MaintenanceUpdated 2 months ago
The good news first: Your scooter is a very low-maintenance vehicle. And you can easily carry out the maintenance yourself without having to visit a workshop. Just pay attention to the following points:
- Check the air pressure in your tires regularly. The heavier you are, the higher the pressure should be; ideally, it should always be between 2.5 and 3.5 bar.
Too little air pressure can quickly lead to serious damage. If you have a poorly inflated or flat tire, stop driving immediately. - Check the screw connections on your scooter regularly. Strong vibrations, especially when driving or transporting it, can cause screws to come loose - similar to the wheel bolts on a car, for example.
If you notice that a screw has come loose, stop driving immediately and tighten it. If you need help with this, please contact us at any time. - Regularly tighten your front drum brake. The scooter has two independent braking systems. For your safety, it is necessary that both brakes are fully operational at all times.
The electric recuperation brake has no mechanical wear and does not need to be adjusted. It is also not possible to adjust this brake.
However, the mechanical drum brake is a wearing part. Make sure that it always grips well and adjust it if necessary.
If the braking performance decreases even though the brake cable is working, the drum may need to be cleaned or even replaced. - Regular cleaning of your scooter is important to avoid damage. Cleaning is essential, especially after driving off-road or on gritted roads in winter. You can find out what you need to consider when cleaning in a separate article here.
- Make sure that your scooter can dry after riding in the rain. Ideally, the scooter should not be permanently exposed to the weather, but should be kept in a covered and protected area.
Especially in the cold season, it is very important for the lifespan of the battery and motor that the scooter is not permanently stored at temperatures around freezing.
