Operating Instructions
Riding the Scooter
- Place one foot firmly on the deck of the scooter.
- Use your other foot to push off the ground, gaining momentum.
- Once moving, place both feet on the deck, one behind the other, or side-by-side if comfortable.
- Steer by leaning your body and gently turning the handlebars.
Braking
The Globber One K 125 is equipped with an aluminum rear brake.
- To slow down or stop, gently press your foot down on the rear fender brake located above the back wheel.
- Apply gradual pressure to avoid sudden stops, which can lead to loss of balance.
Folding for Transport and Storage
To fold the scooter for easy transport or storage:
- Ensure the scooter is stationary and on a flat surface.
- Locate the folding mechanism (the same one used for unfolding).
- Activate the release mechanism and gently push the T-bar downwards until the scooter folds into its compact position. Ensure it locks securely in the folded state.
- The handlebars can also be folded down for an even more compact form. Loosen the clamp on the handlebars, fold them inwards, and re-tighten the clamp.

Trolley Mode
The Globber One K 125 is designed with a trolley mode for effortless transportation when not riding.
- Once folded, the scooter can be easily pulled along like a trolley, utilizing its wheels. This feature is particularly useful for navigating crowded areas or public transport.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and safe operation of your Globber One K 125 scooter.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the scooter with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Do not hose down the scooter.
- Wheel and Bearing Inspection: Regularly check the wheels for wear and tear. Ensure they spin freely. If bearings feel rough or noisy, they may need cleaning or replacement.
- Brake Check: Verify that the rear brake is functioning effectively. Ensure the brake pad is not excessively worn.
- Tighten Bolts and Clamps: Periodically check all bolts, screws, and quick-release clamps (especially on the T-bar and folding mechanism) and tighten them if necessary using the provided wrench. Loose components can affect performance and safety.
- Storage: Store the scooter in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prevent material degradation.
Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their potential solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Scooter not unfolding/folding smoothly. | Mechanism is stiff or dirty. | Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the folding mechanism. Ensure no debris is obstructing the movement. |
| Brake not effective. | Brake pad worn, or mechanism loose. | Check the wear of the rear brake pad. If worn, it may need replacement. Ensure the brake mechanism is clean and free of debris. |
| Wheels not spinning freely or making noise. | Dirty or damaged bearings. | Clean the wheels and bearings. If noise persists or wheels don't spin well, bearings may need replacement. |
| Handlebar slips down during use. | Quick-release clamp is not tight enough. | Fully open the quick-release clamp, ensure the T-bar is at the desired height with the pin engaged, then close the clamp firmly. Adjust the tension screw on the clamp if necessary. |
