CHARGING THE BATTERY
Charging the Battery
Charging the Battery
Your Dirt Quad 500 may not have a fully charged battery; therefore you must charge the battery prior to use.
• Initial charge time: 12 hours.
• Recharge time: up to 12 hours, even if the light turns green.
Recommended maximum charging time is 24 hours.
• Always charge the battery immediately after riding.
• Fully charge battery before storing for extended
periods of time.
• Unplug charger from the wall outlet when not in use.
• Failure to recharge battery periodically may result in a
battery that will not accept a charge.
• Make sure the Dirt Quad 500 power switch is turned
OFF when unit is not in use. If the power switch is left
on for an extended period of time, the battery may reach
a stage at which it will no longer hold a charge.
Charger
Make sure the power switch is
in the OFF position.
PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
Brake
Check the brake for proper function. When you squeeze the
lever, the brake should provide positive braking action. When
you apply the brake with the speed control on, the brake cut-off
switch will stop the motor.
Tires
Periodically inspect the tires for excess wear and replace as
needed. Regularly check the tire pressure and inflate as needed.
If you get a flat tire, the inner tube can be patched or a new tube
can be purchased from Razor or an authorized repair center.
Frame and Handlebars
Check for cracks or broken connections. Although broken frames
are rare, it is possible for an aggressive rider to run into a curb
or object and wreck, bend or break the frame. Get in the habit of
inspecting your product on a regular basis.
• To ensure long battery life, never store the product in
freezing or below freezing temperatures! Freezing will
permanently damage the battery.
• Run time: Up to 60 minutes of continuous ride time.
Run time may vary depending on riding conditions, rider
weight, climate, and/or proper maintenance.
• Constant stopping and starting may shorten ride time.
• Battery life can vary depending on proper maintenance
and usage of the unit.

Plug the charger plug into wall
outlet. The light on the charger
should be green.

turn on, try a different outlet.

Slide, do not pull, charger port
cover to one side and plug charger

charger should turn red during
charging. The light will turn green
again when charging is complete.
Note: Slide cover back over the
charger port when charging
is complete.
Hardware/Loose Parts
Check and secure all fasteners before every ride. There should
not be any unusual rattles or sounds from loose parts or broken
components. If the unit is damaged, do not ride. Reference
"Safety Warnings" on pages 1 and 2 of this manual.

Safety Gear

Always wear proper protective gear, such as an approved safety
helmet. Elbow pads, kneepads, pants and long sleeves are
recommended. Always wear closed toe shoes (lace-up with rubber
soles) and keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the wheels,
motor and drive system. NEVER RIDE BAREFOOTED OR
IN SANDALS.
Laws and Regulations
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations.
Insurance
Do not assume that your existing insurance policies necessarily pro-
vide coverage for electric product use. Check with your insurance
company for information regarding insurance.

WARNING:
Use ONLY with the recommended
charger. Batteries are only to be
charged under adult supervision.
The charger is not a toy. Always
disconnect the charger before
wiping down and/or cleaning the
Dirt Quad 500 with a damp cloth.
The charger supplied with the
Dirt Quad 500 should be regularly
examined for damage to the cord,
plug, enclosure and other parts.
In the event of such damage, the
Dirt Quad 500 must not be charged
until it has been repaired or
replaced.
Chargers have built-in over-charge
protection to prevent battery from
being over-charged.
Note: If the charger gets warm
during regular use, this is a
normal response and is no cause
for concern. If your charger does
not get warm during use, it does
not mean that it is not working
properly.

if light turns green prior to 12 hours.
WARNING: Battery
