BRAKES

Your Motovox MVs10 Stand-up Scooter comes

equipped with mechanical disc brakes front

and rear for sure stops. It is important to be sure

that the brakes are working properly before

each ride. Checking their functionality is simple

and only takes a few seconds.

Before starting the engine, squeeze rst one

brake handle then the other while trying to roll

the scooter forward. The brake lever should

feel rm and should not touch the handlegrip before the brake engages. If

the brake lever squeezes too far and feels soft, it is probably time to adjust

your brakes.

With the engine o, locate the adjuster barrel on the brake lever for the

brake that needs adjusting. To tighten the brakes, screw the barrel adjust out,

or counter clockwise so it is moving away from the lever. This lengthens the

cable housing and makes the brakes activate quicker when pulled.

Make sure when you check the brakes after adjusting that you don’t over

tighten them and cause them to drag when not applied.

Once you have the brakes adjusted the way you want them, tighten down

the stop nut on the barrel adjuster, turning it clockwise or toward the brake

handle. Turn the stop nut as tight as you can with your ngers. Do not use

tools to tighten the stop nut.

If you can’t get enough adjustment on the barrel adjuster, you may have to

make an adjustment at the caliper end, or at the wheels. To do so, locate the

retainer nut at the end of the actuator arm

on the brake. Loosen it a few turns so that

the brake cable will slide through the retainer

bolt and rotate the arm slightly forward to

add more braking power, then tighten the

retainer nut back down. Repeat as needed

until the brake is working smoothly and rmly

without dragging.

Your Motovox MVs10 Stand-up Scooter utilizes

a thumb throttle mechanism for ease of use and

safe operation. The thumb throttle mechanism

is a low-maintenance unit, however it is

important to be sure that it is working properly

before riding. The thumb throttle should return

to idle position after accelerating when you let

o of it. Before you start your scooter it is always

important to check and make sure that it works

freely and returns to idle position. If it sticks when depressed,

it could lead to a very dangerous situation where you or those around you

could be injured or killed.

A tire blowout can lead to a dangerous situation, not to mention being very

inconvenient. It is important to inspect your tires before you ride.

• Inspect both tires for bumps and bulges in the sidewall and tread.

• Look closely for cuts or other damage.

• Inspect both tires for embedded objects like glass, nails or sharp rockes that

you may have picked up.

• Inspect the tread depth of your tires and replace them if the depth drops

below a tenth of an inch, or if you notice a serious reduction in traction.

• Check for the position of the valve stem. A tilted valve stem can mean that

the tube is slipping inside the tire and can cause a blowout.

• Be sure that both tires are inated to 25-28 PSI. If you use a high-powered

air hose, like those found at a gas station or tire shop, inate carefully as the

small tires on the MVs10 scooter will inate very quickly and could explode

if they are severely over inated.
