WARNING:
The brake is capable of
skidding the tire and throwing
an unsuspecting rider. Practice
in an open area free from
obstacles until you are familiar
with the brake function. Avoid
skidding to a stop as this can
cause you to lose control or
damage the rear tire.
Check the Razor web site for any updates on the latest repair and maintenance procedures.
Turn power switch off before conducting any maintenance procedures.
q Adjusting the Brake
REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE
Note: The pressurized air
supplies found at gasoline
stations are designed to inflate
high-volume automobile tires.
If you decide to use such
an air supply to inflate your
scooter tires, first make sure
the pressure gauge is working,
then use very short bursts to
inflate to the correct PSI. If
you inadvertently over-inflate
the tire, release the excess
pressure immediately.
1 To adjust the brake cable
play, thread the brake lever
adjuster in or out 1/4 to 1/2 turn
until the desired brake adjust-
ment is attained. Most
adjustments are complete at
this step. If brake still needs
further adjustment, proceed
to step 2 for rear or step 4 for
front.
2 If the brake has too much
slack, loosen the rear anchor
bolt and pull the brake wire
tighter. The distance of the
brake wire between the end of
the cable and the anchor bolt
should be between 37 and 44
mm.
3 If the brake rotor is dragging
on the brake pads use your
fingers to twist the caliper
adjuster in either direction until
rotor is centered between pads.
37-44 mm
1 Using a bicycle style tire
pump equipped for a Schrader-
type valve, inflate the tire to the
PSI indicated on the sidewall of
the tire.
q Inflating the Tires
Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of
manufacturing and your purchase.
