Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of this PUKY vehicle. You have acquired a quality
product, which is certain to bring you great joy.
Please read these instructions carefully before putting the vehicle into operation and
keep them in a safe place for further use! If you do not follow these instructions, the
safety of your child may be impaired. Should you have any questions, please contact
your dealer or contact us via our website: www.puky.de
Warning R 1
Attention. Protective equipment required. Not for use in road traffic. Max. 20 kg.
Warning R 03/R 03 L
Attention. Protective equipment required. Not for use in road traffic. Max. 50 kg.
Danger warnings
The installation must be carried out very carefully by an adult so that accidents or
injuries cannot occur later. Take your time to do this. Some assembly work requires
manual skill and practice in handling hand tools (e.g. spanners). If you are not sure,
please contact your dealer or a workshop. This toy vehicle has potentially sharp edg-
es. Wear personal protective equipment (helmet, gloves, knee pads and elbow pads,
sturdy footwear)! The scooter is only suitable for one person. Only use the scooter in
appropriate areas and outside public traffic zones. Only use the vehicle on smooth,
clean and dry surfaces, preferably without other traffic. This vehicle is not suitable
for off-road use. In particular, jumps and driving over kerbs are not permitted and will
result in damage to the scooter. Do not use the vehicle in darkness or poor visibility.
Avoid sloping terrain. This vehicle does not correspond to the Road Traffic Act and
may not be used in road traffic. Permissible total load: 20 kg (R 1), 50 kg (R 03/R0
3 L), 100 kg (R 07 L/JOKER).
Usage
The scooter is operated by repeatedly kicking off with a foot.
R 1: The vehicle does not have any brakes.
R 03/ R 03 L: To brake, push down on the rear-wheel kick foot brake.
R 07L: To brake, use the brake lever on the handlebars. This controls the V brake
on the rear wheel.
JOKER: Operate the right brake lever (controls the V-brake on the rear wheel) or the
left brake lever (controls the V-brake on the front wheel) for braking.
The braking equipment may become hot when used constantly. The brake should
not be touched after the braking procedure - risk of burning! Observe the reduced
braking effect of the front brake (if fitted) in rain and wet conditions. Avoid sudden,
strong braking with the front wheel brake (especially the V-brake has a very high
braking power), as this can suddenly change the driving behaviour of the vehicle
and lead to a fall.
Legal liability
The legal liability for material defects applies. Damages caused by inappropriate
use, the effects of force, insufficient maintenance or due to normal wear and tear
are excluded from the liability of material defects.
Parents‘ responsibility
Risks during play are, for the most part, excluded when used in accordance with the
intended purpose. However, please take into consideration that unforeseen situa-
tions and hazards may occur as a result of the natural need for movement and the
temperament of young children and adolescents for which the manufacturer cannot
be held liable. Instruct children and young people to use the vehicle properly in order
to avoid falls or collisions.
Type label
The type label is located underneath the frame. Make a note of the information on
the nameplate at the end of this manual to have it at hand for questions or ordering
spare parts.
Maintenance and care
Examine the vehicle at regular intervals for any wear, and to check that the screws
are still properly tightened. Self-tightening nuts are hard to loosen and must be re-
placed after complete disassembly!
In order to maintain the high, design-specified safety levels, all worn or defective
parts are to be immediately replaced by original PUKY spare parts. For safety rea-
sons, the vehicle should not be used until it has been fully repaired. Bent or deformed
parts should not be repaired but instead should be replaced.
Wear-and-tear-parts: wheels, inner/outer cable, brake block, handlebar grip.
The vehicle must not be cleaned with a high pressure cleaner. Clean the vehicle
using a mild soapy solution and carefully wipe dry using a soft cloth. Keep the ve-
hicle away from corrosion-promoting materials (road salt, sea water, fertiliser). The
vehicle must not be stored in damp conditions.
Check braking effect (if applicable). Braking surfaces should be free from grease
and in pre-scribed position. When replacing rim brake pads, you should ensure that
they match the rim (aluminium), otherwise braking effect cannot be guaranteed.
Ensure air pressure in tyres is correct (recommended air pressure will be found on
the lateral faces of the tyre).
Similar to car tyres, considering vulcanised India rubber there is a risk that stains
may form in areas where tyres contact the floor covering. Please protect contact
face between floor and tyre.
Valve caps (if available) need to be firmly tightened and kept away from childrens’
reach (danger of swallow up).
Replacing wheels
Replacement wheels can be obtained from your specialist dealer or by contacting us
via the Internet using www.puky.de
Unpacking and scope of delivery
Do not use any sharp objects when opening the packaging and removing protective
material. By doing so, you may damage the paint or parts of the vehicle.
Examine the package for completeness and proper condition. If anything is missing,
please contact your dealer before you start to assemble the vehicle.
Small parts which are required during assembly (e.g. screws and washers) must be
kept out of the reach of small children. There is a danger of suffocation as a result
of swallowing the parts. Also keep all packaging material out of reach of children.
In some cases, it is necessary to tighten screws with a prescribed torque. This
torque value is stated in Newtons (e.g. 2 Nm). If the torque with which a screw is
tightened is too low, the connection may still be too loose and therefore unsafe. If the
torque is too high, screws and other parts may be damaged or destroyed.
