Assembly Instructions Installing the Handlebars The handlebar has two main parts--the bar and the stem. The Ranger ST handlebar has been removed for shipping, and must be attached in order to ride. Position the bar in the center of the stem and ensure the correct position by aligning the cross hairs printed on the bar (see the pictures in Figure 1 below). - Page 13 Install Headlight • The Ranger ST headlight will come installed, however, removal and reinstallation can be done easily. • You can adjust the height and angle by loosening the bolt and nut, making the adjustment and then fastening the bolt back.
- Page 14 Check and Adjust Brakes • Ensure that the front brake is operated by the right brake handle and the rear brake is operated by the left brake handle. • Cycle rotors are extremely sharp and may cause harm. If further adjustment is required, please contact a local authorized cycle mechanic to properly adjust the braking mechanisms.
- Page 15 Charging the Battery • Make sure to charge the battery before your first ride. Vamoose recommends charging the battery 6-8 hours for the first charge. This helps the lithium ion battery top up for optimum performance. • On the charger adapter, the red light shows the battery is charging, while the green light indicates charging is complete.

Page 27: Hydraulic Disk Brakes
Hydraulic Disc Brakes All Vamoose Electric Cycles come standard with hydraulic disc brakes for maximum reliability and stopping power. Disc brakes operate by applying pressure to the brake levers which engage the brake pads against the brake rotor, creating friction that slows the wheel. The more pressure that is applied to the brake lever, the more pressure that is generated on the brake rotor, and the faster the cycle will come to a stop. -
