6. How to Ride
Place one foot on the baseboard, push forward with the other foot. Steer.
For enhanced cornering, lean slightly into the direction of the turn.
For controlled stops, apply the brake by stepping on the rear fender/brake. Razor
recommends that you practice applying the brake at various speeds and in an open area
free from obstructions before riding your scooter around others.
WARNING: Wheelies and other stunt-type riding reduces your ability to maneuver
and control your scooter. Take the necessary precautions, such as wearing appropriate
protective gear and practice in a area safe for stunt riding and free from obstructions.
7. Razor Safety Tips
A. Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an ANSI, SNELL, CPSC or ASTM
approved helmet and elbow and kneepads. Long sleeve shirt, gloves, long pants, shoes,
and elbow and knee pads are mandatory. Always wear a helmet when riding your scooter
and keep the chinstrap securely buckled. Always wear shoes. Don't ride barefoot or in
sandals. Keep shoelaces out of the way of wheels.
B. Ride on smooth, paved surfaces away from motor vehicles.
C. Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates and sudden surface changes. Scooter may
suddenly stop.
D. Avoid streets and surfaces with water, sand gravel, dirt, leaves, and other debris. weat
weather impares traction, braking and visibility. Avoid anything that could cause your front
wheel to stop. Bumps have the potential to stop the front wheel. When in doubt, avoid the
bumps.
E. Do not ride at night.
F. Brake will get hot from continious use. Do not touch after braking.
G. Avoid excess speed associated with downhill rides.
H. Adults must assist children in the inital adjustment procedures to unfold scooter, adjust
handlebar and steering to height, and finally to fold scooter.
I. Obey all local traffic and scooter riding laws and regulations.
J. Watch out for pedestrians
K. Check and secure all fasteners before every ride. Make sure the steering tube clamps,
steering tube extension quick release, and handlebars spring buttons are locked properly
in place before riding.
L. Replace worn or broken parts immediately. Call 1-866-GO-RAZOR for parts.
M. You will see people on TV and maybe even people you know doing tricks and stunts.
These are people who have been practicing on scooters for a very long time. Don't try
something until you are ready. Avoid steep inclines and don't ride too fast — you can lose
control and fall. Skateboard parks are not designed for scooters. Never ride in traffic or on
the street and watch your surroundings for pedestrians, bikers, boarders and skaters.
N. Keep your fingers and toes clear of the hinge when folding and unfolding your Razor
scooter.
O. Maintain a hold on the handlebars at all times.
