Separating the Scooter

(located on floor pan between the two battery recesses) counterclockwise until
it is sufficiently loose. Grasp the tiller with one hand and the loosened

loaded) and slide the front section of the scooter forward.
The rear section should automatically fall back on to its anti-tips
