4.2 Adjusting Handlebar Height

2. Open the quick-release clamp.
3. Adjust the handlebar to one of the available height settings. Ensure the internal pin locks into a height adjustment hole.
4. Close the quick-release clamp firmly to secure the handlebar at the chosen height.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Unfolding the Scooter

1. Place the folded scooter on a flat surface.
2. Locate the folding mechanism button/lever near the base of the T-bar.
3. Press the button/activate the lever and gently pull the T-bar upwards until the deck locks into its riding position. You should hear a click.
4. Ensure the folding mechanism is fully engaged and locked before riding.

5.2 Riding the Scooter

1. Place one foot firmly on the deck of the scooter.
2. Use your other foot to push off the ground, generating momentum.
3. To steer, lean your body in the desired direction. The scooter's lean-to-steer mechanism will guide the front wheels.
4. For beginners, activate the patented steering lock button located on the front of the scooter. This locks the front wheels in a straight position, providing added stability and making it easier to learn balance. Once comfortable, release the button to enable lean-to-steer functionality.

• To slow down or stop, gently press your foot down on the brake pedal located above the rear wheel.

• Cleaning: Wipe the scooter with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Do not use high-pressure water jets.
• Wheels: Regularly check the wheels for wear and tear. Ensure they spin freely and are securely attached. Replace worn wheels as necessary.
• Bearings: The wheel bearings are sealed and generally maintenance-free. If they become noisy or stiff, they may need replacement.
