use a soft damp cloth.
•
Never
use a hose to wash your scooter.

Wheels and Tires
The wheels of your scooter have split rims. This allows any punctures to be repaired easily.
To change the wheels remove the center 13 mm bolt and slide the wheel off its axles. Take care
not to lose the drive key on the rear wheels. When changing a tire you must deflate the tire first.
Remove the four bolts to split the rim if required. Ensure that when refitting the wheel the
retaining bolt is fitted with a locking washer (with drive key for the rear wheel). Tire pressure
is recommended to be kept at 30 psi on the rear tires and 25 psi on the front. Note when refitting
the tube a small amount of air in the tube will prevent the tube from pinching when reassembling
the split rim.
Caution: On the tire it states maximum tire pressure is 50psi. This is a maximum tire
pressure and the tires should never be inflated to this pressure.
Attention: Tires should be maintained at the correct pressure noted above to ensure
even wear and ride comfort.
