2. Using a suitable body stand, lift the side of the vehicle you
wish to service off the ground. Place the stand under
the metal chassis. Care must be taken when lifting heavy
loads, you may need a friend to help you. Care should

pressure from a bearing puller onto the wheel hub to
release them from the axles. Look for spacing washers and
take care not to mislay the drive key which fits between the
wheel hub and the axle shaft.
5. First deflate the air from the wheel assembly by removing

Safety Note: For your own safety, we recommend that you
check the function of your Scooter brakes prior to a journey.
If the motor brake is functioning correctly and
the drive is engaged you will not be able to push your
machine when it is switched off. Or switched on with the
speed control lever in the 'zero speed', central position.
If your machine can be pushed as described above, the motor
brake could be faulty, or the freewheel system has
been disengaged. Please do not use, contact your local
distributor.
Note: Check the Freewheeling Instructions on page 12 of this
manual.

change in the normal slowing/braking condition, and your
Scooter does not slow down quickly, please do not use your
machine, contact your
distributor.
The bearings which control the movement of the steering
handle bar may need to be adjusted if up and down
movement is noticed in your steering handle bars, and those
are accessed at the base of your handle bars.
The bearings are adjusted by first releasing the locking nut
anti-clockwise one full turn with a suitable spanner (Fig35).
Turn the upper bearing adjustment nut clockwise, one flat at
a time until all of the up and down movement in the handle
bars is removed. Retighten the lock nut clockwise into
position with a second spanner. Do not over tighten the
bearing adjustment nut, as this will damage the bearing tracks.
The handle bar bearings are NOT 'Sealed for life' and may
require lubrication with a general purpose bearing grease on
an annual basis.
Check the condition of your tyres regularly. Look for signs of
wear, cuts and foreign objects lodged in the tread. Also,
maintain the tyre pressures at all times; failure to comply with
this can lead to poor performance of your machine and could
make your machine unsafe and/or unstable.
Your is designed with 'split' wheel rims.
Do not remove wheel bolts with the wheel inflated. Maintain
pneumatic tyres at 30 p.s.i. (210 kpa). Failure to observe
this warning may result in personal injury. Note low or
unequal tyre pressures can make your Scooter become
unstable and reduce battery / motor performance.
