PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
Brake
Check the brake for proper function. When you squeeze the brake
lever, the brake should provide positive braking action. Make sure
that the brake is not rubbing when the brake lever is released.
Tire
Periodically inspect the tire for excess wear and replace as
needed. Regularly check the tire pressure and inflate as needed.
Frame, Fork and Handlebars
Check for cracks or broken connections. Although broken frames
are rare, it is possible for an aggressive rider to run into a curb
or object and wreck, bend or break a frame. Get in the habit of
inspecting your scooter on a regular basis.
Hardware/Loose Parts
Before every ride, check all parts, such as nuts, bolts, cables,
fasteners, etc., to ensure they are secure and assembled correctly.
There should not be any unusual rattles or sounds from loose
parts or broken components. If the unit is damaged, do not ride.
Reference “Safety Warnings” on page 1 of this manual.

helmet. Elbow pads and kneepads 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 BAREFOOTED OR IN SANDALS.
Laws and Regulations
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations.
Insurance
Do not assume that your existing insurance policies necessarily
provide coverage for scooter use. Check with your insurance
company for information regarding insurance.
