Page 7: Throttle
The throttle is located on the left-hand side of the handlebars in the form of a thumb piece as pictured below. Please be careful as these throttles are set to operate the Scout from stationary so any slight press of this will propel the Scout forward if the bike is in PAS 1 or above. The throttle can be used when taking off from a stationary start, as a cruise control or just if you need a break! Please be aware using the throttle will drain the battery much quicker than normal riding. -
Page 8: Brakes, Tyres, Chain
To avoid flats, keep tyre pressure at the recommended PSI. On off-road terrain a slightly lower PSI will provide more grip, but flats can occur. We recommend a pressure of between 5-35PSI. Scout tyres can be run at a very low PSI for greater traction over looser surfaces like sand, snow or mud. -
Page 9: Biking Range
DRIVING RANGE The range of your Scout is the distance the bike will travel on a single full charge of battery pack. The range values in this manual are estimates based on expected usage characteristics. Some of the factors which effect range include changes in elevation, speed, payload, and acceleration, number of starts and stops and ambient air temperatures. - Page 10 Pay close attention to the section in looking after your battery to prolong and maximise its life. ADJUSTING THE SEAT HEIGHT Use the quick release seat post clamp to release the seat post and pull upwards or push downwards to reach desired height. WATTWHEELS LTD...
