Q
SAFETY INFORMATION
riding.
● Always wear a helmet, gloves,
trousers (tapered around the cuff
and ankle so they do not fl ap),
and a bright colored jacket.
● Do not carry too much luggage
on the scooter. An overloaded
scooter is unstable. Use a strong
cord to secure any luggage to the
carriers. A loose load will affect
the stability of the scooter and
could divert your attention from
the road. (See page 1-5.)
EAU45371
Further safe-riding points
● Make sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
● Braking can be extremely diffi cult
on a wet road. Avoid hard brak-
ing, because the scooter could
slide. Apply the brakes slowly
when stopping on a wet surface.
● Slow down as you approach a
corner or turn. Once you have
completed a turn, accelerate
slowly.
● Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you
and open a door in your path.
● Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road con-
struction sites, and manhole
covers become extremely slip-
pery when wet. Slow down and
cross them with caution. Keep the
scooter upright, otherwise it could
slide out from under you.
● The brake pads and linings
could get wet when you wash
the scooter. After washing the
scooter, check the brakes before
Transporting the Scooter
Be sure to observe following instruc-
tions before transporting the scooter
in another vehicle.
● Remove all loose items from the
scooter.
● Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck
bed, and choke it in a rail to pre-
vent movement.
● Secure the scooter with tie-downs
or suitable straps that are at-
tached to solid parts of the scoot-
er, such as the frame or upper
front fork triple clamp (and not, for
example, to rubber-mounted han-
dlebars or turn signals, or parts
that could break). Choose the
location for the straps carefully
so the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
● The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the
scooter will not bounce exces-
sively during transport.
