Operation (continued)
Shutting off the engine
Always shut off the engine by turning the ignition switch to OFF.
Stopping the vehicle
WARNING! WET, OIL, OR SANDY ROADS REDUCE
BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS. HARD BRAKING ON THESE
SURFACES COULD LEAD TO LOSS OF CONTROL AND A
SERIOUS ACCIDENT. ALWAYS REDUCE SPEED AS
GRADUALLY AS POSSIBLE.
When braking, always engage the rear brake first to retain maximum control
of the scooter. Most of your stopping power comes from the front wheel.
Parking
Always leave the ignition key assembly in the lock position when parking the
vehicle to help prevent theft. Park on smooth hard surfaces, use the center
stand whenever possible.
Breaking in
● Following this break-in procedure ensures that your scooter is
functioning properly and maximizes engine life.
● Never drive this vehicle over 25mph during the first 250 miles of
operation. Excessive speed could result in engine failure.
● Always use fresh 89 octane gasoline. Avoid gasoline that contains
alcohol, which can damage rubber gaskets and engine seals.
● Check and adjust the brakes, throttle cable, tire pressure, and
fasteners weekly before riding. This is in addition to the pre-ride
inspection.
● Schedule regular maintenance with your authorized Baja
Inc. service center.
● Never add oil to the gasoline; your scooter has a 4-stroke engine
with an internal lubricating system.
