Rules for Safe Riding

Teach Safety Rules to Children
While children can quickly develop the skill necessary to
ride this scooter, it is important to remember that their
judgment skills are still very immature. Unsupervised
riding by children can lead to serious injury. Before
children use this scooter, an adult should carefully
evaluate the riding area as well as the children’s skill level
and ability to ride this scooter safely. Children are not
always able to recognize or anticipate hazards, even when
they have been taught about them. There is no
acceptable substitute for direct adult supervision.
Teach appropriate safety rules to your child before
allowing operation of this scooter. These rules should
also be reviewed with neighborhood children or other
playmates who want to ride this scooter.
WARNING
Direct Adult Supervision Required
Make sure children know and follow
these rules for safe riding:
• Protective equipment should be
worn including helmet, knee pads,
and elbow pads.
• To prevent injury, keep away from cars
and streets.
• Never ride the scooter at night.
• Always wear shoes.
• Only one rider at a time.
RIDING RULES
Riding Rules
Make sure children know and follow these rules for
safe riding:
1. This product is meant for outdoor use only, private
property. It should not be used on streets or other
public thoroughfares.
2. Do not allow any child to ride the scooter in the street
or near moving (motorized) vehicles.
3. Do not allow any child to ride near bodies of water
(such as pools or creeks), obstructions (such as
furniture, low tree limbs or play equipment), or drop-offs
(such as stairs or decks).
4. Do not allow any child to ride the scooter in the dark.
A child could encounter unexpected obstacles and have
an accident. Operate the scooter only in the daytime or
a well-lit area.
5. Do not allow your child to ride on sloped or inclined
surfaces. Restrict your child’s riding to generally
level ground ONLY!
6. Do not allow your child to ride down or across a
steep slope.
- The scooter may gain unsafe speed.
- The scooter may tilt and tip over.
- The wheels could lose traction, causing the scooter
to slip.
7. Do not allow your child to ride up steep inclines. The
motor may stop and the scooter could roll backwards
at an unsafe speed.
8. Never put anything near any moving parts. Rotating
parts such as motor, belts, pulleys and wheels can
snag fingers, hair, etc., causing serious injury. Do not
allow operation of the scooter when it is on its side or in
an upside-down position.
9. Do not operate the scooter near flammable vapors
(gasoline, paint thinner, acetone, liquid wax, etc.).
The scooter’s electrical switches, like most electrical
switches, emit an internal spark when first turned on or
turned off. The presence of flammable liquids or vapors
could cause an explosion or a fire. Keep all flammable
products in tightly sealed containers and away from
the scooter.
10. Do not allow a child to operate the scooter without
direct adult supervision. To prevent unsupervised use of
the scooter, disconnect the motor harness from the
battery when the scooter is not in use.
11. The brake should be checked for proper function
before each use. Check brake adjustment regularly
(see page 10).
IMPORTANT! Please carefully read the owner’s information in this manual and teach your child about proper scooter
operation and rules for safe riding before allowing operation of this scooter.
