.
