Maintenance
Tires – Keep tire pressure fully inflated psi ____
- for proper ride and handling
- for maximum range
- to avoid pinched tube which can cause a flat tire
- tires may lose 3-5 lbs pressure each month – check regularly.
Chain – On models with a chain – lubricate, wipe off excess
Battery
- Sealed gel lead acid batteries – have no memory – can take many discharges but need to be kept fully charged when not in use.
Caution: These are not ni-cad (nickel cadium) batteries which need to be run down completely before charging, to avoid memory conditioning.
- Do not run the battery all the way down – when there is a noticeable change in acceleration, charge batteries.
- Charge battery fully after riding – even if the scooter is ridden for only a short period of time.
- Charger light indicates when battery is fully charged.
- Unplug after charging – do not leave charger plugged into the scooter more than 12-24 hours.
- Important: Fully charge the batteries before storing scooter.
- Turn off scooter when not in use or when charging.
- Do not sit or stand on the scooter with the kickstand down – the kickstand could bend or brake off.
Riding Conditions
Do not ride in the rain, in water, through sprinkler systems, puddles, in wet grass, or jump off ramps or curbs.
Do not stall the motor, such as applying the throttle and brake at the same time.
