Assembling Your Falcon-1

Remove all Falcon-1 contents from the box. Ensure all parts from the “PARTS LIST” are accounted for.

Step 1: Attach Handlebar Mounts

Locate 2 M8 long screws, 2 large metal washers, and 4 rubber washers. Slide 1 large metal washer and 1 rubber washer onto 1 M8 long screw. Insert the screw into the side of a handlebar mount. Attach another rubber washer to the end of the screw. Align the hole on the side of the seat frame with the screw and insert it. Use the hex key to tighten the screw clockwise. Repeat for the other screw and handlebar mount.

Visual aid shows tools (hex key, screws, washers) and the assembly process.

Step 2: Attach Front Frame

Insert the front frame into the seat frame. Adjust the front frame to the desired length. Secure it by inserting the twist knob and twisting it clockwise to tighten. Ensure the front frame does not move.

Visual aid shows the front frame being inserted and secured with a twist knob.

Step 3: Attach Fog Blaster

Attach the fog blaster to the fog blaster mount using the 4 black short screws and the screwdriver (part of the hex key tool). Ensure the 2 larger holes of the fog blaster mount face forward.

Visual aid shows tools (screwdriver, screws) and the fog blaster being attached to its mount.

Step 4: Align and Insert Components

Insert the 4 small metal washers into the seat holes. Align the hole of the flag tube with one of the rear seat frame holes. Align the larger holes of the fog blaster mount with the hole of the flag tube and the rear holes of the seat frame.

Visual aid shows alignment of flag tube, fog blaster mount, and seat frame with small metal washers.

Step 5: Secure Assembly

Align the holes of the seat with the holes of the fog blaster mount, flag tube, and seat frame. Insert the 4 M8 short screws. Attach the lug nuts to the bottom of each screw. Use the wrench to hold the lug nuts in place while using the hex key to turn the screws clockwise. Ensure all screws are fully tightened.

Visual aid shows tools (wrench, hex key, screws, nuts) and the final securing of components.

Step 6: Assemble and Attach Flag

Assemble the flag by inserting one of the included flag rods into the opening in the flag fabric. Combine the remaining rods by attaching them at the coupling points. Insert the assembled flag set into the flag tube. Your Falcon-1 is now assembled.

Visual aid shows the assembled Falcon-1 with the flag attached.

Attaching the Falcon-1 to Your Hoverboard

Carefully follow these instructions to attach the Falcon-1 to your hoverboard. Ensure the Falcon-1 is fully assembled before proceeding.

Step 1: Position Handlebar Mounts

Place the handlebar mounts onto the footpad sensors of your hoverboard. Ensure the mounts are centered on the footpad sensors as much as possible.

Visual aid shows the Falcon-1 being placed onto a hoverboard, with text "SPACE EVENLY".

Step 2: Secure with Straps

Secure your Falcon-1 using 2 of the included hook and loop straps. With the fastener side facing away from your hoverboard, thread the straps through the outside hole of each handlebar mount.

Step 3: Fasten Straps

Wrap both straps underneath the hoverboard and pull them through to the other side. The rubber protective straps should be centered underneath the hoverboard, with side B facing the ground. Insert the straps into the rear hole of each handlebar mount. Fasten the front and rear sides of the straps, ensuring they are tightly secured.

Visual aids show rubber protectors, hook & loop strap assembly, and the final fastening of straps.

Before Riding

Falcon-1 Operation

It is important to fully understand all functions of your Falcon-1. Incorrect use may lead to loss of control. Practice using the Falcon-1 at slower speeds in a flat, open area before riding in other spaces.

Pre-Ride Falcon-1 Checklist

Ensure your Falcon-1 and hoverboard are in proper working order before each ride. If any part does not function correctly, contact Customer Support.

• Ensure the hoverboard battery is fully charged.
• Ensure all screws and nuts on the Falcon-1 are tightly secured.
• Check that the hoverboard tires are not worn.
• Check that all connections on the hoverboard are maintained.
• Make sure the hoverboard is calibrated and running properly.

Safety Precautions

The primary rule of safe riding is common sense. The Falcon-1 cannot protect you in a crash like a car. It can tip over or cause you to pitch forward if not ridden properly. Read these safety precautions carefully.

Local laws govern riding on public roads; check with local officials to ensure compliance.

Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations for riders who do not follow regulations.

• For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards. A helmet can protect from serious injury or death in an accident.
• Obey all local laws, stop signs, and pedestrian crosswalks.
• When riding with others, maintain a safe distance to avoid collisions.
• Ride defensively and expect the unexpected.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way.
• Do not ride too close to pedestrians; alert them if you intend to pass from behind.
• Slow down at intersections and look left and right before crossing.
• Obey all traffic signals.
• Always use proper hand signals for turning and stopping. Give signals 100 ft before stopping or turning, and always return both hands to the handlebars before stopping or turning.
• Watch for cars pulling into traffic and for sudden opening car doors.
• Avoid potholes, drainage grates, and other hazards.
• Be careful on soft road edges, gravel, sand, and uneven surfaces. Ride slowly and avoid quick turns on these surfaces.
• Never hitch onto other vehicles.
• Do not attempt stunts or tricks with the Falcon-1. Do not race in traffic.
• Do not weave in and out of traffic or swerve.
• Crashes can put extraordinary stress on Falcon-1 components, potentially causing premature fatigue and sudden failure, leading to loss of control or serious injury.

CAUTION: RIDING IN WET WEATHER

It is recommended not to ride your Falcon-1 in wet weather, as electronic components may be damaged by water. Stopping distances will be longer in wet conditions.

Important Riding Guidelines

• This product is forbidden on roads and highways unless local laws state otherwise. You must wear a safety helmet, knee and elbow pads, and other protective gear.
• Check assembly pieces before every ride to avoid accidents.
• Do not make sharp turns, as this may cause drifting and overturning, resulting in injury or unit damage.
• Do not operate near swimming pools or other bodies of water.

Riding Your Falcon-1

Ensure your Falcon-1 is fully assembled and correctly attached to your hoverboard with all straps, screws, and nuts secured. Ensure your hoverboard is properly maintained. Failure to do so may result in unit damage, serious bodily harm, or death.

After reviewing the pre-ride checklist, follow these steps to begin riding:

1. Turn on your hoverboard.
2. Sit comfortably in the Falcon-1 seat.
3. Place your feet on the foot rests.
4. Firmly grip both handlebars and slowly push them downward simultaneously to move forward.
5. When riding, pull both handlebars upwards simultaneously to brake.
6. To ride in reverse, stop the hoverboard, then slowly pull both handlebars upwards simultaneously.
7. To turn left, push the right handlebar down and pull the left handlebar up.
8. To turn right, push the left handlebar down and pull the right handlebar up.
