TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
Care / Maintenance: regular maintenance is a safety commitment:
Wheel bearings: avoid going through water, oil, or sand as this can damage wheel bearings. To look after the wheel bearings, systematically check that the wheels turn properly by turning the scooter upside-down and using your hand to spin the wheels. if the wheels do not spin, they must then be removed to check their condition.
First unscrew the wheel axle, remove the axle, and detach the wheel, then carefully push the two-wheel bearings out of their housing:
- if they are chipped or dented, new ones should be bought
- if there is no visible damage, they must then be oiled.
To do this, remove all traces of grease, mud or dust with a kitchen towel or cloth, and re-oil them with:
- a grease spray or
- by leaving them to soak overnight in oil [turn them several times in the oil first].
Then reassemble the wheel bearings and axles, followed by the wheel, onto the scooter. proceed in the same manner for the other wheel.
Wheels: the wheels wear down with time and can be pierced if overly used on rough surfaces. The back wheel on which the brake is applied is particularly affected after several hours of braking. In the interests of safety, they should be checked regularly and changed if necessary.
Modifications: the original product must by no means be modified except for the maintenance-related changes mentioned in these instructions.
Nuts, axles and other self-locking fixings: these should also be checked regularly. They can become loose after a while in which case they should be tightened. They can become worn and not tighten properly, in which case they should be replaced.
