10.1.1.2 Removal/refitting of front wheel (4-wheel version)
CAUTION: It is possible to damage the scooter if the wheels are re-fixed without using
copper paste after repairing a flat tyre!
• When refitting the wheel, copper paste must be applied to the drive shaft or axle! This
ensures that the wheel rim does not solidly jam onto the axle over time so that it cannot be
removed!
Requirements:
• Open spanner, 17 mm.
• Rubber hammer
• Copper paste
•
Jack the scooter up and place a wooden block or similar
under it to support it.
•
Remove the wheel locknut (1) with a 17 mm open-ended
spanner.
•
Remove wheel. It may be necessary to carefully free the
wheel off the axle by tapping lightly with the rubber hammer
on the rear face of the wheel
